Summary:
A French SME based in the south of France has developed a mechanized system to replace filters in few seconds which can be used on piping fluids transportation (gas, liquids).
The company is now looking for a partner with a good knowledge of end-user applications and processes in order to adapt the solution to the specifications of the filter's market.
Description:
The French company, located in the south of France, is based on one motto: their solutions enable one person with zero tools to open a pipe and change or insert quickly on line a blind plate, a rupture disc, or a conic filter.
Their mechanical system is set in factory for all the long lifetime of the equipment :
- Tightness will be guaranteed whoever is going to operate the system (it is not a question of force-torque or knowledge)
- Repeatability and reliability of the operation is guaranteed
New applications/uses expected: enable end-users to replace a blocked/dirty filters in few seconds instead of hours and so improve the efficiency of the production unit.
New markets expected: all foods industries, papers, oil and gas, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, waters treatments, and all new markets known by the future partner.
The company is now looking for a small or medium industrial company specialized in filter manufacturing with, ideally, an international sales network (internal or agent networks) for a commercial agreement with technical assistance.
Type (e.g. company, R&D institution…), field of industry and Role of Partner Sought:
