Start with the news release
Blow-Off Station removes coolant, chips and dust from
Royal Products, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Blow-Off Station from Royal Products is suitable for the removal of coolant, chips and dust from workpieces and other components. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Magnetic-drive blowers boost natural gas from
Ametek Technical and Industrial Products: "Rotron MD 101 magnetic-drive regenerative blowers from Ametek Technical and Industrial Products are designed to boost natural gas in furnaces for manufacturing operations. ".
In July 2009, we covered the news from SGS SA - Industrial Services
- take a look at SGS will attend Spanish wind-energy conferences
which says: "SGS has announced plans to attend the Wind Powerexpo 2009 (22-24 September) and the Technical Conference on Risk Assessment (13 October 2009) in Spain. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Wago Corp, Splicing terminals feature no-twist connections,
as well as L-O-X combines filter, regulator and lockout valve from Ross Controls,
and Arcad upgrades AFA software from ArcAd.
