Start with the news release
Robot to inspect nozzle welds in nuclear reactors from
Phoenix Inspection Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "A EUR1.4m (GBP1.3m) research and development project aims to develop a lightweight robot for the automated inspection of nozzle welds in nuclear reactors. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Zouch foamed acrylic tapes are visco-elastic from
Zouch Converters: "Zouchmount EHB tapes are 100 per cent closed-cell foamed acrylic tapes.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Ansys
- take a look at Ansys EKM addresses simulation and data management
which says: "Ansys has released its Engineering Knowledge Manager 2.0, a product focused on simulation process and data management (SPDM). ".
Take a look also at the news release from Multipix Imaging, DVR package has range of available interfaces,
as well as IMAG assists energy-efficient product upgrade from Industrial Motors and Gears,
and PCB provides linear motion for abrasive blasting from PBC Linear.
