Malvern Instruments has appointed Bernd Looser to the new post of applications specialist process systems
One of his main areas of focus in this role will be to develop, test and prove new and innovative on-line measurement systems.
Looser will also be involved in the development and execution of marketing activities and in furthering relationships with Malvern's global process customers.
This appointment highlights Malvern's continuing commitment to providing and fully supporting robust, fully integrated on-line particle sizing solutions for industrial processes.
Looser joins Malvern having recently completed a degree in process engineering at the University of Applied Science in Constance, Germany.
He has already contributed to Malvern's product development through his work on the company's patented diluter during a student placement in 2004.
This diluter is now a key component of the recently launched Insitec LPS, a flexible on-line system for wet processes.
Welcoming Bernd, Oliver Schmitt, business line manager for Malvern Process Systems said, "With the addition of the Insitec LPS to our well-established in- and on-line dry analysis technology, Malvern now delivers continuous particle size analysis for an increasingly broad range of industrial processes.
"Bernd will focus on the development of innovative solutions to meet the wide variety of online particle sizing challenges for this growing range of applications."
