“We’ve seen a demand in the industry from customers to increase uptime with a constant focus on efficiency, allowing a smoother running operation,” said Randhir Shetty, product manager at Flow International Corp. (Kent, WA). “For our customers, increased uptime means a boost in productivity.”

The exit signs are also often powered by NiMH type batteries. “Nothing better” is, wrong, I would say “nothing cheaper”. A LiFePO4 IS better, it is just much more expensive, my 12V 100Ah LiFePO4 cost about €750,- , you can convert to US$ yourself. It is even spec’d for 1000A for 5 to 10s. The good thing is: You get 1000cycles 100% depth of discharge (or 3000 with 80%). Compare this to lead acid, where you should not go below 50% discharge, if you want to get a decent amount of cycles, I think, if you want more than 100 or 200. There are LiFePO4 replacement batteries for car batteries, but most time they have much less capacity than the lead acid counterpart they replace, probably just because they are much more discharge tolerant. What I am not sure is, how they react to automotive temperatures. My LiFePO4 battery wants to be charged only between 0°C and 45°C
Gotta love the fear of the unkown / NIMBY. They will buy a mircowave oven and get an x-ray but they won’t have a radio wave tower constructed.
Jet Edge programs include “free scheduled training to our end-users at our Minnesota headquarters,” they said. “The course has standard content for service optimization, but also carves out time for specific training on the attendee’s equipment configuration and operating methods.”
The waterjet maker also offers its waterjet system as part of what it calls Built for Business Integrated Cutting Solutions. Dumas said Hypertherm’s ProNest nesting software, a computer numeric controller and HyPrecision waterjet “work together to automatically apply the right cutting parameters and adjust things like the feed rate, abrasive flow rate, pump pressure and more.”
“There was a point early in my career, probably in the mid-’90s, when there were more people of color at regional newspapers covering the fashion beat. What’s interesting is that, in general, newspapers have made more of a concerted effort to bring diversity into newsrooms because it is seen as something that is important to ensuring that all communities and stories have a voice. As those regional newspapers began to have all sorts of financial issues, cuts were made, so there were no longer people assigned to the fashion beat and the level of diversity decreased substantially.”—Robin Givhan, fashion critic, Washington Post

Key features include the ability to stack ten profiles of up to 6.5 metres in length, automatic cutting in all angles between 30° and 150°with accuracy of 0.1°, the ability to open drain slot routing, drilling and milling at variable angles, the ability to work with data from different window production software packages, optimisation ensures minimum wastage and the reassurance of a safe production facility thanks to the three-dimensional collision and error control system.
“Class is a major factor in a person of color’s career trajectory. I’ve been so poorly paid that I’ve had to say, “Look, I cannot live like this.” I don’t have parents paying all my bills. In fashion, there’s always this expectation and assumption of privilege.”—Alexander-Julian Gibbson, editor
The wind tunnel’s maximum wind velocity is 108kph, a bit high for most bike testing. But the facility has also been used to test equipment in other sports such as skiing, bobsleigh and speed skating. And other cycling disciplines such as MTB racing and cyclocross are now taking an interest in aerodynamics too.
Further investigation found one of the inner pits contained approximately 1000 lemons that were connected in a demonic looking array. The temple of Hades is currently under investigation.
