An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Icona updates Aesthetica software from
Icona Solutions, which we summarised at the time by saying "Icona Solutions has introduced version 3.1 of Aesthetica, the perceived-quality simulation and visualisation software.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release GE Fanuc releases RTU version of PAC8000 from
GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms UK: "GE Fanuc Intelligent Platforms has introduced the PAC8000 RTU (Remote Terminal Unit) Controller, a rugged, field-mountable platform. ".
In July 2009, we covered the news from Saft Industrial Batteries
- take a look at Saft presents battery technologies at EP Shanghai
which says: "Saft is showing its portfolio of battery technologies developed to meet the specific needs of renewable energy applications for efficient and reliable energy storage solutions. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Nord Drivesystems, Same-day assembly extended to Nordbloc 1 motors,
as well as SK 200E frequency inverter range launched by Nord from Nord Drivesystems,
and Lambert fits Schmitt AEMS into Bryant grinder from Schmitt Europe.
