Limitless clean energy has been a concept in development for what seems to be an eternity with little success. In recent weeks, we looked at portable nuclear micro-reactors and the UK’s plans to build nuclear fusion plants. Now, we are even closer to limitless clean energy as the Korea Institute of Fusion Energy has set an astonishing new record using the tokamak reactor.
Robotics and automation have made headlines in recent years, especially in the construction sector with some tremendous advancements. While robotics in construction may be deemed a game-changer, the technology has not yet exceeded expectations but it is promising nonetheless. Without creating too much hype, here’s a measured look at the capabilities and benefits of robotics in construction.
As precision engineering and fabrication specialists, we work across various sectors and that includes construction. As such, we keep our fingers on the pulse of any new developments and few are as exciting as 3D-printed homes. Previously considered a method for product prototyping, 3D printing has changed drastically in the last few years extending to building homes around the world and on Mars. Now, ICON and Lennar are building the biggest ever neighbourhood consisting of 3D-printed homes.
Deep hole drilling services are beneficial across several applications and require specialist equipment to maintain straightness and tolerances second to none. Oil and gas exploration equipment, armaments, aerospace equipment and engines are amongst the most common applications for deep hole drilling and machining processes.
Each of these industries needs enhanced hole qualities that are necessary for high-performance end products, such as landing gear that easily retracts. In this article, PRV explores how gun drilling works and highlights some of the benefits of quality deep hole drilling services.
