We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Development Time",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Manufacturingtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Tube bending software costs forming requirements from
Forming Technologies, which we summarised at the time by saying "Catia tube bending analysis module produces accurate thickness distribution, accurate tube length for costing and set-up, and will automatically determines hot or cold forming process
requirements".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Synthetic vanishing oils suit high speed pressing from
John Neale: "Synthetic vanishing oils for presses operating at up to 2000 strokes/min make operation clean and stop the formation of gumming, varnishing or sticky deposits".
In January 2008, we covered the news from Control Techniques
concerning its Digitax ST range servo drives
- take a look at Servo drives are intelligent, compact, dynamic
which says: "For the general machinery market, a range of servo drives is offering unprecedented connectivity, feedback options, intelligence and functionality".
Take a look also at the news release from Murata Electronics (UK), RF measurement facility cuts development time,
as well as Forming software designs for progressive dies from Forming Technologies,
and Forming feasibility and costing made in Catia from Forming Technologies.
