What are the key benefits of automation in a food manufacturing facility? Productivity. In the 2024 Horizons: Digital Age of Food Manufacturing report, the vast majority of survey respondents told us increased output/yield, reduced labor or costs, reduced downtime/cleaning/changeover between products were the most attractive operational advantage of automation. What else are they saying? Check out the Horizons: Digital Age of Food Manufacturing for more on emerging trends and factors affecting the food industry’s transformation in the age of digitalization.

Happy Women’s Equality Day! In honor of this day, our Women at CRB employee resource group hosted a meeting where members talked about equality, equity and intersectionality. ERG chair Jasmin Gerber also led a discussion about taking care of your body and mind, and offered insights on how to create a system that works for you and your family. Thank you, Women at CRB, for a great session! #WomensEqualityDay #CRBLife

🎶 Splish splash, fastened our safety catch/ All along the Basel Rhine, yeah/ A wet jump, a massive human clump floating ‘long the waterside 🎶 Last week, our Europe team took part in a yearly Rhine swimming tradition. CRBers from Basel welcomed their counterparts from Stuttgart to form a floating team for this annual event. The weather could not have been more perfect! After the float from Tinguely Museum to the exit point in St. Johann, our team enjoyed a lovely evening in the urban wilderness, Holzpark, nearby. It is wonderful to see how our teams come together to celebrate traditions like this together. We are already looking forward to next time. Thank you, Basel, for sharing this with us! #CRBLife

A huge thank you to all of the interns who spent their summer with us across our offices! We enjoyed getting to know all of you – hearing your perspectives and insights, watching you apply the skills you know and learn new ones, and building relationships with us and each other. The summer may be coming to an end, but your careers are just beginning. We know this won’t be the last time we see you! We are excited to see great things from you all! #CRBLife

Are you using simulations to spot problems and increase efficiency?  Through simulated testing, CRB’s Consulting team identified the culprit of inconsistent product quality: air entrainment and a 160% reduction to the upper impeller’s power input to the fluid. Air entrainment disrupts mixing efficiency, leading to reduced process efficiency and quality.   Gain valuable insights from CFD simulations to support and enhance your bioprocess engineering for greater efficiency, throughput, and quality.
