‘Dimensional Stability’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
James Walker designs advanced seat material from
James Walker and Co, which we summarised at the time by saying "Working closely with valve manufacturers, James Walker Devol has developed Devlon V-API as a superior seat material that would overcome the individual shortcomings of all the other material grades.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Pressure transducers measure up to 20,000psig from
Endevco: "Endevco has announced the 8511A series, a range of piezoresistive gauge pressure transducers designed for maximum reliability in extreme measurement environments. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors)
- take a look at ABB drives reduce chilled-water energy bill
which says: "Eight ABB standard drives are saving Ginsters bakery a potential 17 per cent annually on its chilled-water energy bill, following installation on chiller pumps at its Callington bakery in Cornwall. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Kistler Instruments, Dynamometer helps maintain satellite position,
as well as Ondrives simplifies online ordering process from Ondrives,
and Huntsman expands Probimer 77 solder resist range from Huntsman Advanced Materials.
