Stuff there: On the DÖGA - yes, this is the first "Career Fair kebab restaurant" in the heartland of Berlin kebab - was presented to the Robotu kebab, doner cutting the first robot in the world. This fits into one of the subjects related to my "umtreiben" moment: Where does meaningful automation? The kebab is Robotu - including an image recognition control of the cutting angle - a huge effort operated to achieve at the end of a negligible effect: the seller, who cuts the doner has done is indeed still needed. Can - often observed - "pre-cutting" the kebab even when no customer is there. The doner Robotu in action can be seen in this video from Focus Online: More than meets automation Doner Teseo compressed air specialist in the beautiful Desenzano on Lake Garda, had an interesting idea: to produce compressed air with wind power. The press release here: Teseo is at the Hannover Messe 2010 from Teseo resumes at the Hanover Fair (19 to 23 April 2010) part and presents an innovative wind-driven air compressor. First presentation in Energy Hall 27, booth # L14. Desenzano del Garda, 26 February 2010 - The TESEO srl, developer and manufacturer of aluminum pipes and connections (for More about Teseo turns wind into air
Yesterday I was in Mulfingen at ebm-papst for a case study interview on behalf of Inneo . ebm-papst is a well known manufacturer of fans, in the IT sector, the pope's fan is a term with which they formerly made computers silently. Rarely have I seen such a well thought-papst and integrated mechatronic process chain, as in, even the 3D models of circuit boards and electronic components are produced entirely by detail and automatically. The entire process chain up in the production revolves around the Pro / E data. Consequence: Any technical trainees, each trainee in the development becomes the first in Inneo a Pro / E basic training so he can ever be put to good use. And there is also nothing to make coffee and Copying: The interns get a real job and have to - put themselves - as far as possible. This also relieves the developer of "educational work". And the intern can really learn something. More about ebm papst: without Pro / E training is nothing At Spiegel Online , a report about a traffic concept - the first time a possible answer to the range problem of today's electric cars - at least for me. Designer Christian Förg has developed as a thesis on the concept Speedway. The trick: In the futuristic city driving mode device as a "normal" electric car with a range of about 200km, enough for short journeys. Longer distances to be overcome, the vehicle goes into the Speedway mode and is driven by a linear motor built into the highway. The linear motor is nothing more than a long series of coils below the roadway, whose magnetic field is reversed periodically so that the car is pulled by the magnetic attraction and repulsion to the front. It can load, even the batteries, so you when exiting the highway again, the full 200km range available. The highway is more than the engine - new electric car concept At Spiegel Online there is an article on cloud computing, but brings little new, but a nice introduction to the subject. The concerns that I formulate in the next print edition of the CAD CAM on cloud computing come here for discussion: How can you come up with the idea of sensitive corporate data, be it CAD models - see SolidWorks World 2010, where a to see cloud-ready technology study of the CAD system was - or accounting data, save to "somewhere"?

I've done it again was: New assembly technology newsletter online: http://bit.ly/buYIXk
Stefan Niggemeier, known as the founder of the blog picture , has for Süddeutsche.de written a brilliant opinion on Online-/Print-Journalismus. Very worth reading and worth thinking! Here you go: Why not journalism? So, here I am again. Always much to do, but somehow you have to run the blog, too. Last week was marked by the SolidWorks World 2010 in Anaheim, California. The weather is really pleasant than here, where it snowed the whole day. Trotzdemn it is good to sit at a desk, the work is not less. And as I have noted just how to speak actively schizophrenic: I am writing the first edition of the compact assembly technology, and am also on the Press Day of PTC in Boston / Needham. How? With Twitter. Here I follow the comments of my colleagues on Twitter. More about schizophrenia live Hello, Unfortunately I'm in the last few weeks have been way too much to post here. I was at various corporate events (Altair, Ansys, PTC, Autodesk, ...), go to trade fairs (SPS / IPC / Drives, Euromold) and for my clients on user report. What struck me at the shows: The atmosphere is rising. Motek was still behave, we went to the Fakuma was feeling better and the PLC mood I was already pretty good. Who does not depend on the automobile industry earned money again (why was the mood at the rather heavy car Euromold something muffled). And in the U.S., it seems even to run again much better - but they were earlier in the hole down there
