Where Innovation Meets Imagination
Condensation on windows is a common winter phenomenon, and not necessarily indicative of air sealing or window replacement need.
Modern double and triple paned windows often include an inert gas layer (usually argon) between their glass panes to reduce condensation risk and avoid dew point reaching its dew point and creating condensation on their panes. [Read more…] about How to Resolve Window Condensation

Breakthrough could mean parts for discontinued models become more widely available for customers
Nissan has developed a new way to use robots to make car parts out of sheet steel, a breakthrough that could make replacement parts for discontinued models more widely available for customers.
Nissan hopes to commercialize the proprietary technique, known as dual-sided dieless forming. The technique involves two synchronized robots working from opposite sides of a steel sheet, using diamond-coated tools to gradually shape the steel.
Thanks to its flexible production, short lead times and minimal upfront costs, the new technique could make it commercially viable to produce and sell a wide variety of after-service and replacement parts in small volumes for cars that Nissan no longer makes.
