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 Digital DC drives made for automation from
Gefran SIEI UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "A range of digital DC drives is designed to minimise user system requirements, with optional functions and dedicated application packages available for complex industrial automation
systems".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Safety products control packaging safety from
Pilz Automation Technology: "A range of safety system control products - from safety relaysto a multi function modular controller - are available for builders of packaging machinery".
In July 2007, we covered the news from Blackfast Chemicals
concerning its 'Blackfast LP' electrocoat lacquering process
- take a look at Electrocoat lacquer achieves major cost savings
which says: "Normally a packaging machine builder subcontracted out the black anodising of aluminium parts, but an electrocoat laquering process allowed the company to bring aluminium finishing 'in-house'".
Take a look also at the news release from Shrinkwrap Machinery, Shrinkwrap company launches side seal machine,
as well as Gold Sponsors offer Machine Vision evaluation from Firstsight Vision,
