The foundry has emerged all the stronger for it and has landed some important new export contracts whereby more than 80% of the companys grey and ductile iron castings are exported.
In terms of CME Automotive, Ashlin explains that the company has secured the contract to supply castings for the South African division of Volkswagen.
Despite the fact that demand for catalysts has declined and volumes have shruck, Ashlin believes that the company is still viable and has potential for further growth.

Tangguh block in Papua holds a proven gas reserve of 14.4 trillion cubic feet. This block, operated by British oil giant BP, is scheduled for production start-up by the end of 2008.
However, Inpex had yet to submit its proposal on project development, estimated to cost 7 billion US dollars, reported major newspaper The Jakarta Post, citing officials with the Upstream Oil and Gas Regulator (BPMigas).
The Masela project is expected to involve the construction of a floating liquefied natural gas (LNG) processing terminal with a total capacity expected to reach 4 million tons per annum.

I could have told him that if Rayann would have phoned me and saved him about an hour of shovelling. So he continues to try and clear the line. Whak whak whak goes his electric snake and bang...the end breaks off inside the pipe. So, he heads back to town to get more help and I go to the shop and bring in my flexible magnet. Fortunately, I am able to retrive the broken end from inside the pipe. After lunch he brings a second plumber with him. They start feeding a new snake down the pipe and inform me after about half an hour they are 16 feet into the pipe...can be I tell them, the sink pipe is only 3 feet max from the sewer pipe..that does not make sense and the water is still not draining.

Plans had been discussed since the 1980s to renovate and rebuild the Fore River Bridge, a bascule that dated to 1936. Then, about seven years ago, engineers determined that it had deteriorated so much that it was beyond repair. As an interim solution, MassHighway erected the temporary bridge, a $60 million, four-lane span designed to last 15 years.
The towering structure - which, with its 10,000 panel pins and 60,000 structural bolts, has the look of a large Erector Set project - took about five years to complete, from design to finish. The New Jersey-based manufacturer, Acrow Corp., described the bridge as one of the heaviest and longest of its kind. It opened to traffic in late 2003.

CRP therefore decided to develop new materials for sintering rapid casting patterns, and partnered with DTM in 1998 to be the first to use rapid casting for hard to cast shapes such as F1 uprights and gearboxes, and alloys such as titanium. They say they were first to optimise a polystyrene material for laser sintered patterns, known as Castform.
That year, CRP also began to optimise the engineering process and the manufacturing process, studying titanium rapid casting, based on the combination of rapid prototyping (RP) technology, to manufacture the disposable pattern, and investment casting technology (lost wax casting) with titanium alloys.

Five Hamilton High School students are learning welding this last quarter of school at Keokuk Steel Castings. Two days a week, from 2:30 to 5:30 p.m. Tuesdays and Thursdays, the juniors and seniors are gearing up in protective clothing, donning welding helmets, face guards, respiratory masks and leather aprons to melt metal with a stick of fire.
Four Steel Castings welders, all volunteers, are instructing and overseeing the students as they work in five of the 24 welding booths at the Steel Castings plant on Main Street in Keokuk.

Lower speeds and a corresponding high torque can be implemented with a planetary gear from the maxon modular system. Brushless DC motors need the information of the actual rotor position for the electronic commutation of the three phases. With the available motor, the proven concept to separate the control magnet from the main magnet has been applied. Thus the Hall sensors of the electronic commutation are protected against interference of the magnet and the winding current. The significant characteristics of this brushless DC motor with the best magnet material available on the market today, Neodymium, are the small dimensions, the extremely wide speed range, the high dynamics and specifically the unsurpassed lifespan.

NBK, Inc. announced a new low profile, high precision, linear stage model LT190-EDLM. Manufactured from high strength aluminum, the table is driven by an ironless core linear motor with travel ranging from 150 mm to 500 mm. Total table height is only 50 mm. Positioning accuracy, repeatability and maximum speed depend on which one of three high precision encoders is included. Typical speed is 1 m/sec with acceleration of several Gs. The stage is designed so that two units may be mounted together directly without an additional interface plate creating a low profile XY configuration (see photo). Together with a rugged right angle bracket, a three axis XYZ arrangement is also available. Features of this new table include:
o preloaded large cross roller bearings for high stiffness and smooth motion

Protection is provided against both particle and moisture contamination, enabling the bearings to offer effective performance over long, virtually maintenance-free service lives. As the bearings do not require external seals in all but the most aggressive environments, installation is simplified considerably, thereby reducing downtime and costs.
The bearings are pre-lubricated prior to sealing, so there are no lubrication requirements in most cases for the life of the bearings, which lowers maintenance costs still further. Additionally, in being fully sealed, the bearings eliminate the risk of lubricant leakage that is associated with conventional open bearings, minimising their environmental impact.

An accompanying editorial describes an illustrative incident in which a patients brooch, worn on her blouse, inactivated her ICD for an extended period, until the blouse was removed and a magnet in the jewelry discovered. In the present study, small neodymium–iron–boron magnets had a high likelihood of causing pacemaker and ICD interference at distances up to 3 cm. The authors note that magnets larger than those tested are likely to be risky at greater distances. For ICD wearers in particular, magnetic interference could mean the devices failure to detect a life-threatening arrhythmia and to deliver life-saving therapy. Physicians should discuss with their patients who have pacemakers and ICDs the risks from increasingly common NdFeB magnets.

Sintered NdFeB magnets are hard and brittle. To protect the magnet from corrosion and to strengthen the brittle magnet material, it is highly recommended for the magnet to be coated.
NdFeB magnets allow small shapes and sizes and have multiple uses in science, engineering and industry. Various kinds of sintered NdFeB magnets in specific shapes and sizes such as blocks, cubes, cylinders, discs, spheres, rods, rings can be ordered.
