High Performance SPACEA Bearings Saves Carbon Fibre Producer
NSK’s SPACEA range of bearings for special environments has solved a problem of premature failures of stainless steel bearings used in the manufacture of carbon graphite and composite materials for aerospace applications. Operating in a solution of Ammonium Bicarbonate, the stainless steel bearings were lasting around six weeks; however, the Spacea replacements have been operating for 8-months with no problems, providing savings for the manufac...
Twiflex Disc Brakes Meet the needs of Overland Coal Conveyors
When coal processing plants are an appreciable distance from the mine, how best to transport the coal from one to the other is a key consideration. It is not unusual for the processing plant to be tens of miles away, which might at first glance suggest delivery by truck. But overland conveyors can often provide a far more economical solution, providing cost reductions in the order of 20-40% or more.
Interchangeable Front-end Tooling Economises On Back Ends
New from Japanese tooling manufacturer, BIG Daishowa, is a system that allows interchangeable front ends to be screwed into back ends in its FullCut milling cutter range. Users of the so-called Contact Grip tooling can therefore economise on the number of BBT, HSK or Capto toolholders they need to buy from UK agent, NCMT.

Count On Tools Inc., introduces its new series of custom SMT pick-and-place nozzles for CREE® LED components. This new series is manufacturer-approved, based on CREE Inc.’s strict requirements and specifications.
NASA’s Anti-Counterfeiting Measures Fall Short of Validating Parts Authenticity
While battling counterfeiters is nothing new for famous jewelry makers and popular video game companies, fake components have become a significant challenge for high-end electronic manufacturers, directly impacting NASA and the U.S. Department of Defense. At this year’s NASA Project Management Challenge, presenters documented how counterfeit parts have impacted NASA’s and the U.S. military’s products and programs to the tune of higher proje...
P-80® Recommended for rotary shaft seals
P-80® lubricants are unique assembly aids formulated to provide temporary lubrication making rubber easy to install, remove, or manipulate. P-80 lubricants provide a high degree of lubricity when wet, but because they do not contain silicone or other persistent ingredients, once dry the slipping action goes away-making it a perfect lubricant for rotary shaft seals.

Longwatch Introduces XLP Low Power Video Surveillance System for Remote Areas
Originally developed for a major oil and gas company to monitor remote wells in North America, the Longwatch XLP Low Power Video Surveillance System is powered by solar cells and batteries. The system hibernates in a low-power standby mode until an external sensor, such as a motion detector or intrusion alarm, or a command from the central control room sends it a signal to wake up. The system immediately records a short “video alarm clip,” tr...
