CORREGAS DEAL TO BOLSTER ZERO-EMISSION
Coregas, Hyundai and Jemena have signed a deal to strengthen hydrogen supply lines to Australia’s zero-emission vehicle industry.

The trio recently signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) that sees the production and delivery of hydrogen gas to Hyundai’s Macquarie Park headquarters from early 2021.
The gas will then be used in Hyundai’s hydrogen-powered vehicle refuelling station.
The MoU is the latest green light for Hyundai’s zero-emission initiative following the Australian Government’s formal certification of the carmaker’s hydrogenpowered Fuel Cell Electric Vehicle (FCEV), the NEXO.
While the NEXO is cleared for use on Australian roads, it is currently only available to governments or fleets with access to a hydrogen refilling station.
Coregas executive general manager Alan Watkins describes the partnership with Hyundai and Jemena as a significant your publication logo your publication logo step forward for Australia’s hydrogen vehicle industry.
“Australia’s lack of hydrogen refilling stations and associated infrastructure is consistently cited as a barrier to the growth of a strong domestic zero-emission vehicle industry,” he says.
Australia currently has only one hydrogen refuelling station.
“Our partnership with Hyundai and Jemena is the first step towards demonstrating that Australia has the opportunity to be a world leader in the hydrogen-powered vehicle industry.”
Under the MoU, Jemena will develop a power-to-gas project in Western Sydney which will produce green hydrogen. Coregas will provide hydrogen compression installation, pipework and connectors for filling and discharging, as well as hydrogen packaging, transportation and quality control services.
It’s not the first time Coregas and Hyundai have teamed up; Coregas helped bring Hyundai’s hydrogen-powered concept car to life in 2015. Hyundai’s ix35 Fuel Cell was powered by Coregas hydrogen.
FCEVs combine hydrogen and oxygen to produce electricity, which runs the motor. With an official range of over 650 kilometres, hydrogen-powered FCEVs like Hyundai’s NEXO can travel much further than pure electric vehicles and can be refuelled in under five minutes, much like a petrol car.
The only emission from a hydrogenpowered FCEV is water vapour from its tailpipe.
In Australia, the only permanent hydrogen refuelling station is located at Hyundai’s Macquarie Park headquarters in Sydney. A second station is under
construction in the ACT, with others planned for Melbourne and Brisbane.
The largest hydrogen vehicle fleet in Australia is the 20 Hyundai NEXO SUVs soon to be deployed by the ACT Government.
“This is the first of many small steps needed to accelerate the use of hydrogen and fuel cell technologies for transportation in Australia,” Watkins says.
“Coregas looks forward to contributing to the future of clean energy and green transportation in Australia.”
The global hydrogen-powered vehicle industry was valued at around $650 million in 2018, and is projected to be about 60

IMPROVE WELDINQ QUALITY – PROFILE SCANNING
Metal fabrication is a manufacturing process that utilises a variety of techniques to shape or join sheet metals into assembly parts, goods or enduser products such as cans, pipes, metal windows, automotive parts, bolts, screws and much more.
It is used to manufacture components for application in industries such as aerospace, agricultural, automotive, construction, medical, military and defence as well as OEM.
Welding is one of the most common techniques used for joining metal sheets during fabrication. It’s also one of the most used methods in the metal fabrication process.
Advanced growth in technology has enabled the development of welding robots for calculating welding processes in advance before they are carried out. This enables the manufacturer to fully automate their welding process while maintaining the quality of the welded seam.
High precision sensors and scanning technology have been used and integrated in the welding robot for optimising the weld quality. However, these systems are costly, which prompts manufacturers to question their need for that optimisation.
The weld quality quantifies a welded joint’s ability to perform the functional requirements of the weld during the service life of the welded product. It can be durability, corrosion resistance, appearance and other mechanical functions.
Numerous research studies have shown a correlation between fatigue strength and weld quality.
Substandard weld quality significantly increases the risk of failures at the early stage and should be avoided.
On the other hand, excessive welding increases fabrication cost and does not add customer value to the product.
Laser Profile Scanner as a welding quality inspection system
Inspection of welding quality should be done on both the insides and outsides of the welds. The ideal inspection system primarily requires sensors that are able to detect the height and width of the welded seam as well as interruption and residue clinging on to the seam.
The sensors should also be capable of performing inline measurement in the production line.
Non-contact laser profile scanners are popular for factory automation applications due to their high-speed, high accuracy scanning even when used in-line. The laser profile scanners detect the shape deviations and fault locations on the welded seam. It can also detect foreign contaminants such as welding wire residue left during the welding process.
The laser profile scanner works based on the laser triangulation principle by projecting a laser line into the target. The diffusely reflected light is registered onto the CMOS array in the camera optical system while the controller computes the profile data.
The controller also uses this camera image to calculate the position along the laser line in x-axis and distance in z-axis. These values are output in a two-dimensional coordinate system that is fixed with respect to the sensor.
The profile scanners can also be moved back and forth or used for performing measurement on traversing objects to generate 3D profiles.
The inspection is carried out after the welding process while the parts are still hot. This is done as the products can be passed on for rework if errors are detected at this early stage.
The tolerance limit is defined and saved in the system. The pass/fail assessment is conducted based on this saved limit. This high-speed inspection system can measure with 10kHz sampling rate to inspect 100 per cent of the parts.
Scanner integration in welding robots
Robots have been widely used to automate the welding process. To achieve optimum quality of the welded seam, robots scan the seam and calculate the optimum welding path to optimise the amount of materials used. To be technically feasible, this requires a high precision profile scanning system.
The design of the laser profile scanners is also compact to enable installation into hard-to-access areas and, for high-volume OEM applications, integration into robots or machinery as well.
The scanner can be easily fixed into welding robots to detect the geometry of the seam to be welded before the actual welding process begins.
Once the scanning starts, the robot can calculate the number of welding passes, the position of the weld seams, the weld speed and the oscillation width. Then it automatically performs the welding process and finds the optimum welding path based on the calculated results.
Some profile scanning systems are available with smart and integrated controllers in the sensor head to enable calculation of profile properties such as width, edge angle, groove, gap etc. This smart feature is essential for measurement and inspection during production of longitudinally welded pipes.
Manufacturers are required to know the exact edge position based on the sheet edge length and ensure that the sheet edges are aligned perfectly. The laser profile scanner also offers a noncontact, wear-free and fast measurement of these parameters to ensure they are perfectly aligned before welding starts.
Other potential industrial welding applications
Industries such as mining or applications such as pipeline maintenance may also benefit from utilising laser profile scanning systems for inspection of welded seams.

Mining machineries such as excavators incur high capital cost, making it more economical to repair worn parts than replacing them with brand new ones. The steel parts on an excavator chain link wear out after approximately four years of continuous operation in harsh environments
The eroded parts should be welded to restore the chain links to working order.
The surface of the defective area can be scanned with the profile scanner to obtain the 3D profile and calculate optimum welding line. Surface pre-treatment is not required prior to welding due to the high quality of the scanning and high resolution of the data.
In industrial applications, pipeline maintenance is essential to ensure continuous supply of utilities and continuous operation of the process plant and machinery. Laser profile scanners can be used to automate the inspection process of the external welded seams. These are installed directly above the seam for real-time monitoring
The deviation of the welded seam position from the ideal central position can be communicated to the inspection unit via analogue signal.
Ultimately, laser profile scanning is a simpleto-operate yet high-end measurement system that offers high versatility and superior resistance to moisture, dirt and corrosion. Operated via PC, it has a wide range of measurement applications in industrial and factory automation.
The scanners measure with high precision and accuracy with fast response times and can easily be adapted to achieve sharp, reliable measurement on various surfaces including oily, metallic and reflective bases.

Suited to high output coffee production environments, this feature allows roasters to produce their own ‘Block-Bottom Gusset Bag’ without needing to purchase this packaging as a pre-made bag.
Goglio makes the desired blockbottom coffee packaging design at half the cost of purchasing pre-made bags.
The attractive aesthetic and practical design of the Block-Bottom Gusset Bag allows products and their branding to be showcased neatly, upright and with a strong shelf presence.
“The capability to achieve the popular block-bottom design in a cheaper and more productive way for coffee brands is something we are very excited about,”
Global warehousing and forklifts solutions leader Yale is expanding its range of UX series electric lift and tow trucks in Australasia for customers seeking international standards of service, quality and safety for their individual material handling needs – without buying features they do not need.
The new UX range is engineered to bring to a wider range of users Yale's value proposition – “Simply Efficient” – which has at its core the understanding that, if a forklift usage is only around four hours a day, companies do not need a more expensive forklift that has been designed to handle all-day, everyday applications.
The expanded UX family delivering this no-nonsense, uncomplicated approach to materials handling with efficiency and strong safety features now includes 3-wheel forklifts in 1600-2000kg capacity (pictured), pallet lift trucks in 1500kg capacity and stand-up and sit-down tow trucks in 3000-6000kg capacity respectively. “All are engineered to expand the long-established strengths of the Yale brand into wider markets seeking a quality, cost-efficient solution backed globally by service and customised solutions to meet explained Daniel Malki, General Manager, and Jet Technologies.
“The block-bottom design allows for improved styling of product branding, which comes at an advantage to brands wanting to stand out from others in the market.”
Until now, brand owners have needed to purchase a pre-made bag to achieve the desired block-bottom look, which is more expensive.
This was typically filled either by hand or required stand-alone filler, which added further overhead costs.
Now coffee brands can use high productivity VFFS machinery to simultaneously make and fill the BlockBottom Gusset Bag to order and in line with demand.
The block-bottom design works uniquely to combine the functionality of a stand-up pouch with all the benefits of a side gusset bag. users’ needs for applications requiring less frequent usage,” says Hyster-Yale Area Business Director, Pacific, Mr Mark Chaffey.

GETTING THE RIGHT PUMP FOR LARGE AND HARD PARTICLES
Do you need a tough and durable pump that is suitable for pumping large and hard particles such as fish, cut offs and animal by-products?
The unique construction of the JS Lamella pump enables it to pump large and hard particles such as bones, tissues and fat.
There are many scenarios where transferring solid materials without adding liquids is required. Another model, the JL Lamella makes it possible to pump an inhomogeneous product over long distances. One example would be food processing when pumping thick consistency foods like minces or vegetables to make patties.
These consistencies must be mixed to a particular recipe that cannot take further moisture. Another example would be transporting bone and offal in an abattoir or meat process plant.
The transportation of pre-broken bone and offal can be a costly area of production, which can be simplified and more cost-effective. The pre-broken product can be transported [un-manned] within fully enclosed pipelines. The closed pipe system reduces hygienic problems and odours.
Because of the pump’s compact design and ability to pump in a closed pipe system, the JS Lamella Pump replaces other systems such as screw conveyors, progressive cavity pumps, pressure tanks and conveyor belts.
The LeakShooter LKS 1000–V2+ is an ultrasonic compressed air, gas and vacuum leak detector with a camera.
It is capable of finding all leaks even the smallest, including those no bigger than the size of a syringe needle, at a distance of 15 metres.
When it comes near a leak, a yellow target appears on the large colour screen and turns red and shrinks as it approaches the source of the leak. When the device is facing the leak, a cross appears in the centre of the target. Specialising in Test & Measuring Equipment 1800 358 531 sales@rapid-tech.com.au
The enclosed pipeline system ensures more sanitary conditions. The product is much less likely to be contaminated by insects, dust or water [rain]. This cannot be guaranteed when using screw conveyors or manual transfer systems like forklift and bins.
The Lamella pumps also reduce labour and maintenance costs for operation in comparison to a blow tank or manual system. A manual transfer system requires a manned forklift, which also brings into play wear and tear on the forklift, increases
OH&S risks and increases the chance of equipment damage.
Using a blow tank system requires an operator, and this system also requires the addition of water, which needs to be cooked out of the product, using more fuel than that required for a JS Lamella pump transfer system.
Maintenance on a screw conveyor can get expensive. Re-welding flights, straightening screws, wear on the flights are all maintenance issues for screw conveyors transporting tough materials like cattle bones. Also, when distances become too long, a screw conveyor becomes less economical and more problematic.
Additionally, the Lamella pump has lower energy and maintenance costs, as well as a higher capacity, in comparison to other systems. The JS Lamella Pump does not require any manned operation, which reduces the risk of injuries.
