Start with the news release
WEG motors drive Brazilian theme-park attractions from
WEG Electric Motors, which we summarised at the time by saying "WEG motors, inverters and soft starters are allowing the safe operation of equipment at the Beto Carrero World theme park, located in Santa Catarina, Brazil. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Emerson installs controls at Korean plants from
Emerson Process Management: "Emerson Process Management has been selected by Korea Southern East Power Company (KOSEP) to install its Ovation expert control system at two power generation facilities in Korea. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Objet Geometries Europe
- take a look at F1 car features parts produced using Objet printer
which says: "The front and rear aerofoils and elements of the wheel mechanisms and axel supports in a winning Formula 1 (F1) car were produced using an Objet Alaris30 3D printer.".
Take a look also at the news release from SKF UK, SKF systems boost uptime of Isis neutron choppers,
as well as University of Manchester buys 20 NI Elvis units from National Instruments,
and Nexans to supply ice-resistant control system from Nexans.
