Published

on

LUND, Sweden, Jan. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Alfa Laval is proud to announce the establishment of a state-of-the-art Food Innovation Centre in Copenhagen, Denmark. The project is a significant milestone in Alfa Laval’s capex investments. The facility will be dedicated to supporting food producers in overcoming the escalating challenges of expanding food production for a growing global population while minimizing environmental impact.

By 2050, the world will need up to 70 percent more food to ensure sufficient supply for the growing global population, according to the United Nations. Over the same timeframe, the food sector is striving to reach net zero targets and implement sustainable practices across value chains in diverse industries. With more than 140 years of experience in the food industry, Alfa Laval is committed to supporting the sustainable transition in these vital sectors. A recent increase in capex investment has kicked off the establishment of a new Food Innovation Centre in Copenhagen, Denmark.

“This investment is one piece of the puzzle in tackling the challenges of supplying sustainable food today and in the future. We see our role as enabling the essential transition of the global food system to meet both the increasing demand for food and also producing food in a radically different way, using less water, less energy and with a holistic approach to resources. To us, this is what pioneering positive impact really means,” says Sammy Hulpiau, President of Alfa Laval’s Food & Water Division.

The Food Innovation Centre will be located at the headquarters of Alfa Laval’s Food and Water business and will serve as a hub for cutting-edge research and development. It will focus on innovative solutions to enhance food production efficiency, sustainability, and resilience. By leveraging advanced technologies and fostering collaboration with industry experts – from start-ups to global food corporations and academia – Alfa Laval aims to drive transformative change.

Work on the new facility has already begun, with the opening planned for 2027. The centre will cover around 1,200 m² and include a visitor centre. Its location places it in the heart of Denmark’s thriving bio-solutions scene and the strong academic base of the Copenhagen and Southern Sweden region.

This investment underscores the company’s long-term vision and responsibility towards the transformation of the global food system. The centre will provide food producers with the tools and knowledge needed, utilizing both existing technology and future innovations through AI and digitalization, to adapt to changing environmental conditions and meet the demands of an increasing population.

Highlighted OLED and Micro-LED products include: Dual-Screen Multi-Curved Color-Matched OLED Display; 3D Instrument Cluster; 12.3″ LTPS Mini-LED InvisiVue™ Display; Integrated Reflective Imaging System (IRIS) Panoramic Head-Up Display; and a new Light Field 3D-HUD.

CHINO, Calif., Jan. 9, 2025 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ — Tianma, a leading global manufacturer of flat panel displays, is featuring an expanded portfolio of display technologies for the automotive market at CES, West Hall Meeting Rooms – W323, Las Vegas, Nevada, January 7-10.

Highlighted OLED and Micro-LED automotive products at CES 2025 include: Dual-Screen Multi-Curved Color-Matched OLED Display; 3D Instrument Cluster; 12.3″ LTPS Mini-LED InvisiVue™ Display; Integrated Reflective Imaging System (IRIS) Panoramic Head-Up Display; and a new Light Field 3D-HUD.

Highlighted OLED and Micro-LED products include: Dual-Screen Multi-Curved Color-Matched OLED Display; 3D Instrument Cluster; 12.3″ LTPS Mini-LED InvisiVue™ Display; Integrated Reflective Imaging System (IRIS) Panoramic Head-Up Display; and a new Light Field 3D-HUD.

Dual-Screen Multi-Curved Color-Matched OLED Display

Tianma’s Dual-Screen Multi-Curved Color-Matched OLED Display, developed in conjunction with Corning, offers unparalleled visual clarity in automotive applications. This innovative true-black display features a unique multi-curvature design, with a left curvature radius of R800mm for optimal driver focus, a middle curvature radius of R1140mm, and a right curvature radius of R2160mm to accommodate the passenger.

The system seamlessly bonds two color-matched 13″ OLED displays to the multi-curve cover glass made possible with Corning® ColdForm™ Technology. The result is a single, continuous screen providing an enhanced visual experience.

Equipped with advanced Stacked Layered OLED Device (SLOD) technology, this display is not only thinner and lighter but also boasts an extended lifespan, making it the perfect choice for modern vehicle interior design.

12.3″ 3D Instrument Cluster

The 12.3″ 3D Instrument Cluster is the industry’s first automotive instrument display screen that employs liquid crystal prism technology to achieve 2D/3D switchable functionality. It is also the first automotive display screen to achieve 500 pixels per inch (PPI). This instrument cluster offers real-time adjustable 3D depth, along with lossless switching between 2D and 3D modes. Additionally, the module adopts Tianma’s own light field rendering technology, providing drivers with a stable, continuous and comfortable 3D visual experience.

12.3″ LTPS High Transmissivity InvisiVue™ Mini-LED

This display features a highly transmissive decorative layer that looks like brushed metal or wood grain in the non-operating state, while the active area of the display is invisible to the user. When the display is turned on, only the image content emerges through the 80% transmissive decorative layer. The combination of a Mini-LED backlight and the high-transmissivity decorative layer yields a high-quality image for improved visual perception and user experience.

Integrated Reflective Imaging System (IRIS) Panoramic-HUD

The IRIS PHUD, independently developed by Tianma with its sophisticated optical path design, precisely projects images to the bottom edge of the vehicle’s windshield. It can adopt a triple-screen or large-size bar-shaped display layout, comprehensively covering the visual range of the driver, the center console area, and the front passenger.

Light Field 3D Head-Up Display (HUD)

The 4.1″ Light Field 3D-HUD is the industry’s first 3D-HUD display product utilizing light field rendering technology. It combines an advanced 3D picture generation unit (PGU) with an augmented reality (AR) HUD platform to provide users with realistic 3D scenes and natural depth perception effects. Compared to traditional 2D images, the 3D-HUD offers a more intuitive and immersive AR experience.

Tianma is hosting visitors at their booth in West Hall Meeting Rooms – W323. More information is also available in the Tianma press kit, accessible online at usa.tianma.com/press
