‘Rolling Bearing’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
ABB drives reduce swimming pool energy bills from
ABB Automation Tech (Drives and Motors), which we summarised at the time by saying "ABB drives have helped a UK holiday park operator save GBP77,000 a year on energy bills for its swimming pools. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Designing joints and structural adhesives from
ITW Plexus: "Sally Sinai, technical manager of ITW Plexus, considers the issues that should be considered before designing joints to be bonded together with structural adhesives.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from AM Bromley
- take a look at Tyre pressure monitoring system saves downtime
which says: "Ferrybridge Power Station has fitted its Terex TS40 Motor Scraper with a tyre pressure monitoring system (TMS) supplied by AM Bromley as part of a tyre management programme with Earth Mover Tyres.".
Take a look also at the news release from Schaeffler (UK), FAG Dtect prevents power-turbine failure at Corus,
as well as Centa offers bespoke transmission designs from Centa Transmissions,
and Turbine producer adopts NSK cost-saving programme from NSK UK.
