ADVERTORIALS Cyntech confirm Vitalconn Partnership
Cyntech are pleased to announce their new Part- nership with interface I/O manufacturer Vitalconn who are located in Dongguan and Foshan in China.
The Vitalconn range includes; • Modular Jack RJ11/45
Kardex Vertical Buffer Module a Mini-load alternative
Church Pharmacy one of the largest pharmacies in the UK were facing problems in keeping up with the number of orders they were able to process. With a manual pick- ing process, they required a lot of space, working areas were tight and staff spent time locating and identifying products. Management considered moving premises to secure more space, working with
UpSTEAM.uk and Kardex Remstar they were able modernise processes enabling them to stay in their current premises and manage continued growth and future-proof the busi- ness. Kardex Remstar’s Vertical Buffer Module (VBM) (ef- fectively a small Miniload in a box) combined accuracy, fast picking, and enhanced security. The VBM delivered the exact product to the picker for a good ergonomic experience. The VBM stores the bulk of their stock in a small footprint, which meant that Church Pharmacy were able to stay in their current premises enabling enough space for 5x more order volume growth.

C.K TOOLS LIGHTS THE WAY WITH NEW HEAD TORCH
C.K Tools, the trusted choice for trade professionals, has launched a brand-new Wide Field Head Light (T9630) to ensure greater visibility and safety when accessing wires or cables in dark and confined spaces.
The COB LED head light comes with an RRP of £39.00 and four modes of operation – spotlight, wide field, full beam, and dipped beam – providing the versatility needed to suit all manner of environments electricians find themselves in.
More importantly, the head light performs at a high CRI (Colour Rendering Index) rating of 80, which when optimised with a combination of 400 lumens of brightness (equivalent to a 40w LED bulb) and 5,700 kelvins of colour temperature (similar to natural light) means it can more closely project the true colour of the object it is shining on – critical when working with coloured electrical wires in dark spaces.
For extra portability, the head light is charged via USB, with six hours of runtime, three hours of charge time, and a charging indicator. To
withstand the variety of environments and spaces it will be used in, the head light also comes with an IK-07 impact rating and IP-54 ingress protection from limited dust and water spray, for extra durability.
Paul Pugh, Head of Marketing at C.K Tools, said: “Accessing wires in dark and confined spaces is a necessity for every electrical engineer, and it becomes that little bit harder in the winter months when brighter, natural light is less abundant.
“What many don’t consider is that the source of light is just as important as the tools being used on the wires – if not more so; it can make the difference in cutting or connecting the right wires. This is where electrical engineers should be looking beyond just practical elements, such as the portability and price, and placing more important on the CRI and Kelvin capabilities of their light choices.”

WHAT ARE THE OPPORTUNITIES FOR INDUSTRIAL
DECARBONISATION IN UK MANUFACTURING?
As the industry looks to decarbonise against a backdrop of uncertainty, what options are available to the off-grid manufacturing sector in the short and long term to help reduce carbon footprint? In this article, Stuart Viney, Calor’s National Accounts Manager for FLTs, discusses the difference sustainable fuels can make to FLTs, ware- houses and other industrial premises. From ‘here and now’ solutions such as Futuria LPG to future fuels that are currently being trialled for a full roll-out in the immediate future. Industrial decarbonisation encourages invest- ment and roll-out of low-carbon technologies and infra- structure that will contribute to clean growth within UK industry and support its overall journey to net zero. Key to this is reducing the carbon emissions from the most energy intensive industries, which includes the manu- facturing sector. The UK Government’s ten-point plan for a green industrial revolution1 set out an approach that would help accelerate our path to net zero, including investing in green technology and supporting green jobs. But how can those in the manufacturing industry contribute to a cleaner environment and reduced car- bon footprint?
