4). LVDTs vital for
'poke-yoke' assembly quality.
RDP Electronics Ltd has recently assisted
Southampton-based B.K. Automation in the
design of a two-station assembly and proofing
machine for a client in the automotive industry.
The machine produces five versions of high-pressure oil pipe
assembly used in turbochargers and relies on highly accurate
measurements to achieve what the Japanese refer to as
'Poke-Yoke' or to 'avoid inadvertent mistakes'.

5). CORUS cut the cost
of coal processing.
The latest vibration monitoring technology is playing a vital
role
in helping Corus Strip Products UK (CSP UK) cut long term
operating costs, increase uptime and improve safety at its
granulated coal processing plant in Port Talbot, South Wales.
The processing plant is used to prepare coal for injection into
blast furnaces
for iron production and is based around a large coal impacting
(crushing)
system, which is located in a special purpose building. These
crushers
are constructed from two counter-rotating cages, located one
within the
other, and incorporating circumferential striking plates (hammers).
The
cages each weigh approximately 0.75 tonnes and are suspended
from
two overhung shafts, driven via pulleys from electric motors.
==================================================
6). Raising the standard.
Thames Side-Maywood is now able to supply the
Series 350 load cell for industrial weighing.
This cost effective, OIML C3 approved shear beam load cell
supersedes the company's successful T62 and T63 load cells.
It features an industry standard configuration and is available
in a comprehensive range of capacities, from 300kg to 5000kg.
In addition to the standard capacities of 500kg, 1000kg, 2000kg
and 5000kg, the Series 350 is available in intermediate capacities
of 300kg, 750kg, 1500kg and 3000kg. This provides a wide
choice for many different weighing applications, including tank
and vessel weighing, bag filling machines and conveyors. The
OIML C3 approval also makes it suitable for use with platform
scales, for sale by weight
