The Greening of the Switch: Using LCD and OLED Programmable Switches on Mobile Devices
|
| Company: | NKK Switches |
| All the talk about “going green” over the past few years has had a huge affect on how design engineers develop new products. Beginning in the early part of this century with the RoHS directive, green initiatives have impacted nearly every aspect of designs – particularly in electronics and industrial applications. In many cases, going green will save money in the long run. For example, a compact florescent light bulb can save over US $30 in electricity costs over the lamp's life time compared to an incandescent lamp and save 2,000 times its own weight in greenhouse gases. |

How to Reduce Water Consumption in Cleaning, Cooling and Moisturizing Operations
|
| Company: | Spraying Systems Co |
| In the U.S., industry uses 45% of freshwater annually.
The heaviest users of water include the food, chemical,
petrochemical, primary metal and paper industries.
In the last ten years, water costs have more than doubled
in some areas causing all manufacturers and processors
to take a hard look at water costs. When waste water
disposal costs are included, it is a significant expense.
The average cost per 1000 gallons (3,785.4 liters) is
approximately $7.00 USD, including sewer charges. |

Marking and Vision System Helps Verify the Provenance of NASCAR’s New Spec Motor
|
| Company: | Cognex Corp. |
| The North American Stock Car Racing (NASCAR) has adopted a new spec engine for its Camping World East and West series that uses many off-the-shelf parts to provide performance and durability at only about one-half the cost of custom-built engines. Each of the major parts in the new motor has a 2D barcode that can be read in seconds by a handheld scanner, greatly reducing the inspection time at the track. The marks need to be positioned in very specific, often difficult-to-mark locations on the parts so they can be inspected easily before and after the race to prevent the use of illegal parts that would increase the power of the engine. Wegner Motorsports, which provides spec kits and assembled engines, overcame this challenge with the Columbia Marking Tools 3 in 1 Marking System. |

Using Advanced Radar Technology for Reliable Vehicle Detection
|
| Company: | Banner Engineering Corp |
| In the summer of 1997 the Dutch government began construction on a double-track freight railway in an effort to increase the efficiency of transporting goods between European nations. Dubbed the Betuwe Route, the track was developed to connect Rotterdam, Netherlands to Germany. The Betuwe Route’s underground
design would eliminate the need for border stops, avoid the passenger lines that consume most of the Netherlands’ rail system, and operate without disturbing much of the region’s landscape. |
