and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Easy access to engineering adhesives from
Permabond, which we summarised at the time by saying "Users can now source engineering adhesives online via the Permabond website".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Marine composites meet luxury yacht standards from
Scott Bader Company: "The latest high technology marine composite products in the Scott Bader range have been specifically developed for high quality glass-fibre tooling and boat construction".
In July 2007, we covered the news from Henrob Direct
concerning its Self-pierce riveting
- take a look at Self-pierce riveting process preferred by big cats
which says: "Such is Jaguar's commitment to the Henrob riveting process that the structure and production tooling for the new XK were optimised to make best use of this joining method".
Take a look also at the news release from Intertronics, Structural adhesives create complex assemblies,
as well as Structural adhesives hold metal and plastic from Huntsman Advanced Materials,
