Simple solutions can work a treat

• Metal-working company's manual spillage problem 
• Floating valves in the tanks prevent overflow and save some 3 % on lubricant use a year 

The German company Metalltechnik Menges GmbH specialises in the area of chipless deformation, a technique for working different metals such as steel and copper. The company uses several machines filled with lubricants, which help to keep friction down during the metal-working processes. 

Out with the old ...

• Old and outdate transformers can themselves be a burden on budgets
• Replacing them with modern units can boost efficiency

Large factories and businesses running heavy machinery sometimes employ outdated, ad-hoc solutions which can be a drain on budgets. Companies specialising in metal production, for example, can need up to 400V three-phase alternating current, instead of the standard level of 230V, to meet the heavy demands of the industrial machinery involved.

Soldering made easy

Turning a need into a genuine opportunity
