‘Building Services’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
EDTC to provide support for engineering ideas from
EDTC Technology Gateway, which we summarised at the time by saying "EDTC Technology Gateway will be providing support services at the Manufacturing Technology Scotland show, which is scheduled to take place on 11-12 November at the SECC in Glasgow.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release SGS inspects storage tanks at refinery from
SGS SA - Industrial Services: "SGS Colombia SA has performed storage tank inspections for the expansion of the Cartagena Refinery. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Micromech
- take a look at Fastpack drives cut energy use in fans and pumps
which says: "Micromech has released the Parker SSD drives for fans and pumps, a range of three-phase industrial drives designed to help save energy in applications up to 110kW.".
Take a look also at the news release from Rittal, Engineering service determines how to reduce costs,
as well as Kabelschlepp cable carriers reduce ESD risk from Kabelschlepp Metool,
and Vishay enters strategic partnership with Schneider from Vishay Nobel.
