In the market for freeze drying machines for the pharmaceutical industry, the demand for automatic loading and unloading systems is increasing. This kind of machine strictly requires clean and aseptic conditions to avoid adverse health effects and cross-contamination. Azbil Telstar has developed a new automatic system that uses a non-contact magnetically driven mechanism called a magnetic lead screw. Improvements achieved by this system include high cleanability by eliminating the bellows, sterilization of all parts going inside the freeze drying chamber, a compact layout by reducing the length of the front pusher and eliminating the rear pusher.
2. A New Engineering Tool that Contributes to the Operational Efficiency of a Building Automation System
The PC Engineering Tool is designed for quick configuration of the newly developed savic-net™G5 building automation system and for more efficient adjustment. To improve the existing level of usability and development efficiency, we defined the basic user interface (UI) and commonly used function as a platform and implemented various engineering functions as applications of this tool.
3. A Compact Mass Flow Controller with Improved Noise Resistance, Designed for Mounting on Manufacturing Equipment
Tetusya Tateyama
In the factory automation (FA) market, cost and size are often more important than performance and functions for mass flow controllers that are mounted on manufacturing equipment. To meet this market demand, we have developed a low-cost, compact, and easy-to-use mass flow controller that provides performance and functions suitable for mounting on equipment. In noise resistance is substantially better than that of existing product lines, and it is not affected by noise even if the source is nearby.
