‘Electric Motor’

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 HT Servo motor has integrated microstepping driver from HT Servo : "HT Servo has released its improved Silverpak 23D Plus, a high-torque NEMA 23-step motor with an integrated microstepping driver. ".

In November 2009, we covered the news from WEG Electric Motors - take a look at WEG motors drive Brazilian theme-park attractions which says: "WEG motors, inverters and soft starters are allowing the safe operation of equipment at the Beto Carrero World theme park, located in Santa Catarina, Brazil. ".

Take a look also at the news release from Galil Motion Control, Galil controller aids border patrol surveillance, as well as Emerson installs controls at Korean plants from Emerson Process Management, and Bambi introduces silent oil-free compressor range from Bambi Air Compressors.
