‘Semiconductor Industry’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Q-Sys provides custom-designed motion systems from
Q-Sys, which we summarised at the time by saying "Q-Sys offers a complete design-and-build service for all types of precision motion and positioning systems. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release James Walker designs advanced seat material from
James Walker and Co: "Working closely with valve manufacturers, James Walker Devol has developed Devlon V-API as a superior seat material that would overcome the individual shortcomings of all the other material grades.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from National Instruments
- take a look at NI expands HIL simulation platform
which says: "National Instruments (NI) has announced the expansion of its hardware-in-the-loop (HIL) simulation platform, which includes numerous products to optimise embedded system validation. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Adaptaflex, Guide covers specification of rail conduit systems,
as well as Dassault Systemes releases latest PLM 2.0 platform from Dassault Systemes,
and Liquiphant accurately measures liquid levels from Endress+Hauser.
