‘Strain Gauges’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Pam-Comfort helps Renault design new seat from ESI Group, which we summarised at the time by saying "Renault has used ESI's Pam-Comfort system for the preliminary design of a new seat.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Igus optical-fibre cable suits all bus systems from Igus UK: "Igus has developed an optical-fibre cable, Chainflex CFLG.2LB, which is suitable for all bus systems. ".
 
In October 2009, we covered the news from Schaeffler (UK) - take a look at Guide advises on mounting and dismounting bearings which says: "Schaeffler UK has published a technical guide entitled 'Mounting and Dismounting of Rolling Bearings'.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Vishay Micro-Measurements, Vishay provides web tension system for pilot plant, as well as Stabilizr facilitates accurate pressure readings from Winters Instruments, and Software predicts fatigue life from strain data from Safe Technology.
