  • New at norelem: Linear roller guides

    These include straight and curved linear guide rails made of bright, hardened steel and two variants of the matching roller carriages.

  • Hydraulic versus pneumatic components for industrial applications

    By necessity, hydraulics components handle higher pressures, often in the range of thousands of PSI (pounds per square inch), whereas pneumatic system actuators aren’t as robust, and this statement can be backed by science.

  • Three key fan laws explained: Airflow versus static pressure versus horsepower

    These three fan laws explain how a fan’s airflow, pressure and power consumption change in response to a change in fan operating speed within certain fixed systems.

  • Bolt monitoring system for wind turbines

    The system detects broken bolts or studs in the blade root that connects to the hub and alerts operators immediately.
