Sterling Systems & Controls, Inc. announces its new ability to test various powders and other bulk solid materials in its bulk solids test facility. With more than 18,000ft2 of facility available we use particle size reduction, feeding, dust collection and other process equipment to test bulk solids in static and pneumatic systems.

Testing bulk solid materials for density and flowability and other characteristics in bins and pneumatic systems is key to assisting Sterling Systems engineers in the effective custom engineering of weighing, batching, bulk bag handling and process control and automation systems for a wide variety of industries including feed mills, pet food manufacturing, food processing and production, rubber compounding and much more. This is what the bulk solids test facility is all about.

Sterling Systems & Controls has more than forty-five (45) years of experience providing efficient custom engineered and manufactured solutions for batching, micro, minor and bulk weighing, process and plant-wide control and automation, process equipment, bulk bag filling and unloading systems and bag dumping system. These custom designs utilize the latest technology to provide specialized data management, raw material management and production data tracking.

Siemens: Sinamics G220 Added to Xcelerator Portfolio

With Sinamics G220, Siemens is launching a new high-performance frequency converter to join the Sinamics family in the run-up to Hannover Messe 2023. The innovative frequency converters are equipped with so-called clean power technology. This reduces harmonics by up to 97 percent without the need for line harmonic chokes or DC link chokes. As a result, the Sinamics G220 frequency converters are significantly more efficient in terms of space utilization and operation and make engineering much easier. The new frequency converters are also the first Sinamics drives to be part of the Siemens Xcelerator portfolio, the Siemens-wide business platform for digital transformation.
