‘Compressors’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
DC motors engineered for transportation purposes from
Ametek Technical and Industrial Products, which we summarised at the time by saying "Rotron brushless DC motors from Ametek, engineered for applications on board heavy-duty transit buses, coaches and other vehicles, deliver long-life power solutions serving up to 60,000 hours.".
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 Sullair Europe
- take a look at Sullair unveils redesigned 200hp compressors
which says: "Sullair Corporation has announced the redesign of its 200hp compressors, which feature the company's single-stage rotary screw air end.".
Take a look also at the news release from CompAir UK, CompAir unveils low-maintenance screw compressors,
as well as Variable speed compressors are energy efficient from CompAir UK,
and Accelerometers obtain hazardous-area certification from Wilcoxon Research.
