Now fitting Agri Disc Hub units from NSK to the company´s disc harrows, is Galucho, an agricultural machinery manufacturer in Portugal and Spain.The move comes after two years of working together and testing the product on 700 hectares of land near Seville, a successful process that means NSK is now fully approved to assemble its Agri Disc Hub units on the disc harrows manufactured by Galucho machinery.

MIT engineers have genetically reprogrammed a strain of yeast so that it converts sugars to fats much more efficiently, an advance that could make possible the renewable production of high-energy fuels such as diesel.The researchers, led by Gregory Stephanopoulos, the Willard Henry Dow Professor of Chemical Engineering and Biotechnology at MIT, modified the metabolic pathways of yeast that naturally produce large quantities of lipids, to make the...

A UW–Madison Microbiome Initiative comes with $1 million in grant funding administered by the vice chancellor for research and graduate education to support interdisciplinary research, infrastructure, and research community enhancements related to the microbiome.“Microbiome science has the potential to revolutionise areas such as health care, agriculture, biomanufacturing, environmental management, and more,” says Marsha Mailick...

ETHZurich can once again look back on a successful year of spin-offs: as in 2015, a total of 25 new companies were incorporated in 2016. This is thus the tenth time in a row that over 20 spin-offs have been founded at ETH in a single year – a unique achievement in Switzerland’s higher education landscape. Furthermore, ten of the newly founded ETH spin-offs were created through the Pioneer Fellowship programme.

Diminishing at a vast rate, the lack of fossil fuels are encouraging engineers to work hard to perfect alternative power transmission.While fully electric systems still have many flaws, in recent year’s hybrid designs have surged in popularity: they are now found in trains, boats, agricultural equipment and even the latest generation hyper-cars.

While the options for short‑range indoor wireless connectivity for industrial applications have traditionally been many and varied, that hasn’t been the case for cellular, especially at the ultra‑low power levels required for IoT.

There are individual requirements for each manufacturing industry, but they all use threaded fasteners – nuts, bolts, screws and washers.Challenge Europe addresses these varying applications with the experience and technical expertise which can save manufacturers’ time, money and concerns about quality.

FLIR Systems announced the launch of five thermal imaging cameras in the first week of January, including two new third generation FLIR ONE thermal camera attachments for smartphones, two new dual sensor thermal cameras for drones, and a ruggedised compact thermal camera for home and building inspectors.
