An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Turbine producer adopts NSK cost-saving programme from
NSK UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "By employing a programme of material substitution and longer-life lubrication technology, NSK has achieved significant cost savings for a manufacturer of micro wind turbines. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release NSK bearings save costs for carbon-fibre producer from
NSK UK: "NSK's SpaceA range of bearings has solved a problem of premature failures of stainless-steel bearings used in the manufacture of carbon graphite and composite materials for aerospace applications. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Henkel Loctite Adhesives
- take a look at Henkel brochure now fits in the pocket
which says: "Henkel has published a pocket-sized version of its solutions guide.".
Take a look also at the news release from Hepcomotion, Dualvee technology extends to subzero climates,
as well as SKF launches high-speed linear profile rail guides from SKF UK,
and Switch plate lubricant certified as biodegradable from Kluber Lubrication GB.
