Our awarded technology.

Taking First Place in WRG’s Innovation Competition 2020: flucon’s EPSILON+.

We received good news from the city of Göttingen: flucon won first place in this year’s Innovation Award of the district.

During an online event, District Administrator Bernhard Reuter presented us with the award for our newly developed EPSILON+ laboratory device.

New headquarter – new home.

flucon makes move to new Barbis HQ.

After seven pretty successful (but recently also very cramped) years in Osterode am Harz, we have expanded our company headquarters with a new location in DE-37431 Bad Lauterberg / Barbis this week.

Available through the pandemic.

Management announcement: flucon will continue their regular business.

The SARS CoV-2 virus is currently spreading everywhere, so that all of us are unfortunately faced with considerable restrictions both in our private and public life. Nevertheless, our company continues to guarantee our customers short lead and delivery times.

In order to minimize the risk of infection and at the same time maintain business operations, we have taken numerous precautions and implemented measures to protect our employees and fellow human beings.

Testing the giant.

Custom built Oil Aeration Machine for high flow rates.

In the opulent shape of an extra-large version of the FOAM Flucon Oil Aeration Machine, our aeration technology is taking on new dimensions. The mobile equipment was modified according to the specific requirements of a southern European customer, and even with individual structure it impresses by reproducibility, functionality and a finely tuned gas concentration (CG) control.

Size matters.

Microscopic examination of gas-in-fluid dispersions.

Thanks to the FOAM oil aeration test rig flucon customers can test their mechanical components or oil with a quantifiable aeration level. In order to produce a stable, transportable air/oil mixture the gas should be dispersed homogenously, in bubbles of minimum diameters.

Of course the exact gas concentration of the aerated oil is always known due to the integrated CG sensor of the FOAM, but now a digital microscope is added to the setup to find out more about the physical form of the entrained air within the two-phase mixture. Exemplary investigations are then made on aerated transmission fluid.
