‘Vibration Testing’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release 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 Jena Tec offers ballscrew repair discount from Jena Rotary Technology: "Jena Tec can repair ballscrews of any make, type or configuration, with whichever type of ballscrew transfer system.".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Endevco - take a look at Pressure transducers measure up to 20,000psig which says: "Endevco has announced the 8511A series, a range of piezoresistive gauge pressure transducers designed for maximum reliability in extreme measurement environments. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Birchwood Casey, Birchwood sealants prevent rust and corrosion, as well as NI expands HIL simulation platform from National Instruments, and SGS offers acoustic emission testing package from SGS SA - Industrial Services.
