Rivit has launched at the Hardware Fair in Cologne two new models of hydropneumatic tools for inserts: RIV938 and RIV938S.
RIV938 is designed for Rivsert female threaded inserts, from M3 to M8, and Rivbolt male threaded inserts, from M4 to M8. RIV938S, however, is used for placing threaded inserts from M3 to M6. Both of them have regulation of oil pressure (force).
The new tools were designed so that the hydropneumatic system and the mechanical parts that make up the internal structure of the tools, in comparison with other models, provide high reliability in reducing problems due to wear of components, resulting in improved durability and functionality of the tools themselves.
The advantages of RIV938 and RIV938S are:
One-position trigger mechanism.
No adjustments are needed when thicknesses change.
No damage to mandrel (or tie rod) is caused when the operation is repeated.
Low weight and small overall dimensions that provide great handiness.
Once again the range of tools for fixing produced and distributed by Rivit is further enriched, resulting in more and more complete equipments for the installation of rivets and inserts.

The units of the Compact U.S. series consist of vat of washing endowed with one or more immerse ultrasound transducers and of inside or external autonomous generator. Their operating principle consists in propagating vibrations through the liquid at a variable frequency, that can generate high-pressure and low pressure waves and put the liquid in cavitation. Cavitation produces some bubble of vapor that implode creating an infinite of small crash against the walls of the component in treatment. These diffused little knock contribute to detach dry dirty. All the vats are constructed in stainless steel and are double skinned with thermal insulation. The unities of Compact US series are realized in some standard models that differ for heating and ultrasound power.
The unities of special us series consist in vat of washing realized in base to the specific demands of the client, endowed with particular dimensions, multiple stadiums of treatment and more or less sophisticated automatisms. The construction of multiple stage systems in semiautomatic and automatic versions may be achieved by aligning of the single units.

Not simple mechanical components, but lifting solutions. When in addition to the completeness of the range there is also the availability of a wide range of accessories and options, it is possible to develop complete and highly customized lifting systems to meet specific needs.

The recent expansion and improvement of the screw jacks range made by MecVel, has given out the new series HT (travelling screw version) and HR (rotating screw).
The mentioned series are now available in 6 models HR / HT 05-10-25-50-100-200, with forces from 5 to 200 kN and reduction ratios from 1:4 to 1:30.

They have been fully revised in order to achieve higher performance benefits over previous models; the new versions have more versatile mounting holes and conjugated profiles type IZ of helical worms and bronze wheels (involute profile-section). This leads to a gradual, continuous and smooth pairing in rolling of conjugated profiles, in all conditions of operation and the torque transmission occurs in a more gentle and gradual way.

The worms are case-hardened and tempered steel, while the bronze wheels present increased height for greater contact area which dissipates more heat and increases the driving of the screw.

The frictional losses are very small, because the involute component clearly prevails over the sliding friction. From this it follows a higher and more steady efficiency, and at the same time, a reduction of overheating produced by friction. The gearbox will thus be quieter, the vibrations reduced and the duration of the product increased.

Also improved sealing system allows both grease and oil lubrication.

These features allow duty cycles up to 100%, high speeds, higher safety factors and screws longer than 3 m. Available travelling and rotating screws can be both trapezoidal in carbon steel (standard) or Stainless steel AISI 304 and ball screws.

To complete this range a very wide set of accessories and options are also supplied: bevel gearboxes, shafts, couplings, electronic devices for control of motor torque. A wide choice that enables supply of full lifting systems highly customized and complete solutions targeted to meet specific needs.

As huge fans of Audi’s high-performance quattro vehicles, we were pretty disappointed to learn that the new Audi RS5 will not be coming to the United States. Well, it seems like Audi may have changed its mind and the new RS5 may be headed to the stateside after all.

Click here for pricing on the 2010 Audi A5.

Apparently the growing popularity of the RS5 in the United States has Audi second-guessing itself. When (and if) the Audi RS5 comes to the stateside, it will be the first RS-car to be shipped stateside since the departure of the slow-selling RS4 Cabriolet in 2008.

U.S. sales of the Audi RS5 should begin sometime in the summer of 2011.

Refresher: Power for the 2011 Audi RS5 comes from a 4.2L naturally aspirated V8 making 450-hp and a maximum torque of 317 lb-ft. Mated to a standard 7-speed S tronic, the 2011 RS5 goes from 0-62 mph in 4.6 seconds with a top speed of 155 mph (electronically governed).

Pelo jeito a parceria da Subaru com a Cosworth não esta pra brincadeira no desenvolvimento da versão mais apimentada do Subaru Impreza. Isso porque além de mostrar novas imagens, a companhia divulgou novas informações do Subaru Impreza STI CS400 que cumpriram a promessa inicial da companhia, de que o modelo iria nos surpreender.

De acordo com as primeiras informações recebidas, o modelo contará com motor de 400 cavalos de potência a 5750 rpm, e até ai não há nada de surpreendente. Contudo, o que nos espanta é sua aceleração de 0 a 100 km/h, que será cumprida em apenas 3,7 segundos, um tempo muito próximo dos carros superesportivos.

Um dos fatores que com certeza pesaram nos números é o sofisticado sistema de tração 4×4, no qual a Subaru já possui um know-how considerável no desenvolvimento do sistema, devido a suas participações em rallys.

E seguindo essa evolução de desempenho, o Subaru Impreza STI CS400 recebeu um sistema de frenagem AP Racing de alto desempenho desenvolvido especialmente para o modelo. Além disso, sua suspensão e escapamento também receberam um upgrade para suportar sua potencia extra.

Suas vendas deverão começar a partir do mês de junho e sua produção será limitada em apenas 75 unidades.

Earlier this year, we pointed to a lawsuit involving Rupert Murdoch’s News Corp., sued for airing an interview with Michael Jackson’s ex-wife. We noted how amusing the lawsuit filing was, because it blatantly mocked Rupert Murdoch due to his earlier statements claiming that fair use would be barred by the courts — trying to cut off that defense. But, of course, the only way to defend the actions is to use fair use — and that’s exactly what Fox News is doing in its defense of the lawsuit, heavily claiming fair use. It certainly makes you wonder — if Murdoch ever really does pull that supposedly itchy trigger finger on a Google lawsuit — if filings such as these will come back to haunt him. How can he claim that fair use doesn’t exist on the one hand, while one of his companies uses the doctrine to defend itself in a lawsuit?

Mazda has announced plans to launch its all-new SKY Concept powertrains in the United States starting as early as 2011.

“By launching our SKY technologies into the global market place, beginning in 2011, we will take a huge step toward accomplishing our stated goal of achieving a 30-percent improvement in global fuel economy by 2015,” said Takashi Yamanouchi, representative director, president and CEO, Mazda Motor Corporation.

The first of the two engines to be introduced in the U.S. will be the Mazda SKY-G, the company’s next-generation gasoline engine that will be the core powertrain in future Mazda vehicles. SKY-G is expected to boost fuel efficiency by approximately 15 percent while increasing engine power.

The SKY-G engine will be followed by the SKY-D engine, a high-performance diesel engine that will allow its next-generation Mazda6 mid-size sedan to achieve 43 mpg on the highway – “which is better than today’s mid-sized hybrids – and a 20-percent improvement in fuel efficiency over Mazda’s current 2.2-liter diesel,” Yamanouchi said.

“By optimizing our existing technologies – engines, transmissions, weight reduction and aerodynamics – we aim to benefit all our customers and minimize the cost of ownership,” said Yamanouchi. “The phased introduction of these new technologies will form the building blocks of Mazda’s future.”
