Ansys software helps Ferrari improve comfort from
Ansys, which we summarised at the time by saying "Italian car manufacturer Ferrari is using software from Ansys to optimise automobile design and performance.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Q-Sys provides custom-designed motion systems from
Q-Sys: "Q-Sys offers a complete design-and-build service for all types of precision motion and positioning systems. ".
In November 2009, we covered the news from ITT Interconnect Solutions
- take a look at ITT introduces packer feedthrough system
which says: "The BIW field-attachable packer feedthrough system launched by ITT Interconnect Solutions is designed to provide a faster method of passing power cables through packers.".
Take a look also at the news release from NVision, Mobilescan HD helps gun grip maker improve quality,
as well as Minus K vibration isolators for space telescope from Minus K Technology,
and CNC router reduces time to market from Micromech.
