An AC drive is a device that is used to control the speed of an electric motor, which are present in almost all robots and automated machines.
In a statement, Yaskawa, which shipped the world’s first transistor inverter in 1974, says: “We are pleased to announce that the cumulative shipments of AC Drives reached 30 million units in January 2021.” [Read more…] about Yaskawa achieves 30 million total shipments of AC drives
Trees are an important part of our lives; they add aesthetic value to the surrounding environment, improve air and water quality, reduce soil erosion, and provide shade during the scorching summer months.
Likewise, power lines serve the machinery and equipment we interact with every day, adding luxury and efficacy to our lives.
While these two provide amazing benefits, when trees and power lines are in close proximity to roads, they become a potential hazard to motorists and can cause extreme vehicle damages and bodily injuries if they fall over or motorists accidentally run into them.
Read on to find out how to stay safe while driving on roads with trees and power lines. [Read more…] about Trees and power lines
