‘Tension Measurement’
A Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Micro-Epsilon launches Process Imager from
Micro-Epsilon UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Micro-Epsilon PI (Process Imager) is an inline radiometric thermal imaging device that provides temperature images and profiles of a target area. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Analogue pressure gauge has high accuracy from
Calibration Dynamics: "The Wika CPG1000 combines an analogue pressure gauge with the accuracy expected when using a digital gauge. ".
In November 2008, we covered the news from QuickSilver Controls
- take a look at Quicksilver releases application note
which says: "Quicksilver's ability to handle large inertial loads (large inertial mismatch) allows the company to direct drive large product reels. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Festo, Festo releases fieldbus-controlled valve regulator,
as well as Tritex develops ultrasonic thickness gauges from Tritex NDT,
and Keronite comes to the surface from Keronite.
