‘Vacuum Casting’
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 Micromech offers complete linear motion solution from
Micromech: "Micromech's Promech linear actuators from Parker are for OEM instrument manufacturers looking to speed time to market and reduce the overall installed cost for linear motion axes. ".
In October 2009, we covered the news from Barden Corporation
- take a look at Barden provides super-precision bearings
which says: "The Barden Corporation offers custom-designed, super-precision bearings for use in a wide variety of high-performance air handling systems. ".
Take a look also at the news release from NSK UK, NSK bearings save costs for carbon-fibre producer,
as well as Ross introduces poppet valves and manifolds from Ross Controls,
and Poppet valves suit full-flow applications from Ross Controls.
