Nuremberg/Germany (Leoni, 15 May 2012) – Leoni, provider of cables and cable systems to the automotive sector and other industries, has made a successful start into 2012: the Company increased its consolidated sales by about 6 percent year on year in the first three months, to the new quarterly high of EUR 969.1 million (previous year: EUR 910.7 million). The automotive and capital goods industries as well as, from a regional perspective, the BRIC countries were again key growth drivers. Consolidation for the first time of the South Korean wiring systems manufacturer Daekyeung, taken over in full at the beginning of January 2012, added EUR 27.4 million to the total amount of business.
The Fraunhofer Institute for Laser Technology ILT received the Stifterverband‘s Science Award 2012 together with several partners from industry and science. The prize was awarded during the annual meeting of the Fraunhofer Society on May 8, 2012 in Stuttgart in recognition of its outstanding cross-location, multi-disciplinary collaboration on the laser platform for scaling the power of ultra-short laser pulses.
Orders are flying in from the foreign markets /stationary those from the home market: During the first quarter of 2012, the machine tool index of orders, processed by the Studies Dept. of UCIMU-SISTEMI PER PRODURRE has recorded a 10.5% increase when compared with the same period of last year, with an absolute total of 124.7 (2005=100). A continuation of the positive trend, which, with the exclusion of the last assessment for 2011, shows 8 consecutive quarters of growth, confirming the good performance of the Italian enterprises of the sector. When assessing the data, it is however necessary to consider that the result was determined, once again, only by foreign demand. The index relating to foreign orders has in fact increased by 12% in comparison with the same period of last year, for a total absolute record value of 158.9.
At its meeting on May 8, 2012, the Senate of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft elected Prof. Dr.-Ing. Reimund Neugebauer as the Institute‘s next president. In October, he will succeed Prof. Dr. Hans-Jörg Bullinger, who has stood at the helm of the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft for the past ten years.

Today, in modern wire drawing mills and cable plants, particularly those with multiline wire drawing machines, various ten of housands of costly diamond-/PCD die-tools are in permanent use. At present, the following specific die-tool data , such as property data: e.g. manufacturer, fabrication number, die-geometry, bore-size diameter, die-tool material, delivery date etc. and performance data: e.g. time and endurance of application, number of repairs, usages with new bore-sizes, amount of drawn wire materials, other information etc. are mainly to be collected and registered by means of time consuming bureaucratic procedures, considerable involvement of personnel and paperwork required only and often such important data hardly ever are within immediate reach when needed.

The newly developed X25 from North Star Imaging (NSI, www.4nsi.com) is a compact digital x-ray and computed tomography (CT) system designed for submicron resolution imaging and ultra-high accuracy scanning. The system is dedicated to the inspection of small to medium sized objects in the electronics, medical devices and other sophisticated industries. It houses a precise five-axis manipulator with vibration isolation system and provides a spacious 228 mm x 228 mm (9” x 9”) scanning envelope and a rotational stage capable of handling up to 11 kg (25 lbs). These features make it an ideal choice for x-ray and CT applications ranging from 3D metrology to failure analysis both in industrial quality control and R&D laboratories. With external dimensions of 185.4 cm width, 96.5 cm depth and 180.3 cm height the X25 fits through most standard interior doors and thus literally opens the door for many universities or companies needing a multipurpose high-resolution X-ray and CT system with a limited laboratory footprint.
Designed for either manual or automatic operation, the new 'Burst' dispensing system offered by Buehler (www.buehler.com) helps to improve consistency in the preparation of metallographic specimens and reduces the amount of consumables used and the associated cost. The system is suitable for dispensing all diamond and oxide polishing suspensions and lubricants. Owing to its modular structure, the system can be used with virtually any grinder-polisher system, where by its operating mode – manual, semi- or fully automatic – is determined by the capabilities of the grinder-polisher to which the system is connected. A maximum of five dispensing mod¬ules with different fluids can be operated with a single grinder-polisher, and are connected to the latter either by means of an optional stadium seating module or by USB cable.
The Wilson Hardness Tukon™ 3100 is a newly developed single indenter Vickers-Knoop hardness tester from ITW Test & Measurement, Esslingen/Germany (www.wilson-hardness.com), specifically designed to maximize efficiency, accuracy and usability.

Retaining the existing load frame, specimen grips and load cells, Instron engineers will decommission the existing controls and recording instruments, and install and connect all modules forming part of the retrofit package.
With Axio Zoom.V16, Carl Zeiss is defining a new instrument class in microscopy. For the first time, zoom microscopes are now combining typical benefits of stereomicroscopes such as zoom optics and long working distances with the higher resolutions of light microscopes. In comparable image fields, Axio Zoom.V16 offers a 2.5 times higher resolution than stereomicroscopes. With a 16x zoom range, Axio Zoom.V16 surpasses all comparable microscopes currently available.
Running nicely – this applies even more to aqueous biopolymer solutions than to oil. These solutions are used as a cooling lubricant for machining hard metals and for tool-making machinery on which tools are manufactured. Metalworking plays a key role in industry. Drilling, milling, turning and grinding operations all use lubricants to prevent work pieces and tools from overheating and from excess wear. Standard lubricants today are based on mineral oil. This has drawbacks: fossil mineral oils come from finite resources, transport relatively little heat away from the work piece, are harmful to health and are flammable. All of this calls for extreme technical efforts, for occupational safety, fire safety and disposal, for example. So there‘s a need for alternative lubricants.
The ambitious goals set by the German government to promote energy efficiency have put pressure on companies to change their energy-use policies. But the sustainable management of energy resources and the associated energy-saving measures can only be implemented if users have a reliable means of quantifying their power consumption. A novel sensor enables them to do just that, and thereby comply with the new government regulations. The new metering device will be presented at the Sensor+Test 2012 trade fair in Nuremberg from 22 to 24 May.

This will increase productivity and reduce the specific power requirement of the furnace even further. Commissioning is planned for March 2013.
At first sight it's disquieting news for established industrial nations but on closer inspection, opportunities become apparent: Emerging nations and aspiring industrial nations are increasingly investing in patents and innovations. This trend is particularly prevalent in China. Around 30 years ago, the People's Republic could not lay claim to a single patented invention. Nowadays, however, approximately 300,000 patent applications are filed in the country each year, and as such it is thought that China will become the world leader in terms of patent applications in 2011 — ahead of Japan and the USA.

Besides its productivity, the energy consumption of a machine becomes increasingly the criterion of the purchase decision. Therefore, already during production, manufacturers must keep an eye on the energy efficiency of the individual components. A drive concept with variable speed pump drives promises a high potential of savings. To keep the engineering effort as low as possible, the machine manufacturer expects unproblematic implementation in its machine concept. When choosing Sytronix Variable Speed Pumps from Rexroth, the integration will be an easy and safe experience.
