We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Project Engineer",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Turnkey MV motor system moves monster crane from
WEG Electric Motors (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "Transformers, motors and frequency inverters are used to automate the second largest overhead crane in the world, at the Usiminas steel plant in Brazil".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Dampers control oil refinery doors from
Industrial Gas Springs: "While it is a somewhat slow process to open the doors when there is no wind, there is no need to exert any force on them".
In October 2007, we covered the news from Richard Alan Group
concerning its Custom skids
- take a look at Custom skid installed for medical application
which says: "A partnership of the Richard Alan Group and process design specialist, Manrochem, has designed, manufactured and installed a bespoke skid for a UK medical device manufacturer in just 4-weeks".
Take a look also at the news release from Radan Computational, CNC cuts lead times for navy supplier,
as well as Fluid analysis software saves time and money from Flomerics,
and Motion control aids nuclear research from Motion Solutions Australia.
