Quality Drive Components
Ensure Long Term Reliability In
Automotive Assembly
Industrial gas turbines are increasing
in size. As a result of this, repair
facilities that overhaul and repair
these machines must keep pace.
There are few more demanding
production environments than on
automotive assembly lines.

ECS Awarded Refurbishment
Contract For Major Anglian
Pumping Station
After a nine-year construction
period, the new, third channel of the
Panama Canal opened in June 2016,
eliminating a bottleneck for global

Following a review of energy usage
the Environment Agency has
identified a number of strategic
water pumping stations where
significant improvements can be
made.
High Performance Electric
Actuators
Scraper Bridges Installed Quickly
And Safely At London Tideway
The DA Series of electromechanical
linear actuators, available in the
UK through INMOCO is designed
around an integrated motor and
roller screw, a compact configuration
that provides excellent performance.
A&J Fabtech has been commended
for developing a new safer, quicker
and lower cost method of installing
rotating full-bridge suction lift
scrapers, a procedure it used when
working on Thames Water’s London
Tideway Improvement scheme.
