‘Nanotechnology’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Ceram tests resilience of YSZ used in implants from CERAM, which we summarised at the time by saying "Ceram is offering a full suite of testing for Yttria-Stabilised Zirconia (YSZ) destined for surgical implants, as defined in ISO 13356 standards. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Subcontractor invests in Promaster laser system from Laser Lines (Industrial and Medical): "Laser Lines has completed its first UK installation of an Optec Promaster laser system at Laser Micromachining of St Asaph, North Wales.".
 
In September 2009, we covered the news from Digital Surf - take a look at Digital Surf updates Mountains software which says: "Digital Surf, the surface metrology solutions provider, has introduced Mountains 5.1, the latest version of its Mountains surface imaging and analysis software.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Heason Technology, Heason to supply nanopositioning manipulators, as well as Positioning stages with sub-nanometre resolution from PI (Physik Instrumente), and PI nanopositioning stages deliver accurate motion from PI (Physik Instrumente).
