Exceptional diaphragm pump lifetime is no coincidence, it is engineered. When a pump runs for more than 11 years under defined test conditions, OEMs benefit from fewer failures, lower costs, and greater confidence in critical applications.
Faster deployment, improved throughput and new levels of collaboration have been reported by customers
Many vacuum systems still rely on analog gauges because they are simple and reliable. But digital gauges offer advantages in communication, diagnostics, and system integration. Find out when switching to digital vacuum measurement makes sense.
The Oil & Gas Automation and Digitalisation Congress (AUTOMA) will take place on 5-6 October 2026 to bring together executives and technical leaders of the industry
The new office, which will offer direct support for the Asia-Pacific region, is led by Neil Chen, who has been appointed as the managing director of Critical Manufacturing in Taiwan.
Conventional condition-monitoring systems detect bearing damage only after wear such as pitting or material loss has already occurred. HCP Sense takes a decisive step further: instead of monitoring the consequences of damage, the technology identifies its root causes at a very early stage. By directly detecting critical lubrication conditions before physical damage occurs, premature bearing failures can be actively prevented.
Energy efficiency is not a new trend in the electronics industry. However, demands are growing, driven by rising electricity prices, regulatory pressure as well as the increasing need for energy-efficient components for systems, power electronics, and IoT devices. From November 10 to 13, 2026, the international electronics industry will gather at electronica to discuss the latest trends in energy efficiency.

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
3D printing in companies is booming. Design engineers are printing special components and wear-resistant parts themselves without further ado. However, the projects stand or fall on the quality of the printing material, warns Jonas Burk, Head of Additive Manufacturing at igus. The fact that 3D printing with high-performance polymers from igus is worthwhile is not only proven by the service life tests. Customers can also manufacture their products more economically and faster than injection moulding.
