FOCUS-ON VoF

Check out this fantastic video from our colleagues in Norway, showcasing a plug and seat change on a FOCUS-1 device for one of their customers! The video provides a clear, step-by-step demonstration of how to perform a CV update, making it both informative and easy to follow. Great work, team! Enjoy watching! Matek Samson Regulering AS

"Last week, we got a behind-the-scenes look at Synres B.V.…" Together with my colleague Rick Julicher, we visited Synres for the commissioning of 2x new FOCUS-1 🎥 Synres chose FOCUS-1 for a critical task: precise flow control of chemicals into their mixers (Batching). With the integration of FOCUS-1, Synres chooses to go forward in proces automation and adapt to new technolgies that simplify the way control loops are build. What really brought a smile on our face... The speed at which the Synres team adapted to using FOCUS-1. Thanks to the intuitive dashboard, they got comfortable with the system, that is where we work for! (See picture) Thanks to Jim Stigter, we where allowed to captured this on video! We’ll be sharing the cricital use of FOCUS-1 in this system with you soon, so you can see firsthand how FOCUS-1 is making a difference. Curious to see the footage? Stay tuned!

There is a event upcoming in our home country, The Netherlands! The event is called: Smarter Production with Innovative Technologies It is the theme of the KROHNE Academy 2024. We warmly invite you to the seminars on November 12 in Ridderkerk and November 14 in Assen. Curious about how innovative technologies can make the production process smarter and more sustainable? During the seminar, we will focus on the impact of digitalization and AI in the process industry, with a strong emphasis on sustainable production. Measurement and control technology, Artificial Intelligence, Data Analysis, Asset Performance Management, Machine Learning, Open Automation, APL, and Energy Efficiency are just some of the topics that KROHNE Academy, together with PHOENIX CONTACT, SAMSON REGELTECHNIEK, FOCUS-ON, and SCHNEIDER ELECTRIC, will present. Please be aware that the event will mainly be in the dutch language!

🌟 Imagine the power of two industry giants coming together to revolutionize the process industry! That's exactly what SAMSON GROUP and KROHNE have done with the FOCUS-1 device. It's something we are proud of, and that’s why we advocate for it more than once! This isn’t just another company working on the future of process automation—it's 200 years of expertise combined in a single solution! We are building on the legacy of KROHNE & SAMSON, taking the next step to prepare the industry for even more digitalization with advanced software for asset monitoring, health checks, and intuitive equipment management. FOCUS-1 combines the power of SAMSON and KROHNE, paving the way for a more efficient and simplified process industry. Already, more than a hundred process plants are benefiting from the added value of this collaboration... And this is just the beginning. 🚀 Where do you want to see FOCUS-1 go?

Réguler un débit depuis son téléphone, c'est possible !💧 En direct du salon INTERCLIMA, Gazmend BRAHO nous montre comment la FOCUS-1 permet de réguler un débit en temps réel, directement depuis un smartphone. Plus besoin de manipulations complexes, tout se fait à distance et en quelques clics ! 🔧 Ce qui rend la FOCUS-1 encore plus puissante, c’est sa compatibilité avec une large gamme de protocoles de communication, comme HART, ETHERNET, WIFI, MQTT et bien d’autres. Cela lui permet de s’intégrer facilement dans n’importe quel environnement industriel, en facilitant l’échange de données et la gestion à distance. Grâce à tous les processus de communication intégrés dans la FOCUS-1, réguler n'a jamais été aussi simple. #INTERCLIMA #FOCUS1 #Automatisation #RégulationIndustrielle

What if technology could save your equipment from one less trip to the repair center... would you take it? It's a concept we’re already familiar with—think of Tesla. Tesla uses sensors and computing power to optimize car maintenance and peformance. Now, imagine applying that same cutting-edge approach to your equipment with FOCUS-1. Here are three ways we bring our maintenance philosophy to the process industry: 1. Smart Device: Focus One enables predictive maintenance. It not only alerts you to process issues but also guides you on how to fix them. (Examples of process issues are: Cavitation, flashing, wear & tear...etc) 2. Fewer Components: By replacing multiple devices, FOCUS-1 minimizes points of maintenance and potential failures. 3. Digital Backup: Supported by a digital twin, Focus One ensures continuous operation. If a measurement fails, the digital twin steps in, keeping everything running seamlessly. Maintenance can be moved to a stop or a more appropriate moment. Just as Tesla saves you trips to the repair shop, FOCUS-1 keeps your processes running smoothly and efficiently. Want to learn more? We’d be happy to show you how we’re taking maintenance to the next level with more data in the field!

🚨 FOCUS-ON at WOTS 2024! 🚨 Remember the FOCUS-ON YouTube videos? 🎥 Check them out here: https://lnkd.in/gSbN5mhG This week, you have the unique opportunity to meet George Borst in person! 📅 George will be at WOTS 2024, at the Jaarbeurs, Utrecht, The Netherlands.   Alongside KROHNE, George will demonstrate how FOCUS-1, The First Smart Meter Valve, can simplify and optimize your processes. Don’t miss your chance to connect with George from Tuesday to Friday. 📍 Stand 8B054 – Hall 8 #WOTS2024 #FOCUSON #SmartMeterValve #Innovation #KROHNE #Jaarbeurs

How to turn your biggest nightmare into a dream with Smart Tech! Building a process plant requires big investments. You need a lot of equipment, piping, cables, people, and of course, time. If there is a failure that causes downtime, we know one thing for sure: no efficient operation, and this will cost money. So, when we developed FOCUS-1, the world's first smart meter valve, we thought of something clever. If one of the measurements stops working, the computer within the device takes over. A digital twin, so to say. With the digital twin, it is not needed to fix or even detect a problem at the moment of failure. The digital twin keeps the process running on the required process variable. Downtime could be your biggest nightmare... But the good news is that it doesn't have to be. You can keep dreaming happy dreams by choosing the right smart equipment. Interested to find out more? Visit our website.

What Happens When Your Go-To Expert Isn’t Available? When I'm on a roadshow promoting the FOCUS-1, I always ask, "Who here is the expert on equipment displays?" Usually, there's a moment of silence, and then one person steps forward—the go-to expert. They know exactly how to manage the valve positioner displays and troubleshoot the system using the manual. But here’s the real challenge: What happens when that expert isn’t available? Especially in the process industry, where operations run 24/7, this can cause real problems. The result? Phone calls, wasted time, frustration... This is a classic knowledge bottleneck, and its costing efficiency. Our vision is to solve these bottlenecks with a software-independent dashboard. Accessible via any smart device through a web browser, we've designed it to be so intuitive that no specialized knowledge is required for configuration or updates. You can even upload documents, videos, and other materials to support your team, all secured behind a cyber-safe login system.
