Mixing tradition with the latest technology
Article Abstract:
Vacuum cleaner giant Dyson prefers to use traditional hands-on approach to rapid product development rather than simply relying alone on numerical software. Dyson believes that many of its discoveries come from actually touching and feeling physical working prototypes even though the computers are great for optimizing and improving designs with even concept designs often sketched by hand on paper.

Mixing it with the best
Article Abstract:
Kettering based Failsafe Metering developed a unique meter-mixing dispensing technology 'Pulsmeter' for single and two-part reactive chemicals including adhesives, which assures the correct mix ratio before reaching the point of end product. The various aspects and attributes such as complete design, quality, maintenance, cost and usefulness as well as flexibility of the system are described.

Unique coupling offers best of both worlds
Article Abstract:
UK-based couplings manufacturer Huco has developed 'Torq-Link', a unique design of coupling that combines the torsional stiffness of a straight beam coupling with the lateral flexibility of its helical counterpart. Huco is also preparing a brand new guide for design engineers to help them select the correct coupling for their application.
