The range of applications for the NDI central system includes food and packaging processes, research & development, vacuum conveying systems as well as medical and laboratory applications.

Hygiene, economy, reliability In these areas of application, hygiene, economy, reliability, compactness and ease of operation are important to the operators. For vacuum values such as the final pressure or pumping speed, process-dependent flexibility is required. "In view of these requirements, the strengths of our oil-free, air-cooled screw vacuum pump NOVADRY come into their own", emphasises the responsible Product Manager, Dennis Schröder. "In addition to accumulating air and water vapour mixtures, the robust screw vacuum pump introduced in 2019 tolerates, among other things, contamination of the gas flow with organic acids, food additives or other residues. This ensures long operating times," Schröder continues.

Smart control of all processes By equipping the standardised NDi pump systems with the VAControl CAB, Leybold ensures intelligent control of all processes. Continuous data recording ensures maximum production quality, with the encrypted pump data available regardless of location. Individual users can access the server at any time - users can choose between local, remote or cloud connectivity. Direct control of the system is possible via various interfaces and end devices.

Maintenance and service recommendations of the vacuum system The intelligent software functions that Leybold has stored in the control system are all practical and user-friendly and serve the entire process planning: For example, they can be used to control the starts and stops of several pumps, the pressure control and the cloud communication via GENIUS. The maintenance and service recommendations of the vacuum system are generated by the powerful computer depending on the operating times.

Strong vacuum performance The standardised NDi vacuum systems are available fully assembled in different pumping speeds: as ND 400i with 400 m3/h pumping speed and as ND 600i version with 600 m3/h pumping speed. A strong vacuum performance up to a working pressure of 5 mbar, intelligent pressure adjustment and control of the target pressure complete the features of the smart NDi vacuum package from Leybold.

This makes the NOVADRY VDi pump system with integrated VAControl CAB suitable for the following applications:

In industrial vacuum processes, the requirements for smart performance management and energy efficiency are constantly increasing. For more intelligence, variability and efficiency in coating, drying and heat treatment processes, vacuum specialist Leybold has therefore developed the VARODRY VDi vacuum system with integrated VAControl CAB control. The pump systems of the new series consist of the air-cooled, oil-free VARODRY screw pumps, the dry-compressing Roots pumps of the RUVAC series as well as the VAControl CAB control for smart management of all pump processes.

Atlas Copco has acquired Tekser Endüstriyel Cihazlar Sanayi ve Ticaret A.Ş. Tekser is a distributor of Leybold vacuum equipment, as well as vacuum service, in Turkey.

With its new virtual showroom, Vogelsang GmbH & Co. KG offers its customers and interested parties a 360-degree view of grinding and pumping solutions for a wide range of industries.

With the TURBOVAC iR variants, vacuum manufacturer Leybold is launching a new, complete turbomolecular pump series, technologically derived from the proven TURBOVAC i family.

As the Pet Supplies Industry Association published in a press release, the sales figures for the pet food and supplies industry have recently increased significantly compared to previous years: Ready-made pet food alone generated just under €3.5 billion in online trade.

Leybold UK opened its newly extended service facility in Chessington, Surrey, offering a comprehensive in-house service for the SCREWLINE dry screw pump range, along with the capability for the larger portfolio of dry pumps.
