Ransom Naturals Ltd choose Axium Process


manufacturer of natural products and extracts to the Pharmaceutical, Healthcare, Cosmetic, Food and Drinks industries has been working closely with membrane filtration specialists, Axium Process, to develop a system that would process an aqueous or solvent based extraction process to reliably remove suspended solids and bioburden from raw plant extracts to meet product specifications. Following previous experience with extraction technology

involving membranes, Ransom Naturals Ltd commissioned Axium Process to design and build a mobile ATEX Zone One rated membrane filtration plant able to move to a number of positions in their factory. Membrane technology provides excellent results for the


removal of bacteria, yeasts and moulds from extracts and Ransom Naturals chose Axium Process as their preferred supplier due to their experience of natural extract separation from a wide range of products utilising membrane filtration technologies and its ability to design and build ATEX rated systems.

Advanced Valve Solutions (UK) Ltd announce HP and IP Workshop/Seminar


A


t their new training facility in Cheshire, AVS has provided Valve Workshops that concentrate on concerns within the power industry,


drawing on the expertise of their engineers as well attendees. The next ‘one- day’ workshop will be on the 8th November 2017. Advanced Valve Solutions (UK) Ltd has been instrumental in the provision


of reliable and robust valves into Power Stations across Europe. Their approach to business, they claim, is one of consultation and innovation. Solutions offered is a custom ‘fit for purpose’ one that ensured increased product/process life cycle and significant improvements in plant efficiency. In many cases the increased efficiency has saved many hundreds of thousands of pounds per year. Lunch and refreshments are free of charge.

Detecting residual oxygen within solder reflow


W


ith a world that has more gadgets than people, it is not surprising that electronics has progressively


become an essential everyday part of modern life. With such a high demand from both the consumer and industrial markets, the expectation is strong when it comes to reliability and quality. Inside many gadgets you will find a PCB (printed circuit


board.) PCB manufacturers worldwide strive continuously to improve quality control in order to minimise product failure. For many PCB manufacturers, the reflow soldering process is the most popular manufacturing method, as it allows mass production of PCB’s with intricate surface mount component soldering of the highest quality. The reflow soldering process uses a solder paste to


attach multiple electrical components temporarily to their contact on the circuit board; after assembly it is then subjected to controlled heat within the solder reflow oven, melting the solder and permanently connecting the joint between the component and the circuit board. Nitrogen is introduced into the solder reflow oven to


enhance the quality of the soldering, as it creates an inert atmosphere reducing the risk of oxidisation as well as improving the wetting angles of the soldered joints. The inert atmosphere within the oven is maintained using a gas analyser capable of measuring ppm (parts per million) of the oxygen content.
