‘Dimensional Accuracy’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Abssac torsion springs have linear spring rates from Abssac, which we summarised at the time by saying "Abssac supplies unwind and wind-up torsion springs with linear spring rates. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Galil controller aids border patrol surveillance from Galil Motion Control: "Galil Motion Control has provided a DMC-4020 controller for the US Border Patrol's surveillance system. ".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Schunk Intec - take a look at Schunk toolholding suits five-axis machining which says: "Schunk has developed a series of toolholding solutions for five-axis machining processes.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Adept Scientific, Maplesoft solution enables fast model development, as well as Rotary encoders provide 1nm and 2nm resolutions from Renishaw, and RDP transducers give direct analogue output from RDP Electronics.
