‘Dimensional Stability’

A Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Quicksilver releases application note from QuickSilver Controls, which we summarised at the time by saying "Quicksilver's ability to handle large inertial loads (large inertial mismatch) allows the company to direct drive large product reels. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Ricardo launches engine simulation product from Ricardo: "Ricardo has announced the launch of WAVE-RT, the first version of Ricardo's engine simulation product.".
 
In November 2008, we covered the news from Michell Instruments - take a look at Michell extends Sensor Calibration programme which says: "Michell Instruments has extended its Sensor Calibration Exchange programme to the recently introduced Easidew TXIS dew point transmitter.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Micro-Epsilon UK, Measuring stations inspect glass quality, as well as Igus to release the E4.350 plastic energy chain from Igus UK, and Rittal supplies busbar system from Rittal.
