Print and encode the first RFID label right, with 0 label waste. Brady Corporation’s new i7500 RFID label printer does not waste a single label in calibration. The printer uniquely recognises RFID labels and auto-selects the optimal RFID encoding option to achieve outstanding print and encode reliability.

Unique technology The new BradyPrinter i7500
Industrial RFID Label Printer prints and encodes the first RFID label right. Tested competitive models waste 10 to 30 labels after each consumable change. The printer also automatically locates label RFID chips to select the right internal antenna and power level that optimally encode UHF RFID labels currently loaded in the printer. In most RFID printers this input needs to be provided manually. The Brady printer’s unique technology reduces label waste even further, limits void labels, avoids time loss in production environments and adds great practicality for non-expert RFID printer users. Brady claims the technology accurately recognises RFID chips, even on labels as small as 15 mm width.

The patent-pending print and encoding technologies included in Brady’s new i7500 RFID make the printer extremely easy to use in a wide range of industrial contexts. They enable industries to easily switch UHF RFID label types on a single printer, without suffering label waste with each consumable change.

Fast, automated setup
With setup time for large, small, on-metal (up to 2mm thick) and off-metal UHF RFID labels under 3 minutes, the i7500 RFID is 25 to 2 times faster than most competitive models. The printer’s exceptional material setup and calibration speed strengthens its ability to protect industrial operational throughput. Designed to keep the line moving, Brady’s new RFID printer reduces support interventions, UHF RFID tag scrap, component scrap, unplanned downtime and production bottlenecks, all at a print & encode speed of 3 seconds per label.

High accuracy data
From large pallet labels to small component tags, the i7500 RFID printer includes automated UHF RFID label encoding verification. At the same time it can add human legibles and tiny machine-readable QR-codes and barcodes for legacy applications, in both 300 and 600 dpi.

Data can be sourced from company systems and sent to the printer via Ethernet, USB, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth. Common data standards can all be printed and encoded, including GS1 for worldwide unique RFID EPC codes and barcodes on item-level.

Offshore projects call for different approaches depending on whether an existing unit needs maintenance, repairs or structural modifications. Cartubi works across these different scenarios, applying its steelwork expertise to the specific requirements of each intervention.

In the offshore sector, steelwork is a broad term encompassing activities that can address very different needs. Hull repairs, steelwork carried out as part of a maintenance programme, and the construction of a new structure designed to accommodate equipment all rely on the same core expertise, but apply it to different technical and execution challenges. The ability to adapt steelwork expertise to the function required by the asset turns a specialist activity into an industrial capability. On large offshore units, hulls, decks and structural elements are part of complex systems in which plants, equipment and activities from different disciplines coexist.

Maintenance and repair: two distinct functions
Steelwork can form part of maintenance programmes aimed at preserving the condition and functionality of a unit over time. This was the case on Scarabeo 9, a Saipem drilling unit, where Cartubi carried out steelwork as part of a broader scope that also included mechanical and piping works, testing and underwater activities. Repair work serves a different purpose. In this case, steelwork is performed on existing elements affected, for example, by wear, deterioration or damage, with the aim of restoring the conditions required for operation.

One example is the five-year Special Survey of Saipem 10000, a deepwater drillship. During its dry-docking in Palermo, Cartubi carried out hull steel repairs, while other teams were engaged in hull washing, surface preparation and painting, as well as maintenance of the sea valves and the six steering columns of the thrusters. These two contexts highlight the multidisciplinary nature of such projects: steelwork must be integrated into a programme in which different activities are carried out simultaneously on the same unit. When steelwork transforms the asset In upgrade projects, the purpose of the work changes. Steelwork no longer contributes to maintaining or restoring the existing configuration but becomes one of the means through which that configuration is modified to meet new operational requirements.

On the Deep Value Driller drillship, Cartubi carried out a structural and plant upgrade that included heavy steelwork for the construction of an additional deck designed to accommodate new machinery. In this context, steelwork becomes part of the engineering solution itself: it does not simply produce new structural elements, but enables the asset to accommodate new equipment and functions. This represents a change not only in scale, but above all in function. Building a new structure on an existing unit means working within the constraints of available geometries and spaces, existing structures and systems, accessibility, tolerances, work sequences and potential interferences. Steelwork must translate the planned modification into a solution that can be effectively integrated into the asset.

From specialist work to industrial capability Maintenance, repair and upgrade therefore require different contributions from steelwork: integration within multidisciplinary projects, intervention on existing structures, or support for their transformation and the integration of new elements. The experience gained by Cartubi across different offshore units enables the company to apply this expertise to requirements that vary in purpose, scope and complexity. Working with steel thus takes on a broader meaning: not an end in itself, but a capability applied according to the specific intervention and the asset involved.

In cold rolling, the performance of the equipment is closely linked to the precision and condition of its most critical components. This is particularly true in demanding Sendzimir mill applications, where consistency over time is essential to maintaining the required quality standards. Faro Bearings combines specialised manufacturing expertise with dedicated reconditioning services to support the performance and service life of backup bearings in steel production.

Backup Bearings for Sendzimir-Type Cold Rolling Mills
Sendzimir cold rolling mills, thanks to their compact and robust structure, are capable of producing significant reductions in strip section at high speeds and under high pressures. The processed product must comply with very tight tolerances on thickness, flatness and surface finish. These requirements can only be met if the backup bearings rotate with an extremely high degree of precision. set of bearings, restoring the geometric parameters of the original backup roll.

The quality of Faro Bearings backup rolls is guaranteed above all by the use of high-purity steels, subsequently hardened following a new procedure that makes it possible to obtain optimal mechanical characteristics, as well as by high precision machining and sophisticated measurement methods. They are manufactured with tight tolerances and have a rotation accuracy better than P4. These characteristics ensure the highest quality of the rolled product in terms of surface finish and flatness.

Reconditioning of Backup Bearings
Faro Bearings’ decades-long experience, gained through collaboration with numerous customers, has made itpossible to establish proven processes for restoring backup bearings. In this way, it is possible to significantly extend the life of each bearing, resulting in economic savings. Reconditioning makes it possible to restore a bearing to an “as-new” condition, allowing substantial savings and contributing to maintaining production at consistent levels of profitability. It should also be emphasized that the time required for repair is significantly shorter than that required to manufacture new products.

This reconditioning process also contributes to environmental sustainability, limiting the need to produce new components and, consequently, reducing the ecological footprint associated with the manufacture and disposal of bearings. Bearing reconditioning is therefore an important service for the steel industry, as it not only allows cost savings and improves parts availability, but also reduces the risk of failures and the resulting downtime.

Meeting the demands of modern Oil & Gas manufacturing requires more than machining capacity alone. It calls for technologies capable of combining precision, flexibility and consistent performance across very different types of components. Gruppo Parpas addresses these requirements with a range of machining solutions developed for demanding applications, from large and heavy parts to highly complex turbomachinery components.

The Oil & Gas industry operates in one of the most complex and demanding industrial environments in the world. Turbines, compressors, valves, pumps and structural components must ensure absolute reliability even under extreme operating conditions, often characterized by high pressures, critical temperatures and continuous operating cycles. For manufacturers and suppliers across the value chain, the challenge is not only about the quality of the finished component, but also the ability to machine advanced materials, reduce production times and maintain high levels of accuracy on large-scale parts. In this context, the machine tool becomes a strategic asset for ensuring competitiveness and production continuity.

Heavy Duty Machining: Power and Accuracy Without Compromise
The production of valve bodies, energy plant components, welded structures and large castings requires machines capable of combining high structural rigidity, geometric accuracy and maximum operational flexibility. For these applications, the DINAMIKA range represents a particularly effective solution. Its moving column architecture integrates technologies developed to ensure high performance even during the most demanding machining operations.

The box-in-box configuration provides exceptional structural rigidity across all axes, while the automatic head changing system allows the machine to be quickly adapted to different machining processes. The wide range of available configurations also makes it possible to create multiple working areas, increasing both productivity and flexibility. When the objective is to maximize material removal rates, the THS series comes into play. Thanks to their T-structure design, these machining centres are able to handle particularly demanding operations while maintaining high levels of accuracy, even during intensive roughing processes. The outstanding structural rigidity and the ability to manage heavy workloads make THS an ideal solution for the production of components destined for Oil & Gas plants and the most demanding energy applications.

Turbomachinery: Accuracy for High- Performance Components
Alongside heavy-duty machining, we have technologies specifically developed for the production of highly complex components used in turbines, compressors and power generation systems. The UNIKA range was developed to meet these requirements. Fully equipped with linear motors, it offers exceptional dynamics, accuracy and surface quality in the machining of blades and blisks. With travels up to 2,000 mm on the X-axis, the platform can cover a wide range of applications, allowing the production of different types of components for the turbomachinery sector.

For components such as turbine discs, the DIAMOND series represents one of the most advanced solutions available. The Gantry architecture, combined with linear motors and torque-driven rotary axes, ensures outstanding dynamic performance and consistent accuracy over time. It is a platform designed to meet the most demanding production requirements, where geometric accuracy, reliability and final component quality are essential.

Technology as a Competitive Advantage
In the Oil & Gas industry, every component contributes directly to the efficiency and reliability of the entire plant. For this reason, the choice of manufacturing technology cannot be left to chance. From heavy-duty machining to the production of turbomachinery components, the solutions developed by Gruppo Parpas are designed to tackle the most complex challenges of modern industry.

The evolution of manufacturing is opening new possibilities for how production environments can operate and respond. As technology becomes increasingly capable of
interpreting complex situations, the focus is shifting towards creating systems that can support more informed and timely responses on the shop floor.

Manufacturing has reached extraordinary levels of automation. Yet the next industrial transformation will not be defined simply by faster machines or more connected factories. The real step forward will come from systems capable of understanding what is happening, learning from data, supporting decisions and turning intelligence into action. IMA calls this evolution Cognitive Manufacturing: an AI-powered ecosystem that connects machines, operators and production data to transform manufacturing performance through smarter decisions, predictive intelligence and continuous optimisation.

At its core is a model of distributed intelligence. For manufacturing to become truly cognitive, intelligence cannot reside in one place. It needs to operate across different layers of the production ecosystem, from the cloud to the edge and into robotics. In the cloud, IMA INTELLECTATM, IMA’s proprietary AI solution, brings together data and knowledge across machines, lines and plants, creating a scalable intelligence layer that can support multiple sites and applications.

On the shop floor, on-machine AI brings intelligence directly to where production happens, enabling real-time operator support, diagnostics and guided troubleshooting while helping ensure operational continuity. Robotics adds the ability to transform decisions into physical actions. In IMA’s vision, robots are not isolated elements of automation but an integral part of the cognitive system, designed to support operators, improve efficiency and safety, and ensure greater process consistency.

This becomes even more powerful when combined with advanced vision systems. Vision captures and interprets what is happening on the shop floor; AI transforms this information into actionable intelligence; robotics executes the optimised action. The resulting operational data can then flow back into the AI models, creating a closed-loop system that can progressively become more efficient, adaptive and autonomous, while remaining under human oversight. This continuous flow is central to IMA’s approach. Industrial production already generates vast amounts of information. The challenge today is no longer simply collecting more data, but turning it into value.
Cognitive Manufacturing creates a path from data to insight, from insight to decision, and from decision to action.

From predictive insights to smarter decisions and stronger human capabilities
The impact is tangible. Predictive intelligence can help identify anomalies before failures occur, reducing downtime and maintenance costs. Real-time insights can improve productivity and equipment utilisation. Earlier detection of process deviations can support quality and reduce waste. AI-assisted analysis can accelerate decision-making, while continuous monitoring can contribute to more efficient use of energy and resources.

The goal is not to remove people from manufacturing, but to amplify their capabilities. Operators, maintenance teams, production managers and business leaders remain central to the system, supported by technologies that make complex information easier to understand and decisions faster and more informed. For IMA, Cognitive Manufacturing represents the transition from connected automation to an industrial ecosystem capable of perceiving, understanding, deciding and acting.

Where data becomes intelligence. And intelligence becomes action.

When it comes to high-pressure pumps and gas boosters, maximum pressure is often the first specification people look at. But anyone who works with this equipment every day knows that there is much more to consider. Reliability, maintenance time, spare parts costs and the ability to adapt a product to a specific application can make a significant difference over the lifetime of a system. This is the approach behind MPS, a brand of Lavorazioni Tecnologiche Srl, an Italian manufacturer of air-driven high-pressure pumps and gas boosters. MPS designs and manufactures air- driven liquid pumps up to 4,000 bar and gas boosters up to 2,000 bar, for applications including Oil & Gas, pressure testing, hydrotesting, valve and component testing, gas compression and gas transfer.

When a standard product is not enough
Not every application can be solved by selecting a product from a catalogue. Sometimes there is limited space. Sometimes operating conditions, materials, pressure ratios or system interfaces require something different. And sometimes the customer simply has a problem that a standard solution does not solve efficiently.
This is where MPS takes a different approach. Rather than asking customers to adapt their systems around an existing pump, MPS can adapt or develop the pump around the customer’s application.

Over the years, this approach has led the company to develop customised solutions in close cooperation with major industrial companies. MPS also has extensive experience in OEM and private-label manufacturing, developing products that can be integrated directly into a customer’s equipment and, when required, supplied under the customer’s own brand. The objective is not simply to supply a component, but to become a reliable partner in solving a specific engineering problem.

Designed with maintenance in mind
The real cost of a high-pressure pump does not end with its purchase price. During its operating life, maintenance, spare parts, technician time and equipment downtime all contribute to the Total Cost of Ownership. For this reason, maintainability is considered from the early stages of MPS product development. MPS pumps are designed with the objective of making routine servicing simple and fast, reducing unnecessary complexity and helping technicians return the equipment to operation as quickly as possible. The same philosophy applies to spare parts and maintenance kits, which are offered at competitive costs to help customers control maintenance expenditure throughout the life of the equipment.  The result is a simple idea: a competitive product should not only be competitive when it is purchased. It should remain competitive every time it needs to be serviced.

From supplier to engineering partner
For manufacturers of pressure-testing equipment, test benches, Oil & Gas equipment, gas systems and special machinery, a high-pressure pump is often one critical component within a much larger system. In these applications, flexibility can be as important as performance.

MPS can work directly with OEMs and system manufacturers to modify existing configurations or develop dedicated solutions according to specific technical requirements. This ability to combine manufacturing with application-specific development allows MPS to approach the customer relationship differently. The starting point is not simply: “Which pump do you need?” It is: “What are you trying to achieve?” Understanding the application first often leads to a better solution.

Made in Italy, built for international industry MPS products are designed and manufactured in Italy by Lavorazioni Tecnologiche Srl, combining in- house manufacturing experience with the flexibility required to develop customised solutions. EN 10204 3.1 material certificates are available where applicable, while Lavorazioni Tecnologiche Srl is currently completing its ISO 9001 quality management system certification.

As MPS expands its presence in the international Oil & Gas and industrial markets, its philosophy remains straightforward: reliable performance, practical maintenance and the flexibility to develop the right product around the customer’s requirements. Because in demanding high-pressure applications,  the best solution is not always the one already available in a catalogue. Sometimes, the pump should adapt to the application — not the other way around. MPS – a brand of Lavorazioni Tecnologiche Srl

Industrial process heating is rarely a matter of simply reaching a target temperature. The operating conditions, plant configuration and specific requirements of each application can all influence how a heating system needs to be designed. Masterwatt approaches this complexity by looking beyond the individual component and considering the wider process in which it will operate, from the initial engineering phase through to the final solution.

Beyond the specification
Masterwatt designs and manufactures engineered electric process heating systems for industrial and oil & gas applications. Every project starts with a specification: a target temperature, required power, dimensional constraints, operating conditions and certification requirements. These parameters are essential, but they do not always tell the whole story.

Understanding the process
Behind every datasheet lies an industrial process, with its own operating conditions, constraints and performance objectives. A specification defines what the equipment is expected to do. Good engineering also asks why those requirements exist and which design choices will matter most. This is the principle behind Masterwatt’s engineering approach: understanding the application before defining the technical solution. Working alongside OEMs, EPC contractors and end users, Masterwatt aims to contribute while the solution is still taking shape, when technical choices can have the greatest influence on the project.

“Every project starts with a technical requirement, but successful engineering comes from understanding the process behind it. That is where the real value is created.” F. Ravazzolo, Managing Director

Translating requirements into engineering choices
Understanding an application often starts with simple questions. What is the exact process composition? Are there different operating cases in terms of pressure, temperature or flow rate? How and where will the heater be installed? The analysis then goes further. What temperature distribution is required within the fluid? What is the maximum acceptable pressure drop? How long is the downstream piping, and what temperature losses have been considered in the process design?

The answers can directly influence heater geometry, material selection, sizing, heat flux and control requirements. They can also reveal constraints, risks and optimization opportunities that may not be immediately visible in a datasheet. The way the heater will be controlled and integrated into the plant is also part of this analysis. Power regulation, instrumentation, electrical infrastructure and interface requirements can influence the final design, whether or not the associated control equipment is within Masterwatt’s scope of supply.

Standards and certification requirements must also be considered from the beginning. Masterwatt translates this understanding into engineered process heating solutions developed around the specific requirements of each application, combining engineering expertise, vertically integrated manufacturing and compliance with international standards.

Engineering the final solution
Energy projects demand efficiency, reliability, operational continuity and lower environmental impact, often within increasingly complex systems. Early technical collaboration between equipment manufacturers, EPC contractors and end users can help identify potential issues and evaluate alternatives before key design choices are fixed. ADIPEC is an opportunity for Masterwatt to continue this technical dialogue with operators, EPC contractors and technology partners, understand evolving project requirements and discuss the role of electric process heating in demanding industrial applications For Masterwatt, great engineering does not start with the answer. It starts with the right questions.
