Maplesoft™ today announced a partnership with Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division, and a leading global provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software and services. Maple™, the technical computing software from Maplesoft, supplies important analysis capabilities to CAD systems, giving users of NX™ software, the digital product development solution from Siemens PLM Software, the ability to use the computational power of Maple to analyze and optimize designs.
REDEX-ANDANTEX stands out with a complete range of spindle drive gearboxes designed for the highest-performance machine-tools, but also with outstanding torque transmission capacity. The new RAM High Torque has been designed for full in-line integration inside the ram between the motor and the spindle. This allows the electronic sensors to be located outside the gearbox, while simplifying maintenance operations.
After the West Coast, South Wales and Thames link projects with installations in Mill Hill and Backfriars, England, Corus Rail has just installed its first modular platform system in France, in the Paris suburb of Mitry Claye. With more than 50 modular platforms in operation across Europe, Corus has become a major player in the market. The main advantage of the Corus system is that its design allows the majority of the installation work (including foundation construction) to be done behind a safety fence and away from operating railway. This means that the railway does not need to close during the majority of the work, resulting in obvious cost savings due to a lack of disruption to train service.
The ARO Fluid Technologies business of Ingersoll Rand expand its ARO EXP Series portfolio of diaphragm pumps with a three-inch ported 2:1 High Pressure pump. Available in Stainless Steel, the PH30F is the ultimate solution for applications that require the transfer of viscous or high-solids fluids at pressures exceeding 6.9 bar. Ideal applications include filter press water removal, ceramic slurry injection, and resin transfer.
SOURIAU announces the availability of hermetically sealed connectors with aluminium and titanium bodies and copper alloy contacts, using a unique ceramic-to –metal sealing process developed by its subsidiary Pacific Aerospace & Electronics (PA&E). SOURIAU thus enhances its offer by providing a very wide range of lightweight hermetically sealed circular connectors, with weight savings of up to 60%, and including the only hermetically sealed optical fiber connector in the world. This connector line is primarily designed for onboard aeronautical and space applications.
Manufactured in Europe, the new range of Ingersoll Rand desiccant dryers includes two main configurations, heatless and with heated blowers. The range benefits from the accumulated experience of the over 3000 units already operating in other regions of the world. In the heated blower version, the a Energy Management System(EMS) is included as a standard features, which can reduce operating costs by 20,000 euros over three years. Compared to other market solutions, it is very competitively priced, costing the same with EMS as others which do not include EMS. Desiccant dryers are dedicated to medium and heavy industry and the automotive, pharmaceutical, chemical and oil and gas industries among others.
KRPX is the new version of REDEX ANDANTEX rack & pinion high-tech planetary reducers. KRPX is a cost effective, easy to implement and high performing solution for moving column and gantry machine types. Made of two planetary reducers, KRPX allows perfect mounting on both sides of the machine frame. They are coupled with an electrical preload system enabling true zero backlash. This planetary reduction gear for rack and pinion applications offers exceptional rigidity characteristics, in particular through the one-piece output pinion technology invented by REDEX-ANDANTEX. It provides unrivalled radial rigidity (accounting for up to 60% of overall rigidity).
Faiveley Transport Australia Ltd has secured the order for the supply of Brake Control, Bogie Brake and Air Generation equipment for the third phase of the Outer Suburban Car project.
