Start with the news release
Multimill handles both roughing and finishing from
TaeguTec UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Taegutec has launched the Multimill solid-carbide end mill for roughing and finishing operations, which is said to improve productivity by eliminating tool changeover times. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Tyre pressure monitor on the race track from
Stack: "Stack has announced a batteryless Tyre Pressure and Temperature Monitoring System (TPMS), based on patented SAW sensor technology and aimed at the motorsport market.".
In June 2009, we covered the news from Camcoat Performance Coatings
- take a look at Camcoat improves efficiency of Le Mans cars
which says: "Camcoat Performance Coatings, based in Warrington, ceramic coated the exhausts of 20 per cent of the cars entered in the 2009 Le Mans 24-hour race.".
Take a look also at the news release from Teseo UK, Revolvo production line uses Teseo air systems,
as well as Zircotec exhibits thermal coating from Zircotec,
and EOSINT P 800 makes components from polymer powders from EOS Electro Optical Systems (UK).
