In 2017 the Endress+Hauser Group once again invested more than seven percent of sales in research and development. ?With 261 patent filings, as well as 467 approved patents, we are innovating at a high level again this year,? says Angelika Andres, head of the patent law department at Endress+Hauser. Many of the developments stemmed from liquid analysis, level and flow measurement technologies.
?In order to strengthen the Group?s position in this competitive environment, we protect our innovations with patents in the very early stages,? says Dr Andreas Mayr, Corporate Director Marketing and Technology at Endress+Hauser. 2017 saw several new innovations, as Endress+Hauser introduced 57 new products to the market, including the self-calibrating iTHERM TrustSens thermometer and the Promass Q, which delivers highly precise mass flow, volume flow and density measurements.
