Fpt Industrial and Petronas married today
Every engine has its own lubricant. It is one of the golden rules to be respected when you want to guarantee the reliability of an engine as the use of oils that are not aligned with the mission profile that the engine must fulfill or, worse, of low quality, inevitably leads to degradation progressive performance and an increase in consumption, leading, in the most serious cases, to inducing failures which then prove costly to resolve. Hence the need to lubricate each unit with the most suitable oil, both in terms of…

Read MoreLuv, the table grape fair, arrives in Bari
Despite the economic difficulties that have led to a reduction in national production in recent years from one million 400 thousand to one million tonnes, Italy remains the most important European producer and exporter of table grapes. This is also thanks to the period of strong evolution experienced by the sector through that path of varietal innovation which reached its peak with the variety characterized by seedless grapes which in practice led to changes not only in field production, but also in marketing and in consumption.

Read MoreValtra, personalized technological training
One of the main challenges any industrial sector faces when producing goods for mass consumption lies in the need to teach potential customers how to fully utilize the functional capabilities of those goods. This challenge becomes more complex as the commercial offerings become more technologically advanced. An example of this can be seen in the digital features offered by the latest generation of tractors, which are capable of operating with high levels of automation and autonomy, provided that users know how to program them and appropriately manage the human-machine interfaces…

Read More“Cingo M600A-e” by Merlo, the autonomous sprayer for specialized crops
It is a common opinion that the automation of agricultural machinery will lead to an almost complete revision of their current design layouts. Confirming this, a recent Bosch study, sponsored by the German Ministry of Economic Affairs and aimed at the automotive sector, suggests that future autonomous vehicles will have little in common with current ones, both in terms of structures, occupant accommodation, and driving. In fact, cars will essentially become “mobile spaces” where passengers can engage in their activities without worrying about driving. It is easy to predict that,…
