articleIn stainless steel production, delivering the perfect specification in every batch requires advanced chemical analysis throughout the process, but taking representative samples in real time is a significant engineering challenge, as Roger Brown of Thyson Technology explains.
productSandvik Materials Technology has supplied Sandvik Sanicro 28 composite tubes to a eucalyptus pulp mill in Uruguay, helping to avoid loss of production time and reducing costs for the customer.
productCleaner steels are opening up new design opportunities and extending service life for high performance parts, according to Ovako.
productBent wire components from William Hughes are helping a passenger car manufacturer introduce a high technology version of inflatable bladder seats that can be controlled with air pressure. Used to enhance comfort and provide a massage for passengers in its range of luxury cars, the air system is located in the seat back and features a built-in pump, so small air pockets can be inflated or deflated to suit the needs of the individual.
productThe need to boost output without sacrificing safety is ever-present across industry. In the big scheme of things, your choice of hydraulic and instrumentation tubing might not seem critical, but it does make a difference in eliminating risks, according to James Doughty Sandvik’s sales manager – MENA region for Tube, Core and Standard Products.

productThe new PEM VariMount fastening system (Type VM) from PennEngineering uses self-clinching technology paired with a round steel or stainless steel base plate to offer a clean and ready-made assembly for mounting into any rigid material or panel, including composites, plastics, and metals.
productDieffenbacher will be exhibiting developments relating to the pressing of fiber-reinforced plastic components at Composites Europe 2015. These innovations are said to enable fully automated sequences, shorter cycle times and more efficient manufacturing processes.
productTraditionally, solid bar is the material of choice when it comes to machining components. However, when a central bore is being machined Sandvik argues that by selecting near-net-shape, machine optimised hollow bar machine shops could significantly increase output.
productCleaner steels by Ovako are opening up new design opportunities and extending service life for high performance parts, a message the company will be promoting on its stand at Subcon 2015.
