Hearing at the Flemish parliament

Hearing at the Flemish parliament about digitalisation and robotisation

In the field of politics, the university and the business world, many debates have dealt with the future of industry in Flanders. Especially because today the “Industry 4.0” project (also called “Digitalization”) is on our doorstep.

Disaster is displaced, but being aware of the transition is of prime importance. Gathering knowledge on this subject is an important task of our public authorities. This is why our administrator Geert Roelens was asked to present his vision of this development at a Hearing of the Labor and Economy Committee of the Flemish Parliament.

That within SGC – SwitchGear Company spectacular advances have been made in this area has been illustrated by Geert relying on the interview of our CEO Sophie Vandoorne. The challenges of the future cannot be ignored by SGC and we will continue on the basis of the “Industry 4.0” project, because this is guarantying that there more chances for a prosperous future.

SGC switchgear compatible with real service conditions – solutions that address on-site conditions

Extensive research shows that the design of SGC’s medium voltage switchgear results in a very long lifetime of our medium voltage cubicles under real and severe service conditions.
Where the IEC standards prescribes tests under controlled laboratory conditions, does SGC goes many steps further, including higher temperatures, higher temperature fluctuations and more humidity. This in combination with our cabin monitor which measures all on-site conditions, ensures more operational reliability.
Despite the choice of the switchgear design and the on-site conditions, accidents or failures cannot be ruled out, but by using our SV-25 Arc Killer the impact of such an accident or failure can be significantly reduced and the safety of the operator can be guaranteed.

After a short presentation associated to a quiz, the pupils had the opportunity, by means of scientific games as the Tesla spheres and the electrical path, to learn on a playful way the basics of electricity. After a short pause, the kids visited the medium voltage museum and the production hall of SGC.
