‘Gearboxes’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Accelerometers obtain hazardous-area certification from
Wilcoxon Research, which we summarised at the time by saying "Wilcoxon Research has announced an additional intrinsically safe certification in accordance with IECEx requirements for six general-purpose accelerometers.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Renishaw TRS2 saves Lamborghini EUR150K a year from
Renishaw: "Same Deutz-Fahr, manufacturer of Lamborghini, Same and Deutz-Fahr tractors, has cut non-productive tool checking on four Mazak FMS cells by retrofitting Renishaw's TRS2 tool-recognition systems. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Rodriguez (UK)
- take a look at Universal Robot increases production capacity
which says: "RA Rodriguez has introduced the Universal Robot into the production process at Danish engineering company Linatex to allow better use of manpower and an increase in production capacity. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Schaeffler (UK), Gearbox monitoring system reduces downtime,
as well as McLennan releases E192 and P205 DC gear motors from McLennan Servo Supplies,
and CBM system ensures reliability of Shetland ferries from AV Technology.
