In the Mining Industry, where safety is the number one priority, it is critical to have a reliable partner who can offer the products and services to ensure the teams get the job done safely, whether they’re working in a drag line, high wall surface mine, conventional underground, or long wall mine.
Segments within the oil and gas industry share many of the same trends, primarily stemming from the global transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy. Upstream, midstream and downstream areas are increasing productivity through technological advancements including hydraulic fracturing, extracting natural gas from shale and making plans for carbon capture, utilization and storage.
The new wave of industrial manufacturing has begun. It includes smart and autonomous systems partnered with data and machine learning. Ultimately, these result in smart factories, where assets, processes, people and devices are all connected. Parker technologies help maximize plant efficiency and productivity while reducing costs and waste.
Parker has strong engineering expertise and capability in developing custom solutions to fit specific applications. Our expertise ranges from fluid and gas handling technology to sealing and electromechanical solutions. Pure. Safe. Stable.
Emissions regulation is trending. There are rounds scheduled in the U.S. in 2021 and 2024 to further reduce CO2 emissions and fuel consumption in trucks/buses. In addition to converting from diesel to electric, OEMs look for ways to reduce weight and improve aerodynamics.
The global HVACR systems market continues to grow with demand largely driven by the introduction of innovative products that are energy-efficient and can be remotely accessed. Manufacturers remain under pressure to meet increasingly strict governmental regulations designed to minimize the impact of the industry on the environment. The COVID pandemic additionally challenged the industry to survive supply chain disruptions and produce products that meet higher air quality standards.
Aggressive materials, extreme temperatures and pressures and hazardous byproducts are challenges typical of chemical, rubber and plastics processing, metal refining and water treatment. Parker serves customers worldwide with air, gas and liquid filtration, generation and conveyance solutions, instrumentation offerings and remote condition monitoring and preventive maintenance systems that enhance plant safety and product quality, minimize down time and enable compliance with regulations.
Global power generation and renewable energy includes eight major industry segments: Biogas and Landfill; Coal, Oil and Gas-Fired Boilers; Gas Turbines; Reciprocating Engines; Solar, Wind and Water Energy; and Transmission and Distribution. Climate change and digitalization will be key trends driving global power generation in the coming decade as the world accelerates replacing fossil-fuels with renewable energy.
The International Maritime Organization has mandated reductions in greenhouse gas by 2030. Ships that burn fossil fuels will have to buy more-expensive low-carbon fuels or install exhaust cleaning systems. Other ships already are retrofitting to run on liquified natural gas.
Parker draws on its commercial and industrial filtration expertise to offer an unmatched array of solutions for controlling airborne metalworking byproducts and minimizing their adverse effects on plant safety, worker health, equipment life and product quality.
Segments within off-road machinery share many of the same trends. Construction, agricultural, mining, forestry, material handling and lawn & turf equipment are increasing productivity through technological advancements. Innovations include automation and robotics, implementing digital technology, meeting stricter government emissions standards by shifting to battery-powered equipment, and redesigning for a safer workplace.
Collaborating with medical and analytical device OEMs – as well as biopharmaceutical and pharmaceutical companies – Parker experts work one-on-one with customers to create and deliver inventive systems and subsystems that break new ground.
Certain trends will impact the transportation industry’s major segments, including truck/bus, automotive, marine and rail. Emissions standards, electrification, smart/connected vehicles, and autonomous vehicles are some key developments that will alter the way the industry advances and influence how engineers approach their work.
