X5 Pack Curtainless X-Ray System
Engineered to be curtain-free, this solution allows inspection of lightweight, unsealed or dry unpackaged food products with zero curtain contact. The X5 Pack Curtainless features an incline/decline conveyor design, protective shields and safety features, helping limit X-ray emissions levels well below regulatory requirements. The system’s baffle plates remove the line of sight into the X-ray beam and restrict the aperture height to 85 mm, reducing emissions to less than 1 μSv/hr without the need for aluminum filtering. With its setup wizard, the X5 Pack Curtainless can learn and switch products within minutes.

FDS Nano Twin Screw Pump
This twin screw pump supports precision dosing and metering, making it ideal for applications in the pharmaceutical, life science, dairy, food and personal care industries. The FDS Nano is engineered to handle viscous products of up to 1 million cP and is capable of managing entrained air levels of 70%. Its axial movement facilitates precise dosing and metering, ensuring delicate products are processed at optimal quality levels with minimal waste. One feature of the FDS Nano is its ability to pump both process and clean-in-place (CIP) fluids at speeds up to 4,000 RPM.

X52 Dual Energy X-Ray Inspection System
The X52’s proprietary software transitions between single energy, dual energy or both modes, optimizing the performance of the system depending on the application. In single energy mode, the X52 identifies contaminants, including glass, metal, mineral stone, calcified bone, dense plastic and rubber compounds, based on their material composition. Dual energy mode further enhances accuracy by analyzing materials' densities. The X52 reduces false rejects, distinguishing between genuine contaminants and product variations. The X52 offers increased sensitivity, thanks to its use of proprietary Advanced Material Discrimination (AMD) and ContamPlus software. The AMD dual energy software enhances the system's ability to differentiate between materials, offering precise contaminant detection.

Certa Compact Pump
WMFTS has expanded its Certa Sine pump range with a space-saving model, the Certa Compact. The design of this model enables a 30% footprint reduction compared to the existing Certa Sine pump range while maintaining the integrity of a premium pump, and it is ideal for applications up to 87 PSI. The Certa Compact offers the same product features as the existing Certa Sine pump range but with a more flexible and simplified design that saves assembly time and cost for an integrator during the installation project.
Grundfos
MLE Motor
This motor includes a power output of up to 30 horsepower (HP), an integrated Safe Torque Off (STO) function, Modbus RTU built-in as standard, Bluetooth connectivity and an Ethernet port. With its integrated STO function, the motor mitigates the risk of exposure to high pressure or hazardous liquids in open systems, ensuring safety for workers and the environment. Furthermore, the motor offers a variety of connectivity options, enabling communication with Grundfos GO and access to Cloud and Grundfos GO Link via the Ethernet port. Its variable speed drive allows users to adjust motor speed to match system demand, resulting in maximum energy savings of up to 30% compared to NEMA premium efficient motors. FE
