By Jack Helm, Account Manager – Beverage, Bakery & Functional Foods at ACI Group In modern baking, efficiency often hides in plain sight. Behind every successful loaf or pastry is a series of calculated decisions, small tweaks in formulation, ingredient choice, or process design that quietly improve quality, reduce waste, and drive down costs. To many, a recipe may appear fixed and finite. But to those focused on continuous improvement, it is a blueprint open to refinement. Efficiency in baking isn’t always about large-scale changes. Often, it comes from small, precise adjustments: a more balanced hydration ratio, a refined fat-emulsifier…

Adtran has introduced a cutting-edge solution for precision timekeeping with its new Oscilloquartz Time Scale System, designed to meet the stringent requirements of national metrology institutes, aerospace, and national defence sectors. The comprehensive system aims to address the growing need for accurate and reliable time synchronization, particularly in environments where GPS/GNSS signals may be interrupted. The Oscilloquartz Time Scale System integrates a range of advanced timekeeping technologies, including Adtran’s Oscilloquartz grandmaster clocks, GPS/GNSS receivers, and high-performance optical cesium atomic clocks. By combining these elements with a phase comparator, reference generator, and time interval counter, the system ensures precise synchronization with…

Rx Networks, a leading provider of GNSS data services, has introduced a new correction service designed for power-sensitive applications requiring accurate location data. The service, TruePoint | LITE, delivers sub-metre and lane-level precision with global coverage, all while minimising power consumption. This innovation is expected to benefit a wide range of devices, including smartphones, wearables, asset tracking systems, and Internet of Things (IoT) devices. Traditional GNSS (Global Navigation Satellite Systems) correction methods, such as Differential GNSS (DGNSS), demand frequent data updates, resulting in high power usage. However, TruePoint | LITE employs cutting-edge predictive technologies that reduce errors in GNSS data—such…
