Every maintenance manager eventually faces the critical decision of whether to repair an existing air compressor or to invest in a new unit. This choice impacts not only immediate operational capabilities but also long-term financial performance. Making the right decision requires careful analysis of multiple factors, from immediate costs to future operational needs. Author: Rodrigo Varela, Senior Director – Aftermarket, ElGi

Studying neutrinos is very difficult as they typically pass through most normal matter unimpeded and undetected. Specialist detectors have to be built to hunt for them. The latest one is called JUNO, located 750m below ground in Jiangmen, China. The project is made possible by 17 different countries with 730 scientists working in 74 Universities and national laboratories. To develop the core part of the detector, the liquid scintillator, ultrafast digitizer cards by Spectrum Instrumentation are used.
