Hemmink - This is critical to the quality of an EMC gland from Pflitsch
Unexplained failure of functions in your machine? Counters that indicate incorrect readings in control devices? Control components that repeatedly fail? These can all be the result of electromagnetic radiation. You naturally want your machine or installation to be EMC-safe and not have to deal with unexplained failures, production interruptions or even downtime. So electromagnetic shielding is becoming increasingly important.
EMC cable glands: prevent failures and downtime
Cable glands play an important role in the EMC shielding of a device or installation. They prevent failures and interruptions in production. Because these consequences involve high costs, EMC cable glands are of crucial importance. In practice, standard cable glands are still often used that offer insufficient protection against electromagnetic radiation.
Damping values and current carrying capacity
EMC cable glands dissipate interference currents immediately before they enter the enclosure (external) and also within the enclosure (internal). Two factors play an important role in the quality and effectiveness of an EMC cable gland: damping values and current carrying capacity.
High attenuation values are essential to prevent interference signals that can interfere with sensitive data transmission, such as measurement results and data in radar engineering, drive and control technology and
telecommunications. For example, Pflitsch's blueglobe TRI EMC gland has exceptionally high attenuation values. This gland has a triangular spring that, thanks to a large contact surface and 360° enclosure, makes perfect contact with the screen.
High current carrying capacity is important when high levels of current flow through the cable's shield that must be reliably dissipated to the enclosure. Cable glands without sufficient current-carrying capacity can easily overheat and be damaged, which also prevents shielding. Especially in e-mobility, current carrying capacity is very important.

DigiFlow - Making Life Easier for CustomersRead moreTechnical services provider Breemes supplies customers with PLCs, drives and other materials. Customers like industrial automation company Digi-Flow. Turnover, both parties feel, is not the ultimate indicator of a good relationship. Coming up with solutions together and providing knowledge are equally important. Ultimately, Breemes has to make the customer’s life easier, Digi-Flow CEO Eric Decant believes. Antwerp-based Digi-Flow assists industrial companies in their transformation to smart industrial environments using industrial automation and digitalisation. The company is a spin-off from ESAS Automation in 2020. Solindus, now ESAS, had grown into a company with 2,000 employees after its founding in 2003 by Eric and Robert Decant. With Digi-Flow, they wanted to go back to small-scale entrepreneurship. Eric Decant is now the CEO of the company, which has 30-plus employees. ‘I’m still ambitious, but I don’t want to complete this kind of strenuous trajectory on such a large scale anymore.’ Meanwhile, he is grooming his son to take over the reins. This makes Digi-Flow a true family business, as reflected in its core values of co-creation, long-term vision, lifelong growth and personal.

ATR Engineering - Short delivery times for components and decisionsRead moreBeing able to shift gears quickly is crucial to the success of industrial automation projects. This refers not only to the delivery of components but also to decision-making. Short lines of communication are important here. That was the case in the project to control a washing line for plastic PET flakes, in which ATR Engineering and itsme teamed up closely. ‘The added value of our collaboration is being able to anticipate customer requests extremely quickly.’ Bringing ten years of experience in industrial automation to the table, Adrie van Triest started his own company in 2019. With a broad approach, ATR Engineering in Berkel-Enschot focuses on hardware and software engineering. ‘Our area of expertise is offering total solutions for industrial automation centred around the design of PLC controls. We will sit down with a customer to discuss pending automation issues and we will determine the needs and wishes for a project together in advance. We also offer flexible support for projects or commissioning.’ ATR Engineering is a small company currently employing four engineers from different disciplines. There is also a permanent ‘flexible shell’ of engineers and technicians available to help during peak periods.

Top Cold Control - Short lines for energy management and project collaborationRead moreSpecialist in industrial refrigeration Top Cold Control carries out complete projects, and energy management cannot be missing from that these days. This starts with a lot of measuring. For a cold store in Amsterdam, itsme, in consultation with Top Cold Control and the customer, designed a solution to integrate energy measurement in the control system. Top Cold Control from Nieuwkuijk, specialised in industrial refrigeration technology, realises large projects for customers in the Netherlands, Belgium, Germany and, through them, elsewhere in the world. These include refrigeration and freezer systems for slaughterhouses, processing companies, cold stores and transport companies. Top Cold Control can handle all common refrigerants, but specialises in the use of the natural refrigerants ammonia (NH3) and carbon dioxide (CO2). For fast freezing, Top Cold Control supplies advanced, energy-efficient freezing tunnels. "The company stands out for its short lines of communication," says operations manager Arjan Maas. "We are always accessible and customers immediately get the right person on the line with us."
