Start with the news release
BCT extends Resolution HMI SBC options from
Blue Chip Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Blue Chip Technology (BCT) has followed up the launch of its Resolution HMI single-board computer kit with the release of a supporting Linux BSP and the addition of a 7in LCD module. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Airchannel helps timber specialist save energy from
Airchannel: "Airchannel has installed a variable speed compressor for DG Heath (Timber Products) that will provide a 50 per cent energy cost saving per annum. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Schaeffler (UK)
- take a look at FAG Dtect prevents power-turbine failure at Corus
which says: "An FAG Dtect X1 online vibration-monitoring system has prevented the failure of a steam turbine at a Scunthorpe Corus plant, and in doing so has saved thousands of pounds in lost power generation.".
Take a look also at the news release from Ion Science, TVOC monitor can be installed without barriers,
as well as Turbine producer adopts NSK cost-saving programme from NSK UK,
and Dynamometer helps maintain satellite position from Kistler Instruments.
