SecoWarwick to deploy commercial use of AR technology

SecoWarwick is preparing to deploy the Microsoft HoloLens augmented reality technology in its operations worldwide. The application will be one of the first in the world, and the first in the heavy industry.

Holographic goggles by Microsoft were originally conceived as a top secret project. It’s not a surprise since the AR (Augmented Reality) technologies have been enjoying increasing interest in commercial applications and is among one of the most prominent new technologies global players have been continuously researching and developing. Holographic solutions naturally targeted the gaming market as early adapters. This technology, however, has gained interest among heavy industry representatives, including SecoWarwicK, a leader in heat treatment solutions.   “This is a new era of SecoWarwick equipment application – the interaction era. Probably nobody could envision that cyber goggles, which naturally apply to gaming, can be used in the metallurgy industry so soon after the introduction of the technology. The implementation of virtual technology to our production, maintenance and service processes has become reality”, says Katarzyna Sawka, SecoWarwick Group Marketing Director.  
The company has always had a special interest in new technologies due to its innovative culture, hence the company immediately identified the HoloLens technical potential and has taken steps to practical implementation of the technology globally. The synergy of both heavy industry and holographic solutions may completely redefine the metallurgy and heat treatment market. Why? It has been long believed that new technologies in metallurgy industry are not only impractical but also obsolete. The implementation of virtual technologies for the production, maintenance and servicing of SecoWarwick solutions is already a reality.   “We pride ourselves as leaders in innovation as members of the prestigious techBrainers R&D Club along with our significant investment in research and development obligates and allows us to reach for the newest technologies”, adds Paweł Wyrzykowski CEO of SecoWarwick Group.

Swegon advances air handling units with recycled steel

Swegon is advancing a more resource-efficient and circular construction industry with the launch of the next-generation GOLD air handling unit, generation G. Designed to meet rising HVAC and building-sector demands, over 70% of the total steel weight is now represented by recycled steel and almost 60% of the total material weight is recycled material. As a result, the new unit – significantly reduces its embodied carbon while maintaining the performance and reliability expected of a GOLD unit.
