Start with the news release
Nitrogen generators cut costs of food packaging from
Parker Hannifin - Parker Sales UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Phil Green, at Parker Hannifin's industrial division, explains how the latest nitrogen-generation technology can help food and beverage companies increase their operational efficiency and cut costs. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Kistler offers sensitive and robust torque sensors from
Kistler Instruments: "Kistler's piezoelectric torque sensors have a wide measuring range and are adaptable to match most configurations, making them suited to manufacturing-process monitoring. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Micromech
- take a look at Fastpack drives cut energy use in fans and pumps
which says: "Micromech has released the Parker SSD drives for fans and pumps, a range of three-phase industrial drives designed to help save energy in applications up to 110kW.".
Take a look also at the news release from ZWCAD, ZWCAD update allows switching between drawings,
as well as AC drives permit wider use of magnet motors from Parker Hannifin - Electromechanical and Drives Division,
and Cross introduces pneumatic backwashing filter from Cross Manufacturing Co (1938).
