An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Procter relaunches Nelsa machine shop guards from Procter Machine Guarding, which we summarised at the time by saying "Procter Machine Guarding is relaunching the Nelsa range of high-quality machine shop guards, backed by a commitment to high standards of customer service.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Tendoturns help make pinions for steering systems from Schunk Intec: "At its Schwabisch Gmund site in Germany, ZF Lenksysteme is using Schunk's Tendoturn VDI 30 and 40 hydraulic-expansion holders to make precise pinions for passenger car-steering mechanisms.".

In March 2009, we covered the news from Andantex - take a look at Reconditioned driller/borer has high precision which says: "Obled-Sacsum has reconditioned its Poreba boring and drilling machine using a Dualdrive rack-and-pinion-drive system from Redex Andantex. ".

Take a look also at the news release from Anilam, Turret mills sell well, as well as Threadform duplication adds life to worms from Renold Gears, and Tools catalogue provides one-stop shop from Eriks UK.
