Hydra-Cell Mono-Block Pumps Ease


Installation & Service


G03, G13 and P200 seal-less pump models. The new Mono-Block pump head combines the traditional valve plate and manifold into a single component, allowing easy access to the cartridge style valve assemblies. The valves are accessed easily without the need to disassemble the pump or disturb the system pipework.Routine maintenance, valve inspection and, if necessary, replacement, can be carried out quickly and efficiently and causes very little downtime while cutting service and maintenance costs. A further benefit of the Hydra-Cell with Mono-Block pump head is its ability to prime quickly at slow speeds. Mono-Block pump heads are available in brass or 3 16 stainless steel. Diaphragms are available in a range of materials from PTFE and Viton to Buna, Neoprene and EPDM, to suit the requirements of the liquid being pumped.

ESIPA®’s pneumatic hydraulic riveting tool, Taurus series, is well known to the industry due to its technical peculiarity. GESIPA®’s Taurus Tools can save up to 68% of the compressed air by its dual use. This is because, the compressed air required for setting of the blind rivet can be re-used a second time for ejection of the spent rivet mandrel thereby switching-off the air suction mechanism completely through an easy to activate slide switch. These Taurus


Tools were recently introduced by


GESIPA® with a process control mechanism. Contained within these special Taurus tools, is a sensing & processing capability that analyses each rivet set via a real time analysis of traction and stroke during the riveting operation. An immediate feedback is provided to the operator via Green and Red LED’s located on the tool to confirm good or bad rivet setting. Rivets that fail to set according to defined parameters are detected and reported.


Multiple job profiles stored in a computer can be quickly down-loaded into the tool’s memory,


programming it for varying applications. The tool’s internal memory stores data on up to 260,000 rivet sets. The output data can be transmitted in real-time to collection devices, audible/visual signal systems and electronic controllers or downloaded at intervals to provide analysis of the riveting process. The system also identifies failure patterns and memorizes those for failure analysis and troubleshooting. Considering all the work that is done by these special Taurus tools, it is notable that all the system components involved are part of the tool itself and each analysis takes less than a microsecond. Moreover, all measurement parameters and riveting sequences can be adjusted with special software. Detailed analysis of the measurement either for data storage or for error detection, as well as sensor re-calibration can be performed at user’s level.


Gesipa Blind Riveting Systems Ltd manufactures and delivers an extensive range of blind rivet, rivet


nuts, rivet nut studs, associated tooling and bespoke application based solutions. With ISO 9001 and ISO/TS 16949:2009 accreditations Gesipa offers a complete range of engineering solution for specific fastening requirements to the automotive, construction, railway, white goods, electronics and many other varied industries.

Kurtz-Ersa launches flow assembly line based on Strothmann RoundTracks


them to process the rising number of orders without having to extend the shop floor. The machines which weigh several tons are transported through the assembly stations by means of RoundTrack technology from STROTHMANN Machines & Handling. The hardened rails are embedded in aluminum holding profiles in the hall floor. They pose no barrier when walking or pushing a rolling shelf across. The round rails and the special wheel shape combine for minimal rolling resistance, enabling heavy loads to be transported with little energy and high positioning precision. Having transferred to flow production, Kurtz-Ersa has reduced the average period for completing a machine by half. As a further advantage, cyclical production organization with defined assembly steps enables them to exactly specify completion dates.

BM has developed a range of torque


transducers capable of providing highly accurate information to reduce maintenance and lengthen service life for the latest gearless systems in offshore wind power plants. Extremely high torques – often of the magnitude of several MN·m – occur throughout the drive train because the generator turns at a slower speed with the same power to convert wind energy into electrical energy. HBM’s range of torque products extends from series production products to customized transducers to meet the demands of a wide variety of applications including determining a generator’s efficiency according to IEC 60034.


HBM has presented the


technology at many important international wind energy events and will continue with its activities during the coming year. This includes attending the EWEA European


Wind Energy Conference &


Exhibition 2014 in Barcelona, Spain, as well as AWEA 2014 in the USA. Main topics include both solutions for generating wind power as well as component and structural testing. Wind energy plants are a key technology for renewable energy with leading German statistics company,


Statista, noting that


gross power generation from wind power has increased in the last 10 years by nearly 200%.
