Hide AdThe company, which has won a number of awards in the UK and Europe for its technology, recently launched an advanced range of universal smart instruments after three years of research and development.
Pulsonic said this innovative technology sets it apart from traditional industrial instruments by using the same software and powerful processors that are used in the latest smart phones and satellite navigation systems.
It said that this gives customers a smart instrument which has an interface that is as easy to navigate as a computer game. Pulsonic believes that the problem with the industry is that industrial instruments have been left behind in their development over the past few decades compared with consumer products such as mobile phones, sat navs and computers.
The group said that its new instruments will reverse this trend.

He added that this commitment to the development and investment in new advanced products has been key to winning orders from companies such as Cott’s, which require the best technology available throughout their factories.
Pulsonic is in advanced negotiation with a number of UK companies over waste water management schemes.
The company has also seen increased sales from overseas, particularly Mexico, France, China and South Africa.
