‘Material Properties’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Micro stepper motors bring pictures into focus from
EMS, which we summarised at the time by saying "Electro Mechanical Systems has supplied Precistep micro-stepper motors to Life Optics to allow it to develop a compact, reliable and light-weight head-mounted microscope.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release ABB drives reduce swimming pool energy bills from
ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors): "ABB drives have helped a UK holiday park operator save GBP77,000 a year on energy bills for its swimming pools. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from James Walker and Co
- take a look at James Walker designs advanced seat material
which says: "Working closely with valve manufacturers, James Walker Devol has developed Devlon V-API as a superior seat material that would overcome the individual shortcomings of all the other material grades.".
Take a look also at the news release from SGS SA - Industrial Services, SGS offers acoustic emission testing package,
as well as Guide covers specification of rail conduit systems from Adaptaflex,
and Dassault Systemes releases latest PLM 2.0 platform from Dassault Systemes.
