Intertronics has supplied Apacor, an in vitro medical diagnostics manufacturer, with preeflow eco-PEN300, a precision volumetric dispensing system that provides accuracy and repeatability.

By investing in a TruLaser Weld 5000 laser welding cell from TRUMPF, brothers Kevin and Marcel Kempf took an entrepreneurial risk. They only had a few parts optimised for the new process. With a clever idea, their employees were motivated to change this in a short space of time and the results were so good that many customers now only want laser-welded parts.

TR was approached by a global leading EV manufacturer to design and develop a brand new and complex component for its latest model. It needed to work with an experienced partner who could take on the challenge to produce a unique spring and spool solution for its vehicle's central console.

IET Combustion, a global manufacturer of combustion ovens, has turned to Essentra Components to provide the essential hinges, latches and handles to make its ovens safer to use, and meet the demand for continuous operation.

The Salzburger Aluminium Group (SAG Group) integrates innovative lightweight construction into vehicle construction, thereby helping to cut CO2 emissions. These components are welded using patented Cold Metal Transfer and WireSense technology from Fronius.

At an onshore Windfarm in Denmark, 42 wind turbine blades were exhibiting signs of severe erosion on the leading edges. Previously, the company had used pre-formed shells that were bonded onto the substrate to provide leading edge protection. However, this process proved to be extremely time-consuming and expensive, so the company turned to Belzona for an alternative.

British company Panorama Antennas has automated one of its assembly tasks with a collaborative robot (cobot) solution. The solution was provided by leading robotics and automation distributor RARUK Automation and integrated by Universal Robots Certified Systems Integrator (CSI) VIKASO.

In the heart of the Netherlands, two large tank farms chose cold bonding to face a daunting challenge: over 1,100 brackets needed to be installed on live, fully operational tanks filled with highly flammable liquids. Traditional welding was impossible so the customers chose Belzona's cold bonding solution.

With PLUS Automation exhibiting at the CBM's (Confederation of British Metalforming) Mini Expo on Fasteners on 4 September, the company reports that the latest SMART sensor technology has been used to detect fasteners where it wasn't possible or affordable before.

"Life is too short to drink bad coffee." On the basis of this philosophy, Gerard Smit established the company Technivorm in 1964 and invented the well-known Moccamaster coffee machine. To ensure the perfect coffee, the Dutch manufacturer uses a new test line which was automated by Bosch Rexroth and its Certified Excellence Partner Rimas Technology.
