October 2026, Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration, Comtest
Comtest, distributor of Fluke test and measurement equipment, explains how handheld infrared thermometers are transforming maintenance in electrical, industrial and HVAC environments, with three measurement strategies and a wide range of practical applications. |
Fast and accurate biogas and biomethane analysis in under a minute
October 2026, Analytical Instrumentation & Environmental Monitoring
The DynamiQ-X BG2300 analyser from Sensirion, built on Qmicro’s micro-GC chip technology, delivers complete biogas and biomethane composition in 45 seconds, with reliable hydrogen sulphide measurement from around 1% in biogas down to 1 ppm in biomethane. |
Making high-quality industrial enclosures more accessible
October 2026, Enclosures, Cabling & Connectors
Rittal has reduced the list price of its AX, KX and stainless-steel compact enclosure ranges, making these IP66-rated solutions with tool-free installation and 30% more cable space more accessible to South African manufacturers and engineering businesses. |
Microdieseling – the explosions you never hear
October 2026, Maintenance, Test & Measurement, Calibration, Wearcheck
Microdieseling is a pressure-induced thermal degradation mechanism in which entrained air bubbles are compressed so rapidly that the surrounding oil ignites, producing soot, varnish and sludge. WearCheck explains how it happens, why the damage varies, and how oil analysis detects it. |
AI-based quality inspection scales across P&G operations
October 2026, IT in Manufacturing, Siemens South Africa
Siemens and Procter & Gamble are expanding an AI-based visual inspection system across P&G’s manufacturing operations worldwide, inspecting products in real time at full line speed, and reducing scrap rates by 10 to 20% depending on the product. |
Designing the modern AI cooling stack
October 2026, Industrial Computer Hardware, Schneider Electric South Africa
As average rack densities in data centres climb from 16 to 27 kW in a single year, Schneider Electric’s Canninah Dladla outlines the six liquid cooling architectures available to operators, seven design factors, and three operational practices that determine energy and water efficiency. |
