MOOG TO PRESENT TWO TECHNICAL PAPERS ON WIND TURBINE BLADE LOAD MEASUREMENT AND PITCH SYSTEM MODELS AT EWEA 2011
East Aurora, New York, USA, 14 March 2011 – Engineers from Moog are scheduled to present two papers at Poster Sessions on Wednesday March 16 at 16.00 and 17.30 at EWEA, Europe’s premier wind energy event that takes place this year in Brussels. Topics are “A pitch system model for more realistic load simulations of wind turbines,” and “How to increase turbine payback with blade load measurement.” Moog, a leader in providing blade pitch control, slip ring and rotor monitoring solutions for the wind energy industry has been a frequent presenter at previous global wind events.

Quick-connection technology enables use of M12 cord sets
Belden has extended its range of Lumberg Automation™ products to include new Profibus DP connectors. These connectors each have a D-Sub and M12 interface, and are offered with 35°, 90° or 180° cable outlets. All versions support data rates of up to 12 Mbit/s and feature a compact die-cast zinc housing with test socket and activatable terminating resistor. They also boast quick-connection technology that enables Profibus DP devices to be connected with M12 Profibus cord sets simply and securely without the use of tools. The advantage of this, for example, is reduced downtimes of machinery and equipment when faults occur, increasing production efficiency.
URMOND (NL), November 18, 2010 - A study recently completed among the commercial fishing community has yielded clear proof that nets made with Dyneema® ultra-strong lightweight fiber yield major cost savings for fishermen through reductions in fuel usage, and make an important contribution to the sustainability of the fishing industry through reduced emissions of carbon dioxide.
Muttenz, November 18, 2010 - Muttenz headquartered specialty chemicals expert Clariant is supporting the ZHAW School of Engineering in Winterthur in a major R&D collaboration on-target to achieve a breakthrough in anti-freeze technology. Sectors such as wind power, refrigeration and aviation will benefit from more reliable cold temperature performance and cuts in energy use if trials led by researchers at the ZHAW to prevent or drastically minimize surface ice build-up are successful.
At K 2010, DSM Engineering Plastics has launched Arnitel® Eco, a bio-based, high performance engineering plastic.
