Measurement technology for the basic materials industry
The spectrum of the basic materials industry includes the mining and processing of raw materials, e.g. coal, ores, wood, rocks and all kinds of minerals. The process chain, from the extraction of the raw materials to the processed basic material, places high demands on the production safety and service life of the associated plants, machines and measurement technology.
The extensive portfolio of pressure, temperature, level and flow measurement from WIKA has been proven in all areas of the basic materials industry. Our robust and reliable measuring instruments are individually customised, based on many years of application experience, and withstand even the most extreme process conditions: Customers trust our instrumentation solutions, for example, for measurements under high-pressure conditions up to 8,000 bar in metal processing, at extreme process temperatures of up to 2,000 °C for metal and glass processing, or in applications with highly abrasive process media.
Via the global sales and service network, internationally experienced WIKA employees are always available locally to our customers for the selection and, if necessary, commissioning of our instrumentation solutions and also for calibration and maintenance operations.
