With a new series of washing machines for the shaping tools of the extrusion machines, GEA is meeting the global demand for more efficiency and sustainability. Thanks to their improved hydraulic circuits and simplified mechanics they use less energy and water.
To enable new applications and facilitate weighted measurements, Hottinger Brüel & Kjær (HBK) has launched its new user-friendly weighing terminal, the WTX110-D.
In the context of the Covid-19 epidemic, many companies with large facilities are looking for an effective disinfection solution to protect and reassure their employees. Most devices available for disinfection by fumigation are static and are used to treat each typical surface in turn, requiring the intervention of an operator who must be protected.
They also involve wet spraying, which could potentially cause damage, thus limiting their area of application. In order to provide a solution for these problems, Sherpa Mobile Robotics (SMR), a company within the innovation branch of NORCAN, has partnered with DEVEA to develop a mobile, autonomous disinfection system in the form of a Sherpa robot, equipped with an innovative but proven spraying device which generates a dry mist. The ASD is compliant with the NFT 72-281 version 2014 standard, and the virucide, based on hydrogen peroxide, has an MA (marketing authorisation), guaranteeing its 99.99% effectiveness against viruses. It is currently the only device of this type certified on the market.
It's not only taste that counts - but also special service: our customer Eureka System realized an innovative robot capable to follow even G-code toolpaths, fully controlled by KeMotion - our ready-to-use robotics solution. Eureka System was ready to invite you to its stand at MECSPE in Parma. Unfortunately, the fair was cancelled on Monday, October 26th, due to the new Covid19 measures of the Italian government. It can only take place virtually. When, where, and how will be announced at a later date. In the meantime, watch this great video of the robot demo.
