Breakthrough antistatic coating for hazardous areas

Breakthrough antistatic coating for hazardous areas

Intertec has launched a revolutionary advance in antistatic surface coating treatment for its GRP outdoor enclosures. Developed specially for Intertec by the chemical specialist BÜFA, the new nanotechnology-based coating also boosts protection against damage from ultraviolet radiation – helping to achieve extended maintenance-free lifecycles of field-based control and instrumentation equipment in processing industries such as oil, gas, chemicals and petrochemicals. Intertec's weathering tests in an environmental test chamber have demonstrated that the new coating can withstand extended exposure to very high UV levels, providing a superb new level of protection

The forces and moments of rotating wheels

The forces and moments of rotating wheels

The automotive industry uses computer aided design (CAD) and computer aided engineering (CAE) widely to reduce design and development time and costs whilst improving quality and durability of the end product. Almost every aspect of a new design, from manufacturing processes to dynamic performance, can be verified before any metal is cut. One area where this is not true is in the tyre performance arena where the ability to model tyre performance is far less well developed. Jaguar Land Rover is one company taking steps to close the gap by using the best available technology to generate the real world data essential for accurate tyre modelling.
