🔍 Focus on our recent robotic equipment inspection activities with associated repairs 🦺 The start of the summer school year was rich in the field for our various teams monopolized on many equipment inspection sites (Drying Towers, Cyclones, Bag Filters, Fluidized Beds, Crystallizers, Tanks...) with in most cases the associated repairs directly after the inspections carried out. We thank our loyal customers for their renewed trust but also our new partners for whom it was a 1st common experience. The short intervention times set during the technical shutdowns 👌 were respected 💡In addition to the regular inspections/repairs carried out in the Drying Towers (generally following a preventive schedule defined due to their sensitivities), and as demonstrated by our recent projects, we are also able to carry out these same services on the equipment associated with the Towers such as Bag Filters, Cyclones, Crystallizers or Fluidized Beds. Indeed, over time, this equipment may have cracks or other defects that need to be taken care of. Regular preventive checks are therefore also recommended in these facilities. Even in the case of a diameter too small to fit the robot (e.g. in some cyclones depending on their configurations), it is possible for us to use our RCS (Remote Camera System) system simply using the robot's camera fixed on a 360° rotating shaft. The image quality and inspection rendering will be the same as with the use of the robot. 🛠️ As with robotic inspections, which make it possible not to use scaffolding (or other heavy and bulky equipment), this is also the case for our associated repair services. These are indeed carried out by teams of Rope Row Welders using light and space-saving equipment. Combined with our rapid robotic inspections, the associated repairs we offer to our customers ensure that the equipment is quickly put back into production by limiting the downtime required for our services. ❓If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Mathieu LE COQ and/or visit our website 🛜 https://lnkd.in/eD3xXDDV

🔍 Zoom sur nos activités récentes d'inspections robotisées d'équipements avec réparations associées 🦺 La rentrée d'été fut riche sur le terrain pour nos différentes équipes monopolisées sur de nombreux chantiers d'inspections d'équipements (Tours de Séchage, Cyclones, Filtres à Manches, Lits Fluidisés, Cristallisoirs, Tanks…) avec dans la plupart des cas les réparations associées directement après les inspections réalisées. Nous remercions nos clients fidèles pour leur confiance à nouveau renouvelée mais également nos nouveaux partenaires pour qui ce fût une 1ère expérience commune. Les délais courts d'interventions fixés lors des arrêts techniques ont été respectés 👌 💡Outre les inspections / réparations régulières effectuées dans les Tours de Séchages (suivant généralement un planning préventif défini du fait de leurs sensibilités), et comme le démontrent nos chantiers récents, nous sommes aussi en mesures d'effectuer ces mêmes prestations sur les équipements associés aux Tours tels que les Filtres à Manches, les Cyclones, les Cristallisoirs ou les Lits Fluidisés. En effet, avec le temps, ces équipements peuvent présenter des fissures ou autres défauts à prendre en charge. Des contrôles préventifs réguliers sont donc aussi préconisés dans ces installations. Même dans le cas d'un diamètre trop petit pour faire rentrer le robot (ex : dans certains cyclones selon leurs configurations), il nous est possible d'utiliser notre système RCS (Remote Camera System) reprenant simplement la camera du robot fixée sur un arbre rotatif à 360°. La qualité d'image et le rendu de l'inspection sera le même qu'avec l'utilisation du robot. 🛠️ Comme lors des inspections robotisées qui permettent de ne pas utiliser d'échafaudages (ou autres matériels lourds et encombrants), c'est aussi le cas de nos prestations associées de réparations. Celles-ci sont en effet réalisées par des équipes de Soudeurs-Cordistes utilisant un matériel léger et peu encombrant. Combinées à nos inspections robotisées rapides, les réparations associées que nous proposons à nos clients assurent une remise en production rapide des équipements en limitant les temps d'arrêts nécessaires à nos prestations. ❓Pour toutes questions, n'hésitez pas à me contacter et /ou à visiter notre site web 🛜 https://lnkd.in/eD3xXDDV
Graeme King our electronics engineer has good taste in books!
My new favourite development book "Bare-Metal Embedded C Programming by Israel Gbati". When I began pushing my career towards R&D I asked a friend for his advice on bare-metal C programming, and he quickly referred me to Israel Gbati's array of courses on the subject. They became fundamental to my firmware development, along with being responsible for my love of ST microcontrollers. Of course, when I saw the instructor had also published a book this year, I immediately picked it up. This book is based on the stm32f4 family of microcontrollers and follows the same ideology of the Udemy courses, to stop you from copy pasting code and instead work alongside the datasheet to truly understand each line of code down to the register level. As a beginner you'll learn to develop your own drivers from scratch and debug with ease or for more advanced engineers, it's simply one of the best bare-metal references I've found for the price. I'd recommend the book as a hardcover reference to the bare-metal Udemy course of the same name but it's not mandatory. Always remember if a book gives you even one idea, then it was worth it!

Special thanks to our cooperative partner #DXCTechnology for the great teamwork. Let´s keep up the speed now!
Catch up with our CTO Timothy Black at STARTUP AUTOBAHN powered by Plug and Play EXPO2024!
🚀 Our blockbuster series is back! 🚀 This is the first episode of "Top Tech Startups & Entrepreneurs to Watch at EXPO2024". Over the next two months, we'll share stories of the masterminds behind the startups selected for STARTUP AUTOBAHN powered by Plug and Play EXPO2024. Discover the founders' & CxOs' inspirations and what they'll bring to Stuttgart on June 6! 👏 Meet our first guest: Timothy Black, CTO at Invert Robotics! "We build robots so that people don't have to enter dangerous, confined spaces," explains Timothy Black. "It's all about safe, accurate, and efficient industrial inspections. Our robots adhere to surfaces like aluminum, stainless steel, carbon fiber, and you use them to perform inspections as it keeps people safe from dangerous tasks." Use cases? Plenty! anything to do with inspection of assets; we are using them Food production, pharmaceuticals, oil and gas, energy, aerospace, and other “big pointy things that go up in the sky which we can’t talk about”. Born and raised in Australia 🇦🇺, now living in Ireland 🇮🇪, Timothy always had a passion for engineering. As a child, he enjoyed taking things apart and building with Lego. Eventually, he pursued his PhD in Robotics from Deakin University. Today, Timothy leads the R&D department at Invert Robotics, overseeing everything technical from prototyping to product. At Invert Robotics, they make their own products and technology. 🦾 Then, the companies inspection service team uses them in the field to perform inspections for their clients. Tim's team takes care of R&D, product development, manufacturing, maintenance, repairs, upgrades, and finally recycling of the technology. From "Cradle to Grave" he says. The idea for the robotic technology to "stick" to non-magnetic surfaces to inspect milk dryers started with their founder, James Robertson, and stems from his university final year project. Founded in 2011, Invert Robotics is now a team of some 40+ people, with the HQ / R&D office in Dublin and the manufacturing and service side in Eindhoven, the Netherlands 🇳🇱; plus sales offices in other countries. At the upcoming EXPO2024, Invert Robotics will showcase their project — an actual robot that people can drive — with DXC Technology. The company already uses it in production to improve automation and digital inspection quality. 👉 If you want to witness a real-life WALL-E 🤖, apply for your spot at EXPO2024 on June 6 here: https://lnkd.in/gu9W3-3F #startupautobahn #expo2024 #PNPTC #topstartup
