‘Grinding Wheel’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Jena Tec offers ballscrew repair discount from
Jena Rotary Technology, which we summarised at the time by saying "Jena Tec can repair ballscrews of any make, type or configuration, with whichever type of ballscrew transfer system.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Solidworks CAD software used in blind car from
SolidWorks Corporation: "Solidworks 3D CAD software is helping a team of Virginia Tech students with a project hoped to enable blind drivers see with their hands and ears. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from AM Bromley
- take a look at Tyre pressure monitoring system saves downtime
which says: "Ferrybridge Power Station has fitted its Terex TS40 Motor Scraper with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TMS) supplied by AM Bromley as part of a tyre management programme with Earth Mover Tyres.".
Take a look also at the news release from MiniTec UK, Minitec releases News 2009 brochure,
as well as Schaeffler offers compact FAG wheel bearings from Schaeffler (UK),
and MX7 grinder makes tools with up to 16mm diameters from Anca Industrial Supplies.
