Minimising drive failure to maximise productivity

Minimising drive failure to maximise productivity

Drive failure can have a serious impact on productivity levels. Whether it is moving a pharmaceutical line conveyor belt, a quarry jaw crusher, or keeping an operating theatre cool, drives are a small yet essential part of the production process. When it comes to smooth, cost-effective operation, it’s important to get the basics right.

Designing for durability: Why circularity is key to the industrial equipment of the future

Designing for durability: Why circularity is key to the industrial equipment of the future

Circularity is no longer a niche concept in industrial engineering. It's a widely accepted necessity. Without clear guidance, industries risk buckling under the pressures of global population growth, climate change, and resource scarcity. This is where circularity comes in, offering both environmental and economic returns. It's a shift from “take, make, dispose” to designing products for durability and efficiency.

Academic projects designed for the real world

Academic projects designed for the real world

Academic engineering projects not only help create the design minds of tomorrow, but the resulting creations often achieve innovation in their own right. The University of Bath’s Mechanical Engineering Department fosters this spirit, partnering with supporters from industry to innovate for the real world.

Renishaw’s optical encoders selected for 'unique' linear motor

Renishaw’s optical encoders selected for 'unique' linear motor

Constant velocity control is essential for many advanced industrial processes, but traditional motor designs give rise to cogging forces which generate ripples in the motor velocity. KOVERY has designed a series of advanced linear motors, with integrated Renishaw encoders, that solve this problem.
