Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Distributors increase southern exposure from
Parker Hannifin - SSD, which we summarised at the time by saying "Electrical engineer and contractor TA Boxall and drives and controls specialist SDS sign up to distribute Parker SSD drives in the South of England".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Pressure transducers keep cooling water flowing from
Setra Systems: "When Process Cooling began using Setra products about a dozen years ago, it started with the Model 206 Gauge Pressure Transducer but soon moved to the Model 256".
In June 2007, we covered the news from Profibus Group
- take a look at Presentation details released for conference
which says: "The Profibus International User group Conference will hear a report on some of the challenges facing a contractor in the water industry".
Take a look also at the news release from Ethernet Direct, Members only Ethernet area launched,
as well as Awards help address shortage of female role models from Institution of Engineering and Technology,
and Fastening advice helps optimise product design from Northern Precision.
