‘Training Programme’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
SKF units improve continuous-cast milling from
SKF UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Two SKF solutions have been developed to deliver benefits to continuous casting mills. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Preventing failures in centrifugal pumps from
Henkel Loctite Adhesives: "This guide has been developed to assist maintenance personnel who service industrial centrifugal pumps. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from SKS Engineering
- take a look at SKS to distribute XYZ machines tools in Scotland
which says: "XYZ Machine Tools has appointed SKS Engineering as its distributor in Scotland to support the full XYZ range throughout the region.".
Take a look also at the news release from SGS SA - Industrial Services, SGS inspects storage tanks at refinery,
as well as Softinway course covers turbomachinery design from Softinway,
and Emerson installs controls at Korean plants from Emerson Process Management.
