Text-based robot programming for machine tending applications requires engineers to have a high level of robotics expertise. Alternative graphical-based programs require less skill but fall short in providing a clear graphical overview of the machine tending cell and robot movement logic. ABB is developing a solution to the problem with a fast and user-friendly graphical-based model for intuitive ...

As many municipalities strive to balance regula- tions set forth in the USEPA’s Safe Drinking Water Act, they are growing more concerned about how to reduce spending in their plant treatment processes. Today many drinking wa- ter plants, like the City of City of Englewood’s Allen Water Filter Plant Englewood in Colorado, are using total organic carbon (TOC) monitoring and process optimization to ...

Thermal fluids have proven exceptionally safe during many years of operation in a wide range of industries. However, there is no way to completely prevent fires in these systems because the major components required — fuel, air and an ignition source —
are always present by design.
The potential for a serious fire caused by the thermal fluid system can be minimized by observing sound design ...

If you cannot measure it, you cannot manage it. Overall Equipment Effectiveness, or “OEE,” is a well known concept in maintenance and is a way of measuring the effectiveness of a machine. It is the backbone of many techniques employed in asset management programs.
This white paper begins with an explanation of the difference between efficiency, effectiveness and productivity. OEE is also ...

Sample matrices are known to create analytical obstacles during routine Total Organic Carbon (TOC) analysis. Until now, interferences from sample matrices have caused calibration curve stability to be sacrificed. Some common aggressive matrices require frequent maintenance, and weekly, or even daily recalibration. By re-engineering the sample flow path and the oxidation technique, GE Analytical ...
