‘Fieldbus Interface’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Liberty University wins simulation software grant from
Simio, which we summarised at the time by saying "Simio has awarded a USD300,000 (GBP180,000) simulation software grant to the School of Engineering and Computational Science at Liberty University in Virginia.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release IFM releases safety monitors for AS-interface from
IFM Electronic: "IFM has launched new versions of its safety monitor for equipment on the AS-interface.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Comsol
- take a look at Comsol release accesses cluster-compute power
which says: "With the release of Multiphysics v4.0 for Windows HPC Server 2008 (HPCS), current users of a Comsol Multiphysics floating network licence will have free, unlimited access to cluster-compute power.".
Take a look also at the news release from Renishaw, Renishaw Tonic benefits wide-format printing,
as well as CNC router reduces time to market from Micromech,
and Alrad introduces GigE Vision line scan camera from Alrad Instruments.
