‘Rotary Table’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Aaxeon introduces media converter rack from
Aaxeon Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Aaxeon has announced the release of its FCU-RACK16S 16-slot lite universal media converter rack. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Solidworks CAD software used in blind car from
SolidWorks Corporation: "Solidworks 3D CAD software is helping a team of Virginia Tech students with a project hoped to enable blind drivers see with their hands and ears. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Micromech
- take a look at CNC router reduces time to market
which says: "A manufacturer of personal care products has saved money by switching to a low-cost computerised numerical control (CNC) router that can produce point of purchase displays internally.".
Take a look also at the news release from EMS, Viscotec devises drive solution for dosage units,
as well as NIST installs 3D scanning system from Laser Design from Laser Design,
and Renishaw system checks rotary-axis alignment from Renishaw.
