Identify Direct, trading as Machine Vision Technology, has developed a label-checking system for a major food canning company, which operates 26 production lines over two sites, and used to be particularly susceptible to mis-labelling due the a very large range of products for several major supermarkets.

Mitsubishi Electric has helped to deliver a step-change in productivity, uptime and hygiene for a leading manufacturer of vibratory conveyors to the food industry.

When a new thermal imaging telescope is sent into orbit at the end of 2026, it will open new possibilities to combat global warming and increase heat efficiency for urban planners. The telescope’s unique unfolding design, driven by maxon motors, achieves a compact footprint for rocket launch that is set to increase commercial viability across a broad range of applications.

To increase the capacity of a packaging line for individually packaged cheese portions, a manufacturer required a robust, reliable solution to detect the presence of each cheese portion to control the speed of in-line buffering units. These feed a packaging machine, in a high-volume, hygienic production facility. The company turned to Contrinex for a solution.

Petitpierre, the Swiss specialist for high-precision technology, has developed sophisticated applications with which micromechanical components can be cleaned and measured precisely during the production process. MVTec HALCON supplies the appropriate machine vision algorithms for this.

A food packaging machinery manufacturer trusts ReeR Safety to meet the demanding reliability and performance requirements of machines which perform high-speed processing tasks between a slicer and a thermoforming machine.

When a leading UK aerospace company commissioned Astech Projects to build a bespoke Automated Masking System to mask complex areas of aircraft components to avoid precious metal coverage during the manufacturing process, it turned to Intertronics.

Paragon Rapid Technologies manufactures a wide variety of precision-engineered parts using a variety of CNC and 3D printing techniques. When the company needed to replace its ageing on-site nitrogen generator with a new model that would be more efficient and achieve the high purity required in its selective laser sintering process, it turned to Atlas Copco.

To speed up an end-of-line packaging station, a manufacturer wanted a simple and affordable measurement system to establish the height of incoming boxes. It turned to Contrinex.

With an output of up to 45,000 rolls per hour, the KGV-H industrial bread roll line from the Austrian manufacturer Koenig sets new performance standards - including a 50 per cent higher throughput than the usual commercial bread roll lines. Koenig chose low-voltage motors from WEG and geared motors from WEG's subsidiary, WEG Gear Systems, to keep the dough moving.
