‘Dimensional Tolerance’

A Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Manusoft presents EDM system from Manusoft Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Manusoft has released the Imold V9 EDM system, which automates the electrode design process and assists the manufacture of detailed and hard-to-machine features on moulds and press tools. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Hepcomotion updates single-edge slide system from HepcoMotion: "Hepcomotion has updated its Bishop-Wisecarver (DMT) Dualvee motion technology single-edge slide system from the linear motion range.".
 
In November 2008, we covered the news from ESAB - take a look at ESAB offers flux-cored wires which says: "OK Tubrod 15.14 is the latest generation of all position rutile, low-hydrogen flux-cored wires from ESAB. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Ricardo, Ricardo launches engine simulation product, as well as Upgrades for analysis and presentation software from Adept Scientific, and Measuring stations inspect glass quality from Micro-Epsilon UK.
