An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Insertion probes monitor bioproduction process from Stratophase, which we summarised at the time by saying "Stratophase has collaborated with the Centre for Process Innovation (CPI) to develop an insertion probe variant of its Spectrosens system. ". 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 Heason Technology - take a look at Actuator system for sampling applications which says: "Heason Technology has launched a low-cost modular actuator range for pick-and-place and sample dispensing in life science and other analytical equipment applications. ".

Take a look also at the news release from Airchannel, Airchannel helps timber specialist save energy, as well as Martek releases compact onboard DC/DC converters from Martek Power, and Fluke offers trial promotion of Ti9 thermal imager from Fluke (UK).
