‘Torque Measurement’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Micro stepper motors bring pictures into focus from
EMS, which we summarised at the time by saying "Electro Mechanical Systems has supplied Precistep micro-stepper motors to Life Optics to allow it to develop a compact, reliable and light-weight head-mounted microscope.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Insertion probes monitor bioproduction process from
Stratophase: "Stratophase has collaborated with the Centre for Process Innovation (CPI) to develop an insertion probe variant of its Spectrosens system. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Sherborne Sensors
- take a look at Sherborne announces MEMS inclinometers
which says: "Sherborne Sensors has announced the launch of the T700 series, a high-precision range of compact, DC-operated solid-state MEMS inclinometers. ".
Take a look also at the news release from Laser Design, Laser Design system checks injection mould tooling,
as well as Actuator system for sampling applications from Heason Technology,
and Resources company selects Able gas flowmeter from Able Instruments and Controls.
