As engineering plastics replace metals in many applications, engineers are required to come to grips with the different performance parameters to ensure they specify the right thermoplastic material for the application.
The Italian steel producer Arvedi and Siemens have joined forces to usher in a new era in steel production. Liquid steel can now be processed in a single production step from casting and rolling through to coiling of the finished metal sheet This first "endless strip production" (ESP) facility has now started operating in Cremona, Italy, and is set to produce over two million metric tons of steel per year.

Traditional “analog” thermostat temperature-control systems for vehicles will soon be a technology of the past if inventor Tom Hollis has his way. Switching to digital can manage critical fluid systems in a way that significantly improves fuel economy, reduces emissions and engine driveline wear to help extend the life of fluids critical in the operation of engine components.
