Vacumeermachines worden in veel keukens nog op dezelfde manier beoordeeld. Hoe diep trekt hij vacuüm, blijft de seal goed dicht en wat kost de machine. Wat mij betreft hanteren we een hele andere checklist. 1. Kan iedereen het apparaat bedienen? 2. Levert de machine altijd hetzelfde resultaat, ongeacht wie hem gebruikt? 3. Versimpelt hij het werk, of voegt hij handelingen toe? 4. Verlaagt hij de werkdruk, of verdeelt hij die beter over de dag? 5. Wat is de impact op mijn totale operatie? In dat laatste punt zit het verschil tussen een machine die iets toevoegt aan je keuken en een machine die onderdeel wordt van hoe je werkt. Zelfs de eenvoudigste machines vacumeren producten met een goede seal. Onderdeel worden van een optimale workflow, dat kunnen er maar een paar.

Be honest, how many of you are wearing this when changing Gas Compression thermal blankets? I can tell you from my experience, it’s extremely rare. In many cases, this level of PPE is what’s required to protect maintenance crews from Cr(VI) exposure and the associated cancer risk. Without the right precautions, contaminated thermal blankets can expose crews through inhalation, skin and eye contact. And honestly, given the choice, I wouldn’t want to wear this level of PPE either. That’s why eliminating the risk at the source is so important. Don’t accept the risk. Eliminate it. Aletek Gas Compression Thermal Blankets are different. Unlike other thermal blankets, they are Cr(VI)-safe and do not create unsafe levels of Cr(VI). I know which option I’d prefer any day. How common is this level of PPE when thermal blankets are replaced on your site? #CrVI #GasCompression #OilAndGas #WorkerSafety #ThermalBlankets

On aina hienoa nähdä, kun asiakkaan tarve ja oman tiimin osaaminen kohtaavat näin konkreettisella tavalla. Scan Global Logistics uudisti Vantaan toimistonsa, ja meidän tehtävämme AJ Tuotteilla oli auttaa rakentamaan työympäristö, joka toimii paremmin arjessa, palvelee henkilöstöä ja asiakkaita sekä näyttää ja tuntuu Scan Global Logisticsilta. Projektissa kokonaisuus ulottui tilojen ja kalustuksen suunnittelusta 3D-visualisointiin, kalustevalintoihin, projektinhallintaan, toimitukseen ja asennukseen. Lopputuloksena syntyi yhtenäinen työympäristö, jossa jokaiselle työntekijälle on toimiva työpiste ja riittävästi säilytystilaa, mutta samalla myös neuvottelu-, asiakas- ja kohtaamistilat saivat kokonaan uuden ilmeen. Erityisen mukavaa on tietysti kuulla asiakkaalta, että uudistus näkyy sekä arjen sujuvuudessa että henkilöstön tyytyväisyydessä ja että myös tiloissa vierailevilta asiakkailta ja yhteistyökumppaneilta on tullut positiivista palautetta. Iso kiitos Scan Global Logisticsille luottamuksesta sekä meidän projektimyyntimme Mikael Pekkalalle ja koko toteutukseen osallistuneelle tiimille hienosta työstä! 👏 Koko asiakastarinan ja kuvat uudistuneista tiloista löydät alta 👇

For years the guided-wave industry competed on a single number, the distance you could screen from one position. I have seen vendors claim 20 metres. One claimed 100. At those distances the resolution is far too low to read wall thickness, and a lot of inspection teams found that out the hard way, which is exactly why confidence in the method dropped. We built the A1050 Ranger around the opposite idea. Its working range is about 3 metres, and we state that on purpose. You fit it around a pipe or a pole, it runs a 360° circumferential scan, and the B-scan shows you where corrosion sits and roughly how bad it is. The real value is reaching the spots you cannot inspect any other way, such as under pipe supports, under insulation, or below a pole's ground line. The Ranger will not give you remaining wall thickness, and I will not pretend otherwise. It points you to the corroded area, and you confirm and size that area afterwards with classical high-resolution UT. The two methods work together rather than one replacing the other. Check it out on the product page: https://lnkd.in/eNF_qi5F If you run corrosion inspections, send this to a colleague who has been burned by long-range promises before.

Corrosion under pipe supports causes a large share of leaks in process piping, and it sits in one of the hardest places to inspect. It builds at the contact point between the pipe and its support, where water and dirt collect and stay. Inspecting it the conventional way usually means lifting the pipe off its support, so you add scaffolding, permits and downtime before you even take a reading. The A1050 Ranger reaches that spot without lifting the pipe. You fit it around the pipe next to the support and it runs a 360° circumferential scan with dry-point-contact transducers and no couplant. The resulting B-scan shows where corrosion has concentrated around and under the support. It handles corrosion under insulation in the same way, on lines you would otherwise have to strip just to look. The scanner covers cylindrical steel from 70 to 380 mm in diameter. It locates the corroded zones and leaves the sizing to your high-resolution UT afterwards. Request your one-page technical sheet on the scan modes, the diameter range and typical pipe applications. Comment the word RANGER below and I will send it across.

A Fortune 500 client today told us after a 4 ft. flood in their facility, every anti-fatigue mat was destroyed except their AcroMats. Here's why.👇 ➡️Extruded / Open Cell Most mats on the market today are extruded using PVC foam or a blend of PVC foam, nitrile and other products. Extruding rubber is the easiest and least expensive approach and why so many providers sell extruded mats. However, to extrude rubber, you need to add a percentage of PVC foam, which makes the construction “open cell” – i.e., prone to absorbing liquids and chemicals, bloating, cracking, etc. ➡️Molded / Close Cell Our clients are manufacturing companies. Wet, oily, chemical-filled facilities. For mats to hold up in these facilities for longer than 6-12 months, they need to be made differently. Our mats are molded from closed cell nitrile rubber foam with no component of PVC foam. This translates to 100% imperviousness to liquids–including water from a flood. As a result, when the flood happened, all open cell mats soaked up the water and became useless. The AcroMats got wet but were unaffected. ➡️What to Look For If you have a wet/oily environment, here are a few action items. 1. Look for closed cell over open cell mats 2. Look for molded over extruded mats 3. Look for warranty protections 4. Ask for product tests and results 5. Get a sample and do your own tests, like below.

Hvis vi vil have mere dansk frugt og grønt på hylderne, er vi også nødt til at tale om produktivitet og konkurrenceevne. Hos Goodness Gardens, IncGoodness Gardens, Inc i New York har fire 4XROBOTS4XROBOTS fjernet en manuel flaskehals i produktionen af frisk basilikum. Processen kører nu dobbelt så hurtigt, to medarbejdere er flyttet til mere tekniske opgaver, og produktionen er blevet mindre afhængig af manuelt, repetitivt arbejde. Det er egentlig det, jeg synes er interessant ved casen. Ikke robotterne i sig selv, men hvad der sker, når man får fjernet en flaskehals og kan bruge medarbejderne på opgaver, hvor de skaber mere værdi. Den diskussion er relevant i Danmark. Hvis vi gerne vil have mere danskproduceret frugt og grønt, skal det også kunne betale sig at producere det herhjemme. Her kommer automation til at spille en vigtig rolle. Ikke som et mål i sig selv, men som en måde at gøre produktionen mere robust og konkurrencedygtig på. Hvordan får vi den diskussion højere op på dagsordenen i dansk gartneri?

Most people walk through a factory and look at the machines. I look at the gaps between them. After decades in industrial logistics, that's where I've learned the real story lives, in how material moves, where it waits, and what actually happens when something goes wrong. I was reminded of this recently watching the ground operation at an airport. Dozens of teams, vehicles and systems working in perfect coordination. Invisible to every passenger. Right up until a delay makes it suddenly, painfully visible and the airport is crowded. Factories work the same way. The equipment gets the attention. The flow between the equipment gets inherited, patched and quietly worked around until it can't be anymore. The best logistics systems are the ones nobody has to think about. What's the biggest hidden bottleneck you've seen in a factory or operation?

Different countries. Different industries. Surprisingly similar challenges. After 36 years working with industrial customers, I can often predict which topics will come up before a meeting even starts. It's usually one of these: - Finding skilled people - Improving safety - Increasing capacity - Making operations more predictable The products to be handled may vary completely, but the operational challenges rarely do. What surprises many companies is that their challenges aren't as unique as they think. Some of the best solutions I've seen come from borrowing ideas across industries. A fix that worked in food & beverage might be exactly what a logistics operation needs. The products, loads, and environments are different, the underlying problem often isn't. After all these years, this is the lesson I keep coming back to: Don't focus too much on what makes your project different. Focus on what can be learned from projects that came before it. That's one reason I still enjoy walking factory floors after all this time. There's always something new to learn, especially when you look beyond your own industry.

Italdesign has just received EN 9100:2018 certification for the aerospace, space and defence sectors, issued by Bureau Veritas. It's a formal recognition of work we've been doing for some time, now verified against the same standard used across the aerospace supply chain, at our sites in Moncalieri and Nichelino. What matters most to me is the principle behind it: we asked an independent body to assess our processes, rather than describing our own quality ourselves. That distinction, being checked rather than self-declared, is worth more than the certificate itself. Thanks to Giulio Toesca, Barbara Crivello and all the Italdesign team that made this possible, across engineering, quality and operations. I’m very proud of all of you! #Aerospace #EN9100 #Italdesign

Without software, a vehicle doesn't move. Without hardware, a vehicle doesn't exist. These are the words I used, last Monday, to describe, to the many journalists who joined us at the press conference here in Moncalieri, where we walked through the details of UST ‘s acquisition of a majority stake in Italdesign, what this partnership is really about. On one side, Italdesign's long history: almost 60 years of legendary projects that have, in many ways, become part of all your lives, and a vertically integrated approach that has defined us since the day we were founded, spanning design, engineering and production. On the other, UST's ability to build software and artificial intelligence systems capable of transforming how companies work, creating speed, value and purpose. In our historic field, automotive, the synergies are the easiest to see and understand. But common ground exists just as much in our newer areas of expansion, aerospace, robotics, and across the wider world of innovation in which we have worked successfully for decades. Both Krishna Sudheendra, UST's CEO, whom I thank for choosing to meet the entire Italdesign team in person, and I know one thing: no visionary project holds up without talented, motivated and determined people behind it. That is the real center of this partnership: the mutual trust our teams have already begun building from day one, and the ability to bring together vision and excellence to widen the horizons ahead, for Italdesign and for UST alike. To our people, my thanks, for everything achieved so far and for all the major projects that will come to light in the months ahead. Italdesign's new chapter has already begun. This is where the future of software-defined mobility, robotics, aerospace and beyond is being built.

Last week, we brought our global team together in Lisse for the internal launch of VibSys, our next-generation vibration monitoring system. Product launches are often associated with technology. In reality, they are about alignment. Before bringing a new solution to the market, everyone in the organization needs to understand not only what it does, but why it exists, which challenges it addresses, and how it creates and delivers value to customers. Throughout the week, the teams behind VibSys and Sphere shared their experience, vision and lessons learned. At the same time, colleagues from across the organization challenged assumptions, asked questions and explored what the system will mean in practice. A successful launch is not achieved when a product is ready. It is achieved when an organization is ready. After last week, I am confident we are ready for the next phase: delivering VibSys to our customers and shipping the first pre-orders. #KnowledgeSharing #TeamDevelopment #VibrationMonitoring #IndustrialReliability

Machines are more digitally connected than ever. This creates great opportunities for remote monitoring, faster diagnostics, and better coordination between engineering and maintenance. But connecting alone does not improve reliability, and it also raises an important question: does connectivity preserve control, or gradually transfer it to a supplier? A monitoring system may perform well today, but machinery remains in operation for many years. During its lifetime, software platforms will change, security requirements will develop, and new analysis methods will become available. A connected monitoring architecture should therefore preserve choice. Organizations should be able to determine where information is processed, who can access it, and which systems it connects to. Open interfaces and standard protocols are not merely technical preferences. They help organizations retain control over their infrastructure and adapt without replacing everything around the machine. Connectivity should create freedom instead of dependency. The goal is to build an environment in which technologies can evolve while reliability responsibilities remain clear. We explore this issue further in our bookazine Vibration, with practical articles on vibration monitoring, machine protection, and maintenance strategy: https://lnkd.in/eA48HZ-C #MachineReliability #ConditionMonitoring #Connectivity #VibrationMonitoring

Abril não é tarde demais para estruturar o ano. Planejamento estratégico é um exercício contínuo de processo e responsabilidade. Ao longo da minha trajetória na I9TMG, desde acompanhar meu pai nas primeiras decisões até assumir a posição de CEO, aprendi que crescer sem planejamento é apenas expandir complexidade. Planejar exige definir prioridades, entender riscos e organizar recursos com método. Para quem lidera, o ponto de partida costuma ser simples: • Onde realmente queremos chegar até dezembro? • Quais decisões estruturais ainda não foram tomadas? • O que precisa ser ajustado agora para evitar correções mais caras depois? Revisar o planejamento em abril é sinal de maturidade. Ver o que tem funcionado ou não. Comenta aqui seu método mais eficiente para garantir que sua empresa está caminhando para o lugar esperado.

O custo do fertilizante muitas vezes começa longe da lavoura. Nos últimos dias, o mercado global voltou a reagir às tensões no Oriente Médio, principalmente pelo risco logístico envolvendo o Estreito de Ormuz, uma das rotas marítimas mais estratégicas do mundo. Essa passagem conecta produtores relevantes de insumos utilizados na produção de fertilizantes, como Qatar, Emirados Árabes, Arábia Saudita e Omã, responsáveis por grande parte da oferta de matérias-primas como amônia, ureia e enxofre. Quando existe instabilidade nessa região, o primeiro impacto costuma aparecer no transporte marítimo e nos preços internacionais. Hoje, o Oriente Médio responde por cerca de 35% do comércio marítimo global de ureia, e o Brasil continua sendo altamente dependente dessas importações. Isso significa que qualquer alteração logística ou geopolítica pode refletir rapidamente no custo dos fertilizantes utilizados pelo agronegócio brasileiro. Como CEO, acredito que acompanhar esses movimentos deixou de ser apenas um exercício de análise de mercado. Cadeias industriais estão cada vez mais conectadas globalmente, e fatores geopolíticos, logísticos e energéticos acabam influenciando diretamente o custo de produção, o planejamento das safras e as decisões de investimento. No curto prazo, especialistas indicam que o maior impacto tende a ser no preço, não necessariamente na disponibilidade do produto. Ainda assim, é um sinal claro de como eventos distantes podem alterar o equilíbrio de mercados inteiros. Para quem atua na indústria e no agronegócio, entender essas conexões é parte da responsabilidade de gestão. Na sua visão, esse cenário pode pressionar os custos das próximas safras no Brasil?

One of our customers was facing an environmental audit from the institution of Tübingen. They needed to prove compliance with regulations, and they were able to do it by pressing a button in our solution. Our projects usually run 3-6 months. During that time, customers prepare for something most teams dread: an environmental audit. The kind that determines whether they stay compliant or face bigger problems. The customer wrote after their audit in Tübingen: "We passed the audit - and we got all we needed at the press of a button using your solution." They could walk the regulators step by step through the process. Full visibility, zero stress. And that’s not the only feedback we’ve received. Our customers around the globe have had the same experience: “We had the information at hand and could deliver on the spot.” The real value shows up on audit day. That’s when pressing a single button turns months of worry into one line of proof: "We passed." So when you ask yourself, “How do we know it will work?”, ask for the proof - speak to IPOINT.

Understanding Maturity Assessment using the example of PCF or LCA verification. At iPoint, we use a framework of 11 key perspectives to assess an organization's readiness for LCA automation. One way to better understand this is by looking at how we evaluate maturity levels — from Level 1 (no experience) to Level 5 (fully systematic and verified). Today we are looking at the mid-range maturity level, level 3. Let’s take the example of Product Carbon Footprint (PCF) verification. Level 3 represents a company that already has first-hand experience with PCF verification—perhaps for one or a few products. More importantly, the company shows a solid understanding of documentation and data handling requirements. This structure allows us to evaluate where an organization stands: Level 1: No experience, no clear understanding of requirements. Level 3: First verifications completed, with a growing grasp of what’s needed. Level 5: Systematic documentation, embedded standards, and an infrastructure that enables smooth and fast verification. 💡 Why does this matter? Because the better the internal documentation, the smoother the certification process becomes. Verifiers can move more efficiently when data flows are transparent and aligned with the rulebooks. In contrast, unclear documentation and buried code slow everything down. 👉 Well-prepared organizations don’t just pass verification—they accelerate it. PCF verification is used as an example to illustrate how maturity levels for LCA or PCF automation can be assessed. How are you getting started into the journey towards PCF and LCA automation? Which role plays getting prepared for PCF verification in your organization? #LCA #PCF #Sustainability #Verification #CarbonFootprint #DigitalProductPassport #Automation

ISA101 er ikke en styleguide og den gode løsning er ikke kun teknisk. For godt og vel 10 år siden, begyndte bl.a. Thomas Hammerholt Madsen, Anders Dolling og Peder Steffensen at arbejde med ISA101 til at designe gode HMI’er til proces- og automationssystemer. Det er der kommet mange gode løsninger og meget god erfaring ud af - f.eks. at ISA101 ikke kun er en styleguide. Det er en proces der skal fange brugerbehov og sikre at løsningen lever op til disse. I mandags var det allerede 3 år siden at jeg fik lov tage min UX-kuffert med ombord på Init-skuden i Silkeborg, og sikke meget vi har lært af hinanden siden. En af de ting vi af ting vi har lært, og som vi efterhånden er ret gode til hos Init, er at løsninger ikke kun er tekniske, og at gode HMI’er ikke kun bygges med en styleguide. De handler også om de mennesker der skal bruge løsningen i sidste ende. Det har jeg reflekteret lidt over her.

I was chatting with one of our clients the other day, and—surprise surprise—the age-old debate came up: screw compressors vs. piston compressors. Classic. Now, I’m not an expert on this (and I don’t pretend to be), but I’ve heard enough of these conversations to know the answer is never as simple as picking a winner. Let’s talk piston compressors first. Powerful. Reliable. They’ve been the go-to for heavy-duty applications for years—especially in industries where power is the top priority. But then screw compressors enter the scene... and things get interesting. 👉 They’re quieter. 👉 They’re more compact—often matching the performance of bulkier piston units 👉 And some claim they’re more energy-efficient... I’ll leave that one open. The data’s still rolling in. Here’s what is clear: The market’s shifting. More and more industries are leaning towards screw compressors—not necessarily because they’re "better" in the absolute sense, but because they’re more in tune with what is needed. Like any good engineering decision, this one deserves though and the right tool for the job.

Feeler gauges or test bench? Feeler gauges can be useful — if you’re tuning your kid’s bike. But when you’re working with a twin-screw rotor spinning at 8,000 rpm inside a high-efficiency compressor, precision matters. A small variation can have a big impact. That’s why we measure backlash on a test bench during production. Not una tantum. Every. Single. Time. Here’s our process: 🔹 We test a male master rotor against every female in the batch. 🔹 Then we reverse the setup — female master, tested with every male. It’s a thorough method. Not always the most common, but essential when consistency and accuracy are the goal — and for us, they are.
