EIT can be implemented on any line irrespective of its line integrator or original equipment manufacturer. Developed for key markets such as the beverage, food, home and personal care, and even pharmaceutical industries, the system has been designed to optimize performance and to increase reactivity. EIT enables operators to react faster and most appropriately while at the same time reducing waste and energy costs.
