Preventing the leakage of fluids is a critical requirement in the transport of a fluid (liquid or gas), in industrial processes and in the operation of machinery where liquids are used. The fluids vary in substance, sometimes merely steam or water, but often they are toxic or hazardous fluids and pose a great financial and environmental risks if not handled correctly.

For more than 90 yrs, PWB Anchor has been supplying industry with a wide range of premium quality lifting equipment. Amongst these, are small and very large chain links. With a diameter up to 50 mm these large links can weigh upwards of 25 Kgs. So the flash welding machine that produces these links are critical to the operation.
Matt Wagenfeld, the Production Manager at PWB Anchor, has had problems with this machine in the past. Many so called ‘engineers’ have tried and effectively ‘jerry built’ the equipment to keep going. But when it decided to stop completely, Matt had to find someone who could fix it right, once and for all.

Australia’s food and beverage manufacturing industry is a major money earner for the country, with over $100 billion in revenue in 2016 (up from over $96 billion in 2014-15) and employing over 130,000 Australians. The food and beverage industry is also renowned for its uptake of the latest and most modern technologies to ensure that the best possible hygiene and output levels are maintained and the country’s reputation for high quality food continues.
Not every financial institution has the expertise needed to look after manufacturing businesses. Manufacturers looking for the right financial partner should consider one that provides customised financial options through a deep understanding of the sector.

Servitization is not a particularly new phenomenon. The term was defined in the late 1980s in an article in the European Management Journal1, but the concept of bundling service packages with products to add value goes back to the 1960s and the innovative, ‘power-by-the-hour’2 concept of Bristol Siddeley, a British aero engine manufacturer later acquired by Rolls-Royce. It offered a complete engine and accessory service that enabled operators to forecast service and replacement costs more accurately and eliminated the need for them to purchase stocks of engines and spares. Yet despite being around for 50 years, it’s only relatively recently that servitization has become a talking point, especially in the manufacturing industry.
In a dynamic market where electricity costs are rising and commodity prices are falling, Australia’s industrial sector is looking at new ways to improve their bottom line and maximise efficiency. This whitepaper explains the benefits of adopting a more efficient technological infrastructure of medium voltage drives (MV Drives) over traditional low voltage drive technology (LV VSDs) – a crucial area that is often overlooked.

Some of the most dangerous industries include transport, warehousing and manufacturing, which means high-speed doors need the proper safety mechanisms to prevent damage to people and goods. This whitepaper introduces the Albany RapidRoll 500, built to solve warehousing and cold room problems, as well as reduce running costs and overheads.
Manufacturers in all segments, from food and beverage to industrial machinery and equipment, know that digitalisation is coming and they need to adapt or risk obsolescence. They all want to find an easy way to do that. But there’s no easy method for achieving digitalisation.
While manufacturers are making small steps, the true potential of digitalisation will come from new revenue streams and outcome based selling. That type of strategy must start at the top, and start now.
While projections on rate of adoption and advice on how to begin may differ, there is one mandate that seems to be universally prescribed by industry experts: Do something, and do it soon.
Start your digitalisation journey now by downloading the Infor whitepaper below and find out how to future-proof your business.
In the selection and configuration of drives for the food and beverage industry, food safety is only the most obvious major concern. Various other issues must also be addressed with common challenges including adverse environmental conditions that must be kept under control from the outset. A knowledgeable specialist in this field, Nord Drivesystems has configured clean and resilient systems based on efficient smooth-surface motors for a malt house.

Today brewing companies are facing a multitude of challenges. On the one hand, the number of different beer styles is increasing exponentially. On the other hand, fierce competition is ratcheting up cost pressures. In addition, breweries are expanding production to offer seasonal varieties of beer and beer-mix drinks, but doing so requires producing in smaller brew batches.
Many breweries around the world have turned to Siemens’ Braumat process control system, which ensures this with Simatic IT, standard products for reporting, transparent production and consistent company data that the company has developed in collaboration with longstanding business partners.
