Fire and explosion protection

Metav symposium showcases new safety solutions

German machine tools are considered to be among the safest in the world. Nevertheless, safety remains an ongoing issue, which the VDW and the German Employers' Liability Insurance Association for Wood and Metal have been addressing for many years. On February 20, the symposium "Fire and explosion protection in metal-cutting machine tools" will therefore take place as part of Metav 2018. Experts will present innovations relating to safe machine tools.

Extraction systems and filter systems

High growth at Kemper

While Kemper achieved solid growth of five percent on the German market last year, revenue rose by just under 14 percent overall.

Compressed air filter

Higher separation efficiency at lower differential pressure

According to the manufacturer, the Clearpoint 3eco filter from Beko achieves 10 times higher oil aerosol separation performance. This is a performance at a differential pressure reduced by up to 50 percent in a wet-saturated state.

Extraction and filter systems

Detection and filtering in hazardous areas

ULT has added a conductive version to its LAS 260 device series. This means that the system is now also suitable for extraction and filtering tasks when processing materials that are highly flammable or can form an explosive dust-air mixture.

New frequency inverter series

Higher protection, better performance

The Bonfiglioli S2U inverters are now also available in protection class IP66 and higher performance. The new series is particularly suitable for applications in harsh environments. The heat sink has been specially designed for extreme environmental conditions such as dust, moisture and cleaning chemicals.
