Launch of high-pressure compressors
Sauer Compressors has announced a new series of high-pressure compressors for industrial applications and says the SAUER Orkan series is now available in the first four standard types.
Selecting the right pneumatic conveying equipment
Choosing the most suitable systems and components for conveying can have a significant impact on operational performance – guaranteeing product quality, avoiding blockages and reducing costs. Atlas Copco spoke to H&P about selecting the right pneumatic conveying equipment which can be challenging, with many considerations coming into play
Maximising compressor performance remotely
Complex, modern machinery requires both regular maintenance as well as periodic overhauls carried out by expert technicians. These are usually deployed or trained by the original equipment manufacturer (OEM). Today, for those involved in industrial gas compression, the use of remote support technology is proving to be invaluable as a tool that can help to minimise downtime and expedite repairs.
White Paper offers guidance on Fixed vs Variable Speed Drive Screw Compressors
While some compressed air providers will advocate the use of Variable Speed Drive (VSD) screw compressors in all applications, a new White Paper authored by HPC challenges this assumption.
Atlas Copco Compressors appoints Ian Ainsworth as Business Line Manager
Atlas Copco Compressors has announced the appointment of Ian Ainsworth as Business Line Manager, Sales and Marketing, of its Compressor Technique Service division in the UK. Ian succeeds Paul Clark, who retired at the end of March 2023. Commenting on his new position, Ainsworth said “I am looking forward to building on the work Paul and the team have done over the years. We remain committed to delivering compressed air solutions that reduce cost, increase uptime and improve energy efficiencies for our customers. Our focus will be customer-centric with an emphasis on our advanced services offering and building on and growing our customer base.”
ELGi Introduces advanced compressed air solutions
ELGi has unveiled its portfolio of oil-free, oil-lubricated compressors, and accessories designed to address European customers' needs for low life cycle cost compressed air solutions, at Hannover Messe
Digital sensor data demonstrates the power to transform compressed air energy consumption
Everybody is talking about digitalisation – and sometimes it is the simplest applications that demonstrate its power to transform. By opening a window to visualise their compressed air energy consumption in real time, production teams are defending against rising costs and achieving operating efficiencies with relatively little effort. H&P spoke to Darren Pratt, Industrial Instrumentation Product Manager for SICK UK.
Postponing compressed air maintenance is a false economy
As energy prices continue to soar across Europe, operators may be tempted to delay the recommended maintenance intervals and routine service on compressed air systems in order to save cost. However, this can be an expensive mistake says Gary Spence, Service Operations Leader from CompAir.
Waterford Crystal realises significant energy savings with the ELGi EG Series
Waterford Crystal, Irish manufacturer of fine luxury crystal, has announced it chose the EG Series EG22V from ELGi Compressors Europe to modernise the compressed air system at its plant in Waterford, Ireland.
Atlas Copco powers the drive for green hydrogen production
Building on decades of experience in compressed air and gas solutions, Atlas Copco says it is supporting the green hydrogen sector with a range of advanced systems for hydrogen production, transportation, and industrial usage.
Codelen modernises compressed air system
Codelen, a Spanish manufacturer of cardboard and microflute packaging, chose the EG Series EG37V from ELGi Compressors Europe to modernise the compressed air system at its plant in Elche, Spain.
New DX series from CompAir
CompAir has launched the DX series range of oil-free screw compressors, offering what the company claims to be the lowest total cost of ownership on the market, with up to 8% higher flow rates, up to 7% energy reduction and guaranteed air purity.
On-site nitrogen generator system
To meet growing demand from vehicle builders for its specialised self-piercing rivets and tools - and to ensure 24/7 continuity of output from its Deeside production plant - Atlas Copco Industrial Assembly Solutions has announced it has installed an on-site nitrogen generation system that feeds its heat treatment hardening process operation and overcomes dependence on vendor-delivered supply of the gas.
Dedicated Electronic Automation Team
Compressed air and fluid power specialist Thorite launched its new dedicated Electronic Automation (EA) Team at the Southern Manufacturing & Electronics show.
Next-generation GA and GA+ fixed-speed smart industrial air compressors
As manufacturing makes the transition to smart factories, Atlas Copco says it is leading the industry in smart compressors.
