‘Bellows Couplings’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
PCB provides linear motion for abrasive blasting from
PBC Linear, which we summarised at the time by saying "PBC Linear was asked to provide a linear-motion system for the abrasive blasting of fabricated steel that could tolerate extreme environments. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Centa offers bespoke transmission designs from
Centa Transmissions: "Centa Transmissions can create bespoke powertrain designs for wind, wave, tidal and solar power systems.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Ondrives
- take a look at Ondrives simplifies online ordering process
which says: "Ondrives is introducing its redesigned website, which was officially launched on 4 November 2009.".
Take a look also at the news release from BETE, Fitting gives free orientation for hydraulic hoses,
as well as AAC offers range of metric Neo-Flex couplings from Advanced Antivibration Components,
and HBM torque flange has measuring range from 200Nm from HBM GmbH.
