An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Split roller bearings used on colliery conveyors from
Revolvo, which we summarised at the time by saying "SRB Split Roller Bearings from Revolvo are being used at the Hatfield Colliery near Doncaster. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Leuze switches offer distances up to 40mm from
Leuze Electronic: "Leuze has expanded its range of high-quality inductive proximity switches, including models with switching distances of up to 40mm. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Watlow
- take a look at Watlow's Profibus DP simplifies plant design
which says: "Watlow has brought out the Profibus DP (Decentralized Peripherals) with EZ-Zone PM and EZ-Zone RM integrated temperature controllers. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Objet Geometries Europe, Objet material offers rubber-like characteristics,
as well as Flexicon enhances range of compression fittings from Flexicon,
and LPC-395F fanless PC features removable storage from Stealth Computer Corporation.
