TURBOLAB Core is a small plug-and-play high-vacuum pumping system for research and development, laboratories and industrial applications.

HEX@ is an industrial vacuum controller that serves as a control center for vacuum pumps and systems

The three letters P-I-D send shivers down most spines; tuning may induce an actual headache. This has proven true for decades, but why is the concept so overwhelming? This article will attempt to answer that difficult question with simple considerations.

Whether captive or commercial, the heat-treat operation faces a tougher challenge for productivity/profitability than other departments of manufacturing.

The JOFRA ASC-400 multi-function process calibrator includes a built-in help function that offers a graphical solution to exactly how to connect the ASC-400s current setup.

A vacuum transducer has been developed that combines capacitance diaphragm sensor technology with piezo diaphragm and wide-range MEMS Pirani heat-loss sensor technology.

Remember physical paper maps? These were not easy to use and navigate while driving, and that’s why we tended to rely on our front-seat passenger to help guide the way or memorized the directions to our destination. These paper maps soon evolved into digital maps on specific GPS devices, and now everyone has a GPS navigation system available on their smartphone.

ControlEdge HC900 is an advanced safety and process controller with a modular, scalable design built to accommodate demanding applications and control a wide range of process equipment cost-effectively.

Many stakeholders involved in heat treating try to find answers as to why their products are discharged 100-300°F below the furnace setpoint temperature. We shall only consider continuous annealing furnaces used in metal heating for the purposes of this article.

Just like individuals, each business will have its unique challenges and some commonalities as well. For heat treaters, the need to maintain customer approvals, industry accreditations, equipment calibration and furnace efficiency are vital to their current and future ability to provide heat-treatment services. Yet these are not easy to achieve in optimal conditions, and today’s world is indisputably suboptimal.
