The Schaeffler Group has launched a new range of synchronous linear motors that offer peak loads of 13,000N and deadweight of 45kg, ideal for use on large machining centres.

The Schaeffler Group has now extended its range of IDAM-branded direct drives technology with the launch of a new range of synchronous linear motors that offer peak forces of up to 13,000N and which achieve extreme guidance accuracies. 

Where process applications require control valves which are able to withstand the effects of highly corrosive media Badger RC250 barstock valves are the ideal choice.

The Badger range of valves is available in the UK through liquids handling specialists PUMP ENGINEERING, and includes a wide range of options, such as the RC250 model.The valves are available in a range of materials including, stainless steel, Hastelloy, Monel and titanium and will handle flows from 100 lit/hour up to 8000 lit/hour, at pressures up to 9 Bar. RC250 valves feature; Linear or equal % trims,

AMOT solved a problem for engine manufacturer MTU Friedrichshafen by answering the German company

A special peristaltic pump, designed and manufactured by Verder Autoclude is an important component in a haemodynamic monitoring system from the LiDCO Group.  This purpose designed, portable pump has unique features including single handed occlusion release.Monitoring key cardiovascular parameters is of critical importance to patient outcome.

In tandem with blood pressure and oxygen delivery, cardiac output is one of these vital indicators.  It is the volume of blood pumped through the heart per minute and has been a difficult parameter to measure.  Prior to the LiDCO system the cardiac output was usually determined with a special haemodynamic monitoring device in the form of a long catheter which is introduced into an artery in the neck, chest or groin and advanced through the heart to the pulmonary artery.

Designed for underwater tension measurement applications, for high humidity conditions and for applications in which occasional submersion due to flooding is likely, a range of miniature, compact, low profile load cells is now available, which can be customised to suit specific applications.

The DDEN Series of load cells from Applied Measurements Ltd measure tensile or compressive forces in underwater locations to a depth of up to 10 metres, although the unit can be customised to operate in even greater depths. The unit is unique in its compactness over a wide capacity range. Even at the top end of the capacity rating of 50kN, the unit dimensions do not change
