Record-sized toothpaste production needs massive geared motors
EKATO, manufacturer of customized industrial agitators, has scaled up the largest model from its UNIMIX line to more than double the size, thereby implementing the largest discontinuous toothpaste production system in the world. Two mixers, each with 10,000 liters effective volume, produce 6,000 to 11,000 kg of toothpaste per hour, depending on the product concentration. Thus, the output has been more than tripled. The drive specialist NORD DRIVESYSTEMS supported the development of the new record-sized systems.

Temperature profiles of reflow processes – Datapaq at enova 2013
Cambridge, UK – Datapaq will be at the enova 2013 exhibition in Paris in hall 7.2, at stand G43. The manufacturer of temperature measurement and analysis systems for almost any industrial heat treatment process presents a dedicated portfolio for the electronics industry. Reflow Trackers pass through SMT processes along with the printed circuit boards, compiling detailed temperature profiles and, if required, providing data for real-time monitoring via radio. Suitable for reflow soldering processes, wave, vapor phase, and selective soldering, as well as rework stations, the systems help reduce reject rates and increase yield. The accompanying Easy Oven Setup (EOS) software can automatically determine the optimal oven recipe for specific products as well as facilities, rendering consecutive test runs unnecessary and thereby saving much time and effort. Moreover, a variety of data loggers and thermal barriers enables the manufacturer to configure suitable systems for any process irrespective of space constraints, process duration, or maximum temperatures. Datapaq also supplies alternatives to test circuit boards: a sensor fixture and a wave solder pallet. Both support high repeatability, allowing users to fulfill the documentation requirements of the automotive industry, for instance.
