AUMA Italiana, a national and international point of reference for electric actuation solutions for industrial valves, will participate in the sixth edition of IVS - Industrial Valve Summit , scheduled to take place at the Bergamo Fair from 19 to 21 May 2026.
IVS is now much more than a trade show: it's the place where the entire industrial valve and flow control supply chain meets to discuss ongoing transformations, from new energy scenarios to plant digitalization. In this context, AUMA Italiana confirms its presence to actively contribute to the dialogue between valve manufacturers, EPCs, and end users, placing application experience and technological vision at the center.
During the three-day Summit, AUMA will have its own exhibition space to meet with customers and partners and present electric actuation solutions designed to make systems more reliable, efficient, and future-proof . These technologies go beyond valve actuation to integrate advanced diagnostics, communication, and maintenance support features, simplifying the daily work of those managing complex systems.
The key themes at IVS 2026, from artificial intelligence to applications for hydrogen, renewables, CCUS, and nuclear power, reflect a rapidly evolving industry. It is precisely in this context that electric actuation is taking on an increasingly strategic role, becoming a key element in ensuring operational safety, service continuity, and intelligent process control. AUMA Italiana will bring to the trade fair its expertise, developed over decades of field applications, in sectors where precision and reliability are not an option but a necessity.
"IVS is a valuable opportunity to engage directly with the entire industry community," comments Andrea Villa , Managing Director of AUMA Italiana. "Being present means listening, sharing experiences, and contributing to the development of solutions that increasingly meet the industry's real needs."
With a global presence and a strong focus on research and development, AUMA continues to invest in technologies that can drive the evolution of the valve industry, supporting customers and partners on a journey of concrete innovation, long-term reliability, and a focus on sustainability.
AUMA awaits you at IVS - Industrial Valve Summit 2026, Hall A - Stand 32 , to meet, exchange ideas and discuss the future of industrial valve automation.
Digital monitoring improves motor reliability in a cement manufacturing plant
WEG and Nuova Ites implement WEGSCAN solution to improve efficiency Nuova Ites Srl, a leading European company specializing in the repair and overhaul of rotating electrical machinery, recently partnered with industrial equipment manufacturer WEG to improve operational monitoring of one of the key industrial motors at a cement plant. As part of its ongoing commitment to reliability and performance, Nuova Ites installed the WEGSCAN electric motor monitoring system, a cutting-edge solution developed by WEG to monitor motor performance and identify potential issues before they impact operations. Nuova Ites, a specialist in the repair and overhaul of rotating electrical machinery across Europe, with over 800 wind turbines fully serviced in collaboration with leading operators such as Vestas, Enel, and ERG Renew, identified the need for continuous motor monitoring in a high-load application. In this case, a 132 kW, 2-pole WEG special series motor was coupled to an Atlas Copco compressor, forming a critical component of the customer's production process. Performance and reliability in this mixed-equipment configuration were crucial, but visibility into the motor's condition was limited. To address this issue, WEG supplied and installed a complete monitoring solution consisting of the Cassia X2000 Gateway and the WEGSCAN 100 unit. Following a WEG technical visit to the Nuova Ites workshop in late 2025, the equipment was ordered and delivered in early January 2026. The system was configured on-site to meet the specific application requirements and integrated into the monitoring processes of both Nuova Ites and the cement plant. The WEGSCAN system is designed to support real-time monitoring of multiple operating parameters, including vibration signatures, temperature trends, and other mechanical and electrical health indicators. Its dual-access capability allows engineers to view data from a standard PC interface or smartphone, facilitating remote condition monitoring and immediate performance visibility. Supporting the monitoring infrastructure is the Cassia X2000 Gateway, which serves as the system's communications hub. The gateway enables reliable wireless connectivity between the WEGSCAN device and the wider network, ensuring that operating data from the engine can be transmitted and accessed in real time. Designed for demanding conditions, the gateway operates over a wide temperature range of −40 to 65°C, ensuring stable communication between sensors and monitoring systems in harsh operating environments. By acquiring continuous operational data, Nuova Ites is now able to identify early signs of abnormal behavior and proactively plan maintenance, helping to reduce unplanned downtime, optimize service interventions, and improve overall energy efficiency. This level of insight is particularly valuable in environments where the costs of downtime and reactive repairs are high. "For Nuova Ites, the monitoring system has become an essential tool in its service portfolio, helping to integrate condition-based maintenance into the standard workflow and offering customers greater reliability and full lifecycle support," said Fabrizio Arosio, Head of Drive and Automation Systems at WEG Italia. “With the ability to more closely monitor critical engines, the company is better equipped to anticipate problems, optimize maintenance planning, and provide data-driven insights that add measurable value to asset performance and business continuity.” Digital monitoring technologies like WEGSCAN also help make industrial operations more sustainable. By providing continuous information on engine performance under real-world operating conditions, operators can keep equipment closer to its optimum efficiency point. In energy-intensive industries like cement production, improving the efficiency and lifespan of critical rotating equipment plays an important role in reducing overall resource consumption and supporting more sustainable plant operations.
