chemicals for use in several market
verticals, including pharmaceuticals,
biologics, agrochemicals and biocatalysts.
After its debut in 2019, Interphex
will bring back the Innophex
space within its show floor. Innophex

Use these robots in processes
with stringent decontamination
The Stericlean range of fully encapsulated
robots (photo) are compatible
with decontamination processes
using vaporized and liquid hydrogen
peroxide, at concentrations up to
35% H2O2. Designed with cleanroom
operation in mind, the robots feature
special seals and surface treatments,
as well as a proprietary food-grade
lubrication oil to safely lubricate each
axis. Theses axes are put in motion
by this company's proprietary JCS
drive technology on all models, which
facilitates high-speed motion and
high repeatability for ultra-short cycle
times. The special seals and surface
treatment, combined with the ability
to pass all connections through the
base and inside the arm, enable for
shorter decontamination cycles in
controlled or aseptic environments,
as well as laboratory integration of
all four- and six-axis Stericlean models.

These sensors feature a
standardized adapter system
This company has recently launched
its line of VegaBar pressure sensors
and VegaPoint point-level switches.
The compact instrument series is tailored
for applications requiring high
levels of quality control and strict
hygiene. The standardized, hygienic
adapter system and process fittings
(photo) provide the flexibility needed
to keep installation efforts and parts
inventory to a minimum. Also, sensor
setup is simplified with secure Bluetooth
connectivity. All VegaBar and
VegaPoint sensors can be configured
using a smartphone or tablet. The new
sensors also feature universal communication.
Standard IO-Link protocol
offers intelligent data transfer and
simple integration into any system.

Advanced dry-granulation
system for reliable containment
The BRC Series of dry granulators
now includes the new BRC 100 Containment
model (photo). Along with
a standard mechanical drive, which
eliminates the need for hydraulics, this
new model is equipped with fast controls
that enable fully automated operation.
The unit includes a glovebox
with security prompts and dedicated
containment ports for sample collection,
as well as containment ports underneath
the sieve unit for the removal
of granules. An integrated insulator
unit features corresponding vacuum
monitoring, and also provides convenient
access, since there is no complete
insulator installed around the
entire compactor. Booth 2954 - L.B.

Hygienic dosing for
two-component systems
The new ViscoDUO-VM HD dosing
system (photo) is designed to process
two-component fluids and pastes in
hygienic processes. The new dosing
system offers continuous mixing and
dosing of two low- to high-viscosity
materials with the same or different
viscosities and guarantees precise,
