The Swedish Steel Prize, which celebrates its 20th anniversary this year, aims to recognize the good engineering, cooperation and steel innovations that lead to a better and more sustainable world. Shape Corp., from the USA, is one of the four finalists for this year’s prize, which will be awarded during a ceremony in Stockholm, Sweden on November 14. The award ceremony is part of a three-day event where hundreds of international participants will take part in seminars and a site visit at SSAB. Shape Corp. is nominated for its 3D roof rail tube, a new innovation that represents a first in the automotive industry and will result in both cost savings for OEMs and safer cars for the general public. “In the mid-2000s we developed bending technology that could bend in one direction in the same plane, in line with our roll forming process. We called it 1D bending, and over the next few years this technology progressed to handling bending in...

Swedish IT company has developed a very precise weather and wind data product portfolio to help aircrafts fly as economically and comfortably as possible – without the airlines having to invest in any new equipment. In a recent real-life test, Norwegian Air Shuttle reduced CO2-emissions by 2 000 tons in three months’ time last autumn, by using Avtech’s services in the company’s fleet of 106 Boeing 737-800 aircrafts. “We saved from one to eighty kilograms of fuel per flight, the average being 22 kilos, purely by optimizing the descent phase of the flights”, says Norwegian pilot and project manager Stig Patey. “The 10K weather grid makes it possible to avoid unfavourable winds at given altitudes during the flight and to start the descent phase at exactly the right moment. Our pilots have reportedly been very pleased with the easy to use service that in real life proved to be much more accurate than the standard weather systems.” All of...

A good flight is the one that is on time and has not been whipped around by turbulence. Here Swedish AVTech comes into the picture with its advanced technology to predict invisible turbulence and bad weather. It’s the only weather service on the market based on the high definition weather data from UK’s Met Office. “Our Sigma service goes beyond normal weather reports, since it’s the only service that has access to UK’s Met Office’s high definition weather data”, says Niklaes Persson, Business Unit Director, R&D. “Combined with our patented algorithms, Sigma can predict weather hazards with an accuracy of only 10 km, individually for any flight. Normally the pilots have access to a global weather grid that covers a very coarse area of 140 km.” The information from the Sigma service is supplementary to the normal weather sources approved by the authorities; SWC and Sigmets. “The source is the same, but the information is more in detail...

Каким образом нейромаркетинг, означающий использование комбинаций биометрических методов измерения для анализа реакций потребителей, может стать инструментом, улучшающим продаваемую способность упаковки? Компании Iggesund Paperboard и Tobii Pro, являющаяся мировым лидером в области разработки технологий отслеживания направления взгляда, ответят на этот вопрос в рамках эксклюзивных семинаров, организованных для клиентов обеих компаний. «Отслеживание направления взгляда позволяет измерить зрительное внимание и восприятие клиентом дизайна упаковки, благодаря чему становится возможным оценить степень привлекательности упаковки в магазине еще до начала ее промышленного производства. В большинстве случаев, покупатели принимают решение о покупке именно в магазине, поэтому привлечение внимания и вызов интереса потребителя с помощью эффективных форматов упаковки является ключевым фактором в конкурентной рыночной среде», – поясняет Али Фарохян...
