Automated dual reduction index furnace
06 April, 2009 | Modutemp Pty Ltd
Modutemp has combined several previously separate apparatuses to create a comprehensive, automated dual reduction index furnace. This furnace provides qualitative analysis of iron ore samples for reducibility. Chemists will now have the ability to extrapolate precise weight variations as a function of temperature, when measuring the percentage of reduction (loss of oxygen) in a parcel of ore.
Automated cell counter
06 April, 2009 | Life Technologies
The Countess Automated Cell Counter offers easy and accurate cell counting and viability counts. It produces data on cell cultures in 30 s.
Flat motors
06 April, 2009 | maxon motor Australia Pty Ltd
The maxon motor range of brushless DC motors with integrated electronics features established drives EC 20 flat, EC 32 flat and EC 45 flat, but now they have in-built speed controllers, yet are almost the same size. The motors available as standard are the 2- and 5-wire versions, with an operating range of 2-50 W. The drives are suitable for use where there is minimal installation space, when long service life and constant speed are required at the same time as simple control operations.
