The Institut Cartogràfic i Geològic de Catalunya (ICGC) in Barcelona specialises in areas such as cartography, geology and geophysics. Its work generates more and more digital data, which is now hosted in a new data centre in the same building.
Innovation – The new RiLineX power platform
More power with a platform
Time and cost pressures are rising and there’s a skills shortage – the panel building and switchgear manufacturing sector continues to be under a lot of pressure. What’s needed are ways to speed things up in plant engineering – when it comes to power distribution technology, for instance. There’s now a solution – RiLineX, a new, open platform system for even more efficient planning and faster installation of 60 mm busbar systems. This boosts efficiency by up to 50 percent.
Innovation – Rittal Panel building and switchgear manufacturing
Start-up help for automation
No two panel building and switchgear manufacturing companies are the same, but they all have one thing in common – a huge and ever increasing need for automation. But how do you get started? What’s the first step? Which solution should you use first? We asked Jochen Trautmann, Managing Director of Rittal Automation Systems, what the individual steps might be.
Innovation – Eplan Cable proD
Perfection in machine cabling
Instead of working on the basis of whether something “looks right” and using complex prototypes, users of the new Eplan Cable proD software benefit from entirely virtual cable planning. As a result, the cabling of new machines works straight away, saving design engineers both time and money. Lukas Menzel, who is responsible for rapid design at Eplan, explains the many advantages.
