Total solution for vertical movements combined with rotation of the rod CCM`s TX actuator is a compact and practical actuator for a combination of linear and rotary movement. The linear movement is performed with a toothed belt guide in aluminum profile of 40 mm wide. A rotating rod is mounted on the carriage of the linear actuator. The linear movement is available in stroke lengths from 70 to 320 mm and suitable for vertical displacement of 3 kg, or in horizontal direction of 5 kg. The maximum speed is 1.5 m/s. The actuator can be supplied with a stepper or servo motor. The rotational movement is realized via a stepper motor with plantar reduction resulting in a maximum torque of 2 Nm and a rotation speed of 80 rpm. The TX actuator is an ideal solution for applications with XYZ-phi systems, such as pick-and-place and assembly systems or 3D printers and glueing systems. The linear axes of CCM and standard adapters are in that case used for fast and effective assembly of the systems. ATB Automation supplies the acuators and XYZ-phi

Selo offers advanced technological solutions to customers in the international food industry. After successful experiences in the past, Selo is now offering Gpi’s Kelstream Scraped Surface Heat exchanger as recommended machine for the inline heating and cooling of (highly) viscous products like ketchup, sauces, starch slurries and other products. To date, Gpi has supplied eight Kelstreams for various Selo production lines. In addition, two Kelstreams were supplied to Selo’s Technology Center earlier this year. The Center allows customers to test their own recipes and discover what their process and end product will look like. This allows customers to become familiar with the equipment at a very early stage. “Although Gpi convincingly demonstrated the effectiveness of its Kelstream scraped surface heat exchanger, we were equally pleased about being able to work with such a reliable partner” says Willibrord Woertman, CEO of Selo. The Kelstream Scraped Surface Heat exchanger

Improving safety and performance of gas systems Your True Cost of Gas Distribution May Be More Than You Think. Overlooking Issues Could Yield Significant Consequences. The job of a gas distribution system is fairly simple: safely and efficiently deliver specialty or utility gases from a high-pressure source to points of use through a facility at the required pressure and flow rate. Yet, not all gas distribution systems are intuitive to operate, easy to maintain, or reliable in their operation. Whether you need new, more reliable gas distribution systems professionally built or you simply need advice on how to improve your existing systems, we have you covered.

For a client in the drinking water supply sector, M.I.P. supplied a conical storage tank of 120m³ with a diameter of 4 metres (support on GRP skirt) for the storage of calcareous sludge. The ferrous drinking water sludge captures the H2S released during fermentation processes and thus ensures that there is no odour nuisance towards the environment and that the corrosive H2S no longer damages the metal parts of the bio-fermentation plant. The tank was fitted with an aluminium ladder with 4 work platforms at different heights. At the top of the tank a GRP (composite) circular border was provided.
