we featured the news release Ultrasonics cleans up wood saw blades from
Guyson International: "Industrial ultrasonic tanks provide fast and effective cleaning for all kinds of wood saw blades, hoggers, profile cutting tools, routers, and drills".
In November 2007, we covered the news from Vapormatt
concerning its Vapormatt wet blast machine
- take a look at Wet blast machine identifies surface defects
which says: "A wet blast machine in a dedicated surface cleaning and preparation cell enables surface imperfections or cracks to be identified quickly and efficiently".
Take a look also at the news release from Roschiwal + Partner Ingenieur, Machining centres - keep the tool shanks clean,
as well as Turned parts company grows by one-third from Qualiturn Products,
and Surface preparation specialist makes appointments from Wheelabrator Group.
