Greater Security in the Investment Decision

Technology center for process engineering

From initial laboratory tests through pilot phases to the large-scale industrial plant, we develop optimally designed process integration in co-operation with our customers. This is based on our broad portfolio of separation technology systems and decades of experience in analysis, advising and construction. From this, our customers gain sound decision-making support and security in investment and production planning.

 

When selecting the right separation technology solution, not only are customers advised well by our process engineering centre, they also receive active support. This is based on investigations of the original / sample to be produced or processed in large-scale series and on customer specifications with respect to working temperature, flow capacity, degree of clarification or separation etc. After thorough analysis of all the data, the team from the application-specific laboratory recommends which machine type and which model will be best suited to the task. The result report and the documentation provide the greatest possible security for the investment decision.

Sound support for new development and scale-up

We provide intensive support right from the start for companies entering into new territory by planning the development of new types of products of production processes. Even for small volume units, we are able to design our separation technology systems exactly and to integrate them easily into the research work and product development of the customer.

 

Thus, in co-operation with the engineers from the respective business line, it is possible to clarify even before product development whether the planned quality parameters for new formulations are also achievable in the industrial application – and at which performance dimensions our separation technology solutions meet the set requirements 1:1. From this, our customers know the size to expect the investment to come to, even at the initial stage. 

One-off training field for performance tests

Other indications can be gained from test trials on original products at 20 to 2000 litres. The central process engineering test bay keeps numerous machines and systems for various performance tests under conditions that closely resemble practical application. 

Basic scientific research

In co-operation with various colleges, we acquire the basic scientific knowledge to enable us to integrate new technical processing solutions into the production processes of our customers.

 

Which way is right depends on the task. The objective is always to support customers in the selection of their centrifuges and to place their investment decisions on a secure footing.
