Patients with ICDs are commonly advised to quit industrial jobs because of concerns that strong electromagnetic fields operating in the industrial environment might interfere with ICD functions. This study was done to assess interactions between industrial equipment and ICDs, and to devise a simple low risk screening protocol. We studied 18 patients carrying nine different ICD models who were m...

The trend of digitalization provides new opportunities for industrial equipment manufactures as sensor technology and ubiquitous connectivity become part of the equipment. In particular, cyber-physical systems (CPSs) enable digital innovation for the industrial product and service business by improving operational efficiencies, facilitating innovative hybrid business models, and fuelling servit...

Description: Practical, easy–to–follow advice that saves lives Based on the author's thirty years of hands–on experience working in the field of industrial fuel systems and combustion equipment safety, this book integrates safety codes with practical, tested, and proven guidance that makes it viable to specify, operate, and maintain industrial fuel and combustion systems as safely as possible. ...

In this century, mass-producing manufacturing corporations turning out standardized products in bulk are the leading industrial form. So dominant in the modern era, these companies have also come to signify much of our nineteenth-century industrial history. While mass production certainly deserves its biographers, the sheer volume of this literature has blocked many from perceiving the full var...

As the demands for reliable, real-time automation and process control in industrial environments increase, an Industrial Ethernet cabling system quickly becomes the most attractive solution. Cables used in industrial environments must be designed to work in harsh environments of temperature extremes, humidity, and vibration. Many times this can exceed the ranges for information technology equip...

A growing trend in industrial automation is to use virtualization technology to combine what were previously discrete subsystems into a single system. The Intel® Industrial Solutions System Consolidation Series greatly simplifies this effort by pre-integrating key virtualization software onto platforms based on 4th generation Intel® CoreTM vProTM processors, thus reducing development time for o...

Southern timber harvesting equipment and on-road vehicle costs were obtained for the years from 1967 to 1984. Average cost trends for equipment and vehicles were determined for the period. Average logging contract rates and price trends were also estimated. Comparisons indicated that equipment costs increased more than the general inflation rate and less than the prices of other industrial comm...
