‘Vacuum Casting’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Verderflex Dura pump ensures bubble-free printing from Verderflex, which we summarised at the time by saying "Peterson Packaging, a Danish printing company, has selected the Verderflex Dura peristaltic pump to gently handle water-based ink.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Birchwood sealants prevent rust and corrosion from Birchwood Casey: "Birchwood Casey offers a full line of eight different aqueous and solvent-based inhibitors and sealants to prevent rust and corrosion on all metal surfaces. ".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Minus K Technology - take a look at Minus K vibration isolators for space telescope which says: "Minus K Technology has been selected by ITT Space Systems to provide vibration isolators for the ground testing of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at the Johnson Space Center (JSC). ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Micromech, CNC router reduces time to market, as well as IDC offers in-house injection moulding service from Industrial Design Consultancy (IDC), and S series shaft motor has combined linear encoders from Micromech.
