‘Surface Coating’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Taegutec replaces CT5000 grade with Cermet CT7000 from TaeguTec UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Taegutec has brought out the Cermet CT7000 grade for steel-machining applications at high cutting speeds. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Objet to exhibit rapid prototyping solution at TCT from Objet Geometries Europe: "Objet Geometries will exhibit its latest rapid prototyping solution, the Connex350, at TCT 2009.".

In November 2009, we covered the news from Victrex - take a look at Talisman chooses Aptiv film for CMOS / CCD mask which says: "Talisman Industrial Tape has selected Victrex Aptiv film for use on CMOS / CCD mask for SMT soldering for electronics and semiconductor industries.".

Take a look also at the news release from NEi Software, NEi adds explicit dynamics to simulation software, as well as Kabelschlepp cable carriers reduce ESD risk from Kabelschlepp Metool, and Proficiency Collaboration Gateway 8.1 released from TranscenData Europe.
