Cyclone cures cold run engine pollution
Article Abstract:
A small device fitted to an engine exhaust tail pipe could be away of reducing the emissions of fluids and particulates, when the engine and catalytic converters are cold. Grahame Henley, inventor of a small cyclone proposes that the cyclone should contain some kind of absorbing medium, either disposable or ceramic, in the hope that noxious substances would be burned away when it becomes hot.

Machine vibrations turned out with ease
Article Abstract:
The basic idea of adding tuned vibration absorbers is that it provides the advantages of cost effectiveness and allows machining to achieve new levels of precision. These absorbers are the secondary damper systems which, when attached to the machine remove the energy from the machine making the mass vibrate instead of the machine.

Servo motor slides multiply their reach
Article Abstract:
The developments of Quin include 'Qmanager' which synchronizes automated systems with up to 240 axes. The machine organizes, communicates and configures all drives and controls on the network from a single central programme, then monitors and interacts with them while the machine is running.
