Impact Protection
Most products on the market work well as shock protectors but are hard to assemble. Axelent offers you a impact protection system that is super easy to install. Secondly, most of the existing products lack true flexibility, are hard to extend and not possible to build upon an existing system of protection. If you have a production or a warehouse that needs to expand, you would have to tear the current system down and start all over again. This is both timeconsuming and very expensive. This was before X-Protect! X-Protect is the only impact protection system that changes with your needs. Its uniquely modular design allows you alter existing configurations. With X-Protect you can add protection where and when you need it, and even integrate with our X-Guard machine guarding system. That is unique on the market. Axelent's wide range of impact protection includes impact barriers, pedestrian barriers, bollards and column guards.

Improve automation acceptance by conveying bulk solids with Piab´s new product series
The automation level in the food, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals markets is developing rapidly due to the adaptation of new solutions globally. The acceptance is increasing thanks to the obvious benefits of automation, such as improved product hygiene and employee safety. Heightened consumers' expectations and legislative agency regulations also force manufacturers to re-evaluate their processes, but there are still some reasons why they choose not to invest. Currently, manufacturing plants often consist of separate silos of automation where process steps are not entirely connected. One of the main concerns against the adaptation is the organisation's lack of acceptance of new technologies. A high fluctuation rate and the scarcity of trained, competent operators or technicians makes it difficult to take the leap. Therefore, all new equipment introduced must be as user-friendly as possible in order to decrease employee onboarding time and to reduce the possibility of human error. Piab has taken all the above requirements into account when they developed their new product series, called the piFLOW® Batch Volume Optimisation, besides their standard piFLOW® vacuum conveyor range. The Batch Volume Optimisation functionality is easy to maintain, compliant with industry standards, and enhances productivity dramatically. The vacuum conveyor takes solids from a pickup point and releases them into a receiving vessel or a piece of equipment in batches. Batch Volume Optimisation features a level sensor. Once the conveyor is filled up by each cycle, the sensor automatically triggers the release process. This way, operators can set the conveyor up quickly, and the automatic level sensing adds an extra layer of safety, which protects the equipment from unplanned maintenance.

Impulse dosing valve
The patented dosing valve for industrial lubricants is the result of several years of experience in developing and producing components in the field of volumetric lubricant dosing. The impulse dosing valve is in its element wherever lubricant quantities have to be dosed with positional accuracy and in a precise volume. It is controlled by a monostable, quick-acting pneumatic valve and achieves up to 20 dot-shaped doses per second. Different dosing volumes are therefore possible with a corresponding number of controls with only one IDV without significant loss of time.
