‘Ultrasonics’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
Micropilot radar offers overfill protection from
Endress+Hauser, which we summarised at the time by saying "Endress+Hauser's Micropilot M FMR244 radar offers overfill protection in liquids and solids applications across the food and beverage, chemical, primaries and water industries. ".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Mollart extends subcontract service from
Mollart: "The specialised development of precision small deep-hole machining techniques has led Mollart Engineering to expand its subcontractor machining operations. ".
In August 2008, we covered the news from Able Instruments and Controls
- take a look at Offshore flowmeter takes to the air
which says: "Noninvasive, ultrasonics based, prototype secondary fuel flow measuring system for aerial use augments existing fuel indication displays in aircraft.".
Take a look also at the news release from Phoenix Inspection Systems, Anniversary sees move to larger premises,
as well as Scanner tests weld quality from Phoenix Inspection Systems,
and Analyser eases alloy verification from Niton UK.
