This is what typical components look like that can be manufactured on Wickert cleanroom presses. The industries include pharmaceutical, medical technology, biotechnology, etc., and so on. Wickert also notes an increasing demand for such products—and consequently for its presses. (Image: Wickert) The cleanroom presses from Wickert Maschinenbau in Landau are also completely enclosed. The so-called gray area cannot contaminate the cleanroom. However, these are just some features that allow the machines to process elastomers in sensitive environments. (Image: Wickert) This is what a cleanroom-compatible hydraulic press from Wickert Maschinenbau looks like, for example. To prevent anything from going wrong in these sensitive areas, the housing is made of stainless steel. Its contours are also designed to be easy to clean. But that's not all ... (Image: Wickert)

Increasing demand in the pharmaceutical and medical technology sectors, as well as from manufacturers of bipolar plates and components in the semiconductor industry

Cleanroom presses from Wickert: Key technology for elastomer processing

Wickert Machinery reports a significant increase in demand for specialized hydraulic presses for elastomer processing in cleanrooms. These systems are primarily used for manufacturing closure systems for pharmaceutical packaging, in the production of bipolar plates for fuel cells, or in sealing and…

The central functional areas of the fan in axial (left) and radial fans (right): the impeller as the aerodynamic core (green), the motor with integrated electronics as the drive unit (orange), and the stator, meaning the air-guiding and supporting structures (blue). (Image: ebm-papst) The minimum efficiencies for axial fans have been gradually increased since 2013. Starting in 2026, a minimum Fan Efficiency Grade of 50 percent will apply – the static total efficiency at the Best Point is decisive. (Pe = electrical input power; ηmin = minimum fan efficiency; ηse = static total efficiency; BEP = Best Point) (Image: ebm-papst) The requirements for radial fans with backward-curved blades are also increasing. From 2026, the minimum required Fan Efficiency Grade will be 64 percent, setting a new efficiency standard. (Pe = electrical input power; ηmin = minimum fan efficiency; ηse = static overall efficiency; BEP = best point) (Image: ebm-papst)

ErP: What is changing now for OEMs, plant builders, and operators

Stricter efficiency requirements, clear system boundaries, and new manufacturer obligations

With the ErP 2026, the European Union is significantly tightening the requirements for fans starting in July. New efficiency thresholds, revised assessment methods, and expanded documentation obligations affect not only fan manufacturers but also OEMs, system integrators, and operators. ebm‑papst in…

Occupational Safety Guidelines 2026: Why stainless steel is the backbone of modern industry. (Copyright: ULMA Lifting Solutions)
  • Products, devices, systems, plants for applications

The industry is facing an unprecedented wave of regulation: efficiency alone is no longer sufficient. Companies must ensure safety for employees, seamless product integrity, and the sustainability of all equipment and processes.

Occupational Safety Guidelines 2026: Why Stainless Steel is the Backbone of Modern Industry

From the effective date of the latest updates to ISO 45001 to the tightening of industrial safety protocols (such as RD 302/2026), companies in sectors like the food and pharmaceutical industries face a fundamental paradigm shift, for which the choice of floor conveyors is a decisive factor.
