Sensors
In Sensors, you’ll help us develop sensor solutions for our pumps and pump systems. The sensors we work with range from flow, pressure and temperature sensors, to optical, vibrational and electromagnetic sensors. Furthermore we also work with soft sensors. Our projects are typically within these areas:
- Sensor principles
- Hardware electronics, which include both analogue and digital electronics
- Sensor packaging and integration
- Signal processing
Contact: Michael R.S. Hansen
Water Treatment
In the Water Treatment Department, we undertake projects aimed at ensuring that water sources are of the appropriate quality for final use, regarding both chemical and biological parameters. Additionally, we work on optimizing water treatment systems, to help our customers succeed in reducing their water footprint.
Contact: Bruno Kiilerich
Automation-Robotics
Within Automation-Robotics you’ll find projects related to how to make smart automation solutions using robots and IT supporting tools.
Contact: Morten Houlind Simonsen
Machine Learning
We’re continuously exploring, developing, and testing new technologies within the classical fields of engineering. Within Machine Learning, you’ll find projects that are closely tied to the physics of our products.
