| On Demand Webinar | Practical Statistics & Checkweighing Does your job depend on finding new ways to save money? This webinar will demonstrate three new ways to save money with the checkweighers you already have in your facility. The presentation starts with a short overview of statistics fundamentals. The fundamentals are then applied to automatic weighing. The program concludes with three, non-traditional means to use weight data and statistics to reduce cost. The core content section of this thirty-minute webinar includes: * Terms used in the discussion * Process & Product Variation * Relating Weight Statistics to Your Production * False Accepts and False Rejects - What They Cost * Three Ways to Reduce Your Cost |
| On Demand Webinar | Understanding and Benefiting from the European Directive MID for Checkweighing The European Directive 2004/22/EG (MID = Measuring Instrument Directive) describes the approval procedure for a measuring instrument (which is in our case a checkweigher) through the production process up to the final conformity assessment. |
| On Demand Webinar | Safe Scale-up of Chemical Processes at Chilworth This presentation discusses how to ensure the safety of a process, when they should be performed, and how the outcomes of the tasks should be integrated to maximize the benefit. The safety of a process is not purely the domain of chemical engineers. Chemists dictate the intrinsic hazards of the process. |
| On Demand Webinar | Improving the Crystallization of Highly Energetic Materials with Inline Particle Measurement |
| On Demand Webinar | Improving the Understanding and Control of Polymer Synthesis This presentation discusses emerging polymer research and how the value of real-time in situ FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared) spectroscopy contributed to the understanding of the polymerizations. |

| On Demand Webinar | Optical in-line measurements in the brewing process Measuring systems based on optical technologies provide important information for process control and quality assurance purpose. Typical visual parameters are clarity, turbidity, and color of wort and beer. Recently dissolved oxygen (DO) measuring systems based on an optical principle have been made available to monitor the DO level in separation, blending and filling processes. Learn about measurement principles, applications and related benefits such as minimized operating costs and increased production uptime. |
| On Demand Webinar | Oxygen Gas-phase measurement – without a sampling system! Measuring systems based on amperometric technology particularly well suited for the measurement of gaseous oxygen in blanketing, inertization and off-gas monitoring applications. Because they are insensitive to moisture and dust, they do not require any gas sampling system and can be installed directly into the process gas stream, increasing the safety of the installation by measuring there, where it matters most. Not only are amperometric systems able to accurately track the oxygen level in the process, but they are also more convenient to maintain than other current measurement systems such as paramagnetic and Zirconium Dioxide ZrO2) systems. Instead of mandatory maintenance breaks of at least one day, amperometric systems can be safely extracted from a continuous process and maintenance can be performed in two minutes. |
| On Demand Webinar | Enhanced Development of Batch & Continuous Processes Using Real-Time In Situ FTIR Analytics as a Process Analytical Technology (PAT) Tool Real-time in situ FTIR analysis has become a standard tool in the chemical and pharmaceutical industries for providing information rich data that allows a more thorough understanding of reactions during the development and scale-up of chemical processes. |
