WORK Microwave Wows Crowds at POWTECH 2013

with High-Precision Sensor Solutions

HOLZKIRCHEN, Germany - June 14, 2013 - WORK Microwave, a leading European manufacturer of high-precision sensor solutions, wowed crowds at the POWTECH 2013 trade show. During the company's first appearance at the premier exhibition for powder, granular, and bulk solids technologies, WORK Microwave demonstrated the breadth of its resonator-based sensor portfolio, including the unique ability to accurately measure moisture, mass, density, or foreign particles within materials leveraging an unlimited frequency spectrum.

"POWTECH 2013 provided us with the perfect stage to address the strategic initiatives of our sensors division, including increasing our global customer base and identifying additional applications," said Thomas Wiesner, sales manager, WORK Microwave. "We're extremely satisfied with interest we received from members of the pharmaceutical, food, grain, bulk, and building materials communities at the show. Harnessing these new relationships, we look forward to expanding our business into a variety of untapped vertical markets."

Relying on a powerful microwave technology that measures the influence of material on an electromagnetic field without the use of nuclear radiation, WORK Microwave sensors can uniquely handle microwave frequencies of up to 65 GHz at a rate of up to 10,000 measurements-per-second, making them ideal for demanding in-line applications. Unlike competitive offerings that only support a 1 to 2 GHz frequency range, WORK Microwave sensors - which can be easily customized to a customer's exact application requirements - feature an adaptable mechanical design that supports several different frequency ranges, ensuring easy implementation into existing production lines. A highly robust construction minimizes maintenance requirements, optimizing their use in rugged environments.

Typical applications include measuring moisture, residual moisture, mass, density, or the identification of foreign particles and substances in materials such as food, pharmaceuticals, chemicals, paper, tobacco, and more. At POWTECH 2013, WORK Microwave showed attendees how the sensors can specifically be used to measure the humidity levels of grain during the drying process, moisture in insulation materials, and humidity in quartz and chalk, in addition to optimizing the quality control and granulation processes for gauze bandage and pharmaceutical production, respectively. By measuring multiple parameters simultaneously from a single sensor device, WORK Microwave solutions dramatically streamline operational workflows.
