Power Generation

Controlling circuits during machine cycles is key to manufacturing processes in thousands of plants.

A line of application-specific hose and connectors for truck and bus exhaust-gas-recirculation (EGR) engines are designed to handle stress and airflow of extremely high engine compartment temperatures and increased pressures from large-capacity radiators.

Compact display terminals provide low-cost connectivity to control systems for machine operators.

SSV Series stream selector systems deliver a representative sample from multiple streams to a single analyzer.

Big trucks may soon be running on natural gas rather than diesel fuel thanks to high crude-oil prices.

Aircraft engine-maker Textron Lycoming, Williamsport Pa., is recalling crankshafts used in Robinson helicopters, late-model Cessna 182s, and some Commander 112s.

Collier Technologies Inc. (CTI) has formed a new company called City Engines Inc. to develop and market hydrogen/natural gas (HCNG) engines.

Highly flexible TOK couplings connect combustion engines to dynamometers for testing and evaluation.

With record-level fuel prices and EPA Tier-3 diesel-engine exhaust emission standards taking effect, off-road equipment buyers are putting unprecedented emphasis on the powerplants in their new machines.

Throttle controls on ships and tankers traditionally employ a relay signal to a device in the engine room that actually controls fuel flow and how fast the ship's engine turns.

Cam-Action Rotary Switches have continuous ratings ranging from 20 to 800 A at 600 V, with up to 12 positions and up to 24 poles.

PS1900 parallel-shaft gearmotors are available in 14 gear ratios from 5:1 to 320:1.

PS1900 parallel-shaft gearmotors are available in 14 gear ratios ranging from 5:5 to 320:1, with torque ratings to 125 lb-in.

Researchers at Southwest Research Institute (SwRI), together with an Asian automaker, have developed an automated manual transmission that merges the convenience of an automatic with the fuel and weight savings of a manual.

Southwest Research Institute is trying to develop a high-efficiency, durable gasoline engine for heavy-duty applications.
