Geothermal systems are becoming an increasingly important source of clean and, above all, baseload-capable energy. But the wells, which can be several thousand meters deep, are risky, and things can sometimes go wrong. Fraunhofer scientists have now developed an innovative tool that enables additional branches to be drilled off of the main well. This decreases the risk of dry boreholes and improves the output.
NSK has signed a contract with the electricity provider of its two UK manufacturing facilities in Newark (industrial bearings and linear guides) and Peterlee (automotive bearings) that ensures the supply of ‘green electricity’ generated from wind power. In other words, the provider confirms that it is producing green electricity from renewable sources to match the consumption demands of NSK’s UK-based plants.
European Space Agency (ESA) will provide launch services on an Arianespace Ariane 5 rocket from Europe’s Spaceport in Kourou, French Guiana. IR HiRel, an Infineon Technologies AG (FSE: IFX / OTCQX: IFNNY) company, supplied mission-critical radiation-hardened (rad hard) components for JWST. The company previously provided rad hard power electronics for NASA’s first flagship space observatory, the Hubble Space Telescope, launched in 1990.
International technology group ANDRITZ has successfully improved performance of the pulp mill at Mondi Frantschach by implementing new advanced process controls.
Innovation, sustainability and, naturally, unforgettable design. This was the magic combination that led FPT Industrial’s Red Horizon, a marine integrated electronic control and monitoring system, to be named Gold Winner of the 2021 edition of the New York Product Design Awards. Red Horizon was awarded in the Watercraft Category for successfully consolidating technology, performance, power and design in a beautiful zero-emission powerboat concept.
A French sawmill has reduced its overhead costs while decreasing downtime and maintenance hours by upgrading its roller chain. The sawmill conveyor’s standard chain, which had a lifetime of just six months, has now been replaced by a Tsubaki Titan Chain. Designed for heavy duty applications and use in adverse conditions, the Tsubaki chain is set to lower Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).
