🔹Yokogawa OpreX™ Control of Work New Video: Industry 5.0 | Interconnected Worker Safety 🔹 Officially created in the year 2011, Industry 4.0 brought in the concept of the smart factory. The main aim was to enhance productivity, efficiency, and flexibility and allow for a more intelligent and efficient way of working. More recently, innovations like machine learning, robotics, and AI have dramatically boosted productivity across various sectors. However, these advancements have not always been mirrored in workplace safety metrics. This needs to change. As industry leaders, it's crucial to recognise that while technological capabilities have soared, the focus on worker safety must also rise to meet new challenges. Regulatory bodies are increasingly holding senior management accountable for the consequences of non-compliance and safety, with incidents resulting in significant fines, loss of profits and reputation. This is where Industry 5.0 comes into play, with the safety and well-being of workers being central to the rapidly evolving landscape of workplace technologies. Industry 5.0 marks a new era where workers, advanced technology and AI driven robots work together seamlessly. Having been at the leading edge of digital worker safety for over 30 years, Yokogawa’s OpreX™ Control of Work software, RAP4, is perfectly positioned to advance into Industry 5.0. The software enables companies to embed a culture of safety excellence, providing real-time access to vital safety information and ensuring compliance and consistency across organisations. By leveraging RAP4 and its abilities to interconnect with innovative technology, companies can significantly enhance worker safety, leading to reduced incidents, increases in operational efficiency and cost savings. Join us. Together, we can create workplaces where intelligent, Smarter, Safer Working is embedded into everyday maintenance, helping everyone from the ground up. #Industry5.0 #Innovation #SafetySoftware #SmartWorking #WorkplaceSafety #DigitalTransformation #OprexControlofWork #Yokogawa #RAP4

We were inspired by the recent Valve World article featuring Marc Simoëns of Dow Benelux, which highlighted the importance of thorough valve inspections in maintaining safety and process integrity. As an OEM valve parts manufacturer, BOLA-TEK firmly agrees that attention to detail is paramount for ensuring the highest quality standards. Key Takeaways ✨ Quality inspections go beyond expectations: "You get what you inspect, not what you expect." ✨ Valve inspections must cover comprehensive checkpoints across international standards to prevent potential failures. ✨ Proactive quality measures can prevent risks, ensuring reliable performance for critical operations. For a deeper understanding of how attention to detail in valve inspections ensures safety and process integrity, we invite you to read the full article. It highlights valuable insights on the importance of thorough inspections and quality control in preventing potential failures and maintaining high standards in industrial operations. #valves #ballvalves #qualitycontrol #OEM #manufacturing #safety #valveinspection #QC #BOLATEK #ContinuousLearning #NeverStopGrowing

In 2020 the Global Vonk Choke valve production (which had been serving the market for some 50 years) ceased, this highly efficient ,simplistic designed and very popular valve was made obsolete and disposed of by then owner Emerson. The VONK valve was good, maybe too good. Valve and Flow Control Specialists as of 2023 has been pleased to say our operation continues to fulfil the support role of all Vonk products in the Australasia region. This role will mean the simplistic and economical maintenance of Vonks can continue for many years to come. Quoting the old part numbers we can supply approved replacement components OR we can through ongoing R & D technology / material enhancements supply wear parts that far exceed the old standard parts. Your choice we are here to support clients either way. In addition NEW valves are also being made available, still manufactured in Netherlands. Vonk choke valves had always been the “go to” valve where other manufacturers products were challenged in difficult severe service applications involving high pressure drops and volumes of sand or Hydrogen Sulphide (H2S). They handled these applications while maintaining class V shutoff in service where others struggled to achieve class III when new then degenerating thereafter in ongoing operation. Their trim design is robust and solid, easily maintained and it consists of just 4 key major parts or sections: a bean, a turning fork, a front disc and a protecting brush. The valve design is based on a rotating disc principle, which ensures optimal control and top performance proven to be effective for decades. Some examples of the main uses of Vonk Choke valves are the petrochemical industry, mining industry, oil and gas exploration on and offshore and underground gas storage. In these environments, their specific applications are for handling slurry, handling drilling fluids, fracturing, gas injection, water injection, steam injection, oil and gas production, as blow down valves, as gas lift valves or as level control valves.
