We’re working to develop an innovative centrifuge that reduces power consumption through FRP weight reduction and carbon emission cuts.
Hello, this is Sanghoon Park from ARK’s PR team.
About two months ago, we launched a 3D design contest for our upcoming next-generation centrifuge. What might the centrifuges of the future look like?
As global efforts to reduce greenhouse gases intensify, carbon reduction has become an urgent and essential goal. At ARK, we are actively participating in government-led carbon reduction initiatives in South Korea and are currently conducting various R&D projects aligned with this mission.
Our primary focus lies in enhancing the convenience of centrifuges used in precision processes, while also advancing toward fully automated systems — especially in terms of reducing energy consumption and automating polymer injection to a complete automation level.
By replacing certain heavy components of the centrifuge with FRP (Fiber Reinforced Plastic), we aim to reduce the load during high-speed rotation, ultimately lowering overall power consumption.
We also plan to undertake various projects involving AI-based vision recognition technologies.
Now, shall we take a look at the 1st and 2nd prize-winning designs created by talented designers here in South Korea as part of our recent contest?
These designs will be gradually refined in line with our vision and ultimately reborn as products that align with carbon reduction goals in the water industry.
We sincerely appreciate your continued interest and support.
