Flowmeters enable energy management
In today’s business climate, keeping energy costs in line has never been more important. Energy has become a hot topic for businesses, governments and consumers. For many, finding new and better ways to reduce energy usage and increase energy efficiency is a high priority. As a result, energy management is receiving a lot of emphasis. Measurement is fundamental to energy management because to control it, you first must measure it.
Wireless technology benefits for manufacturing
The next generation of industrial advancement, which is referred to as Industry 4.0, aims to inter-connect and computerize the traditional industries such as automation. The objective in Industry 4.0 is to make factories smart in terms of improved adaptability and resource efficiency, as well as the improved integration of supply and demand processes between the factories.
Digitalization crucial for food manufacturing processes
There can be no denying that the COVID-19 pandemic has laid bare the fragilities and inequities of food systems. Today food producers are facing increased pressure on their essential workforce as they try to meet fast-changing demands and there is a growing realization that there is a need for change, to ensure more agile and efficient processes to meet fast changing consumer demands.
Turbulence model developed to help aircraft capable of handling extreme scenarios
Mechanical engineering professor Carlo Scalo and his research team use supercomputers to develop models that efficiently simulate vortex flow phenomena.

Collaborative robot market predicted to surge Original
Interact Analysis projects there will be an annual growth rate of the order of 15 to 20% leading to 2028 in the collaborative robot market. Courtesy: Interact Analysis Interact Analysis’ report on the collaborative robot market indicates there is optimism with significant growth predicted over the next decade after a rough 2019 and 2020. As is the case with many industries, COVID-19 has severely affected the short– and medium-term outlook for the collaborative robot sector.
Designing customized robot brains for critical applications
MIT researchers have developed an automated way to design customized hardware, or “brains,” that speeds up a robot’s operation. Courtesy: Jose-Luis Olivares, MIT While robots are stronger and moving faster than ever before, they still struggle with complex situations and their movements grind to a halt. “The hang up is what’s going on in the robot’s head,” said Sabrina Neuman, a recent PhD graduate from the MIT Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory (CSAIL).
Vertical pump efficiency and reliability Original
The vertical suspended pump can be overlooked when it comes to routine maintenance. The reliability of their design means that they rarely suffer from situations that attract attention. However, over time there is an expected gradual decline in efficiency as various components wear, which can be exacerbated if proper maintenance is not carried out. Maintaining hydraulic alignment to the application is very important to the reliability and performance of the pump.
