A Manufacturingtalk guide

Start with the news release Kraussmaffei to show electric AX moulding machine from Krauss-Maffei (UK), which we summarised at the time by saying "The AX, Kraussmaffei's new all-electric injection moulding machine, will be in action in the UK on 30 June and 1 July as part of the company's European roadshow.". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Retractable roof uses FAG roller bearings from Schaeffler (UK): "More than 300 FAG spherical roller bearings from Schaeffler UK are supporting the retractable roof over the Centre Court at Wimbledon.".
 
In May 2009, we covered the news from MAG Industrial Automation Systems - take a look at Systems automate wind-turbine blade fabrication which says: "MAG is to introduce its Rapid Material Placement System (RMPS) and quick-cure moulding system for wind-turbine blades at the American Wind Energy Association's Windpower 2009 show.".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Aerotech, Aerotech introduces AGR worm-drive rotary stages, as well as Encoder profile spec in development for Sercos III from Sercos North America, and Micropro 1690NG offers wider working range from Shear-Form Machine Tools.
