Siemens technologies supports plan to create digital chemical facility
A collaboration between Siemens Digital Industries (DI) and chemical manufacturer Lianhetech Seal Sands is laying the foundations for a digital future at its plant on Teesside.
Modified for medical use
German ultrasound specialist, Sonotec, has developed an air bubble detector for a medical device for performing hyperbaric major autohemotherapy, which ensures that no gas passes into the patient’s vein during the reinfusion. The new ultrasonic sensor combines safety, functionality and design into one small device.
Ultrasonic testing
Sonotec’s new digital ultrasonic testing device – Sonaphone – will feature on a special Predictive Maintenance display in hall 17 at Hannover Messe (25th to 29th April).
Broadband sensors: Pinpointing leaks in compressed air systems
Ultrasonic testing devices have long been established in the field of predictive maintenance to detect leaks in compressed air systems. These devices usually record a frequency range around 40kHz. Now, Sonotec has introduced Sonaphone ultrasonic testing devices that, it says, improve and simplify leak detection for the user
Digital ultrasonic testing device for Maintenance 4.0
A company’s successful implementation of maintenance 4.0 requires device technology that meets networking and mobility requirements. Information on the condition of machines and systems must be available promptly for process optimisation, energy cost minimisation and early problem detection.
Broadband ultrasonic analysis
Sonotec’s new Sonaphone ultrasonic testing device enables broadband analysis of ultrasound signals in a frequency range from 20 to 100kHz. This, together with the company’s LeakExpert app, enables leaks on compressed air and vacuum systems and other industrial gas lines to be detected and automatically analysed with pinpoint accuracy.
Ultrasound family
SONOTEC Ultraschallsensorik Halle is presenting its solutions for industrial maintenance for the first time at Maintec in Birmingham. The ultrasound specialists will be focusing on its SONAPHONE family.
