The Importance of Sensor
Triggering in Production and
Process Automation
When measuring the position of
moving targets in production and
process automation environments,
it is important to understand
the different methods of sensor
triggering, their impact on
measurement cycle times and
the benefits they can offer over
continuous measurement.
Building The Safety Case
The fundamental aim of Professor
Bisbys’ research is to be able to model
fire in buildings, and to be able to
derive and validate computer models
which can be applied to the structural
and fire safety design of buildings.
The Big Clean-Up
Links with the Royal Academy of
Engineering feed valuable practical
information into the NDA’s task
of decommissioning the UK’s civil
nuclear sites.
High Voltage Coils –
Making Quality Cost Effective
For industries operating and
maintaining high voltage (HV) motors
and generators, a cost effective,
timely and planned repair schedule is
crucial to maintaining productivity.
Maintaining Archimedes
Screw Pumps
The enduring simplicity of the
Archimedes screw pump continues
to make it one of the most efficient
pumping methods over short
distances, but this efficiency should
not be taken for granted.
Smaller, Faster, Hotter:
Optimisation of Bearings for
Challenging Applications
Adding new design features or
applying special techniques and
coatings to bearing components can
optimise the performance of bearings
for challenging applications.
