Federal Signal's Breakthrough LED Technology Reduces
Cost by 50-60%
Models 191XL, 225XL, 27XL and 2000 Series LED feature eXtreme Light Technology (XLT™), a
high-intensity LED array that optimizes light output with superior lens
fill. In addition to outperforming conventional LEDs with increased
illumination and greater versatility, these lights also offer the
vibration and shock resistance, reduced power consumption and extended
service life that is inherent to LED technology. The costs of servicing
an incandescent signal light, including replacement parts and service
man hours can be two to three times the cost of installing a
new Federal Signal LED with XLT™. Available in both
DC and AC voltages, variety of lens colors and multiple mounting
configurations. www.federalsignal-indust.com

***Luna Glow Emergency Lighting***
SALISBURY, NC: Shat-R-Shield announces the introduction of Luna
Glow sleeves to their safety lighting product line. Luna Glow is an
emergency lighting solution that doesn’t rely on main power or
batteries, requires no testing or maintenance and is 100% fail-safe.
Offered in T12 and T8 sizes, Luna Glow’s translucent, tubular design
slips easily over an existing fluorescent lamp. Held in place with
provided end caps, it then “soaks up” energy from the powered lamp.
When the lights go out -- for whatever reason -- Luna Glow immediately
activates and provides its “stored” photoluminescent illumination
for quick, safe and orderly evacuation. Benefits of using Luna Glow with
your existing fluorescent lamps include: low initial cost; no wiring,
tools, batteries or maintenance; quick and easy installation; and
automatic activation. ---Shat-R-Shield

Keynote Address: "What's ahead for US Manufacturing-
The Future Is Your Decision"
Sponsor: AutomationDirect
Time: 10:00am EDT
The economy is shifting and the road signs are getting ominous for
2009. Find out what are the leading indicator trends to watch and how
you can prepare for the future, so that it will be what you want it to
be!
Presenting: Brain Beaulieu is a senior analyst, economist and a
principal has been with the Institute for Trend Research (ITR. Mr.
Beaulieu has been consulting and advising companies throughout the US,
Europe, and Asia on how to plan for and prosper through the business
cycles.
Presentation topic: Push. Click. Done. - New Universal
Push to Connect Assembly
Sponsor: Parker Hannifin - Tube Fittings
Division
Time: 11:00am EDT
Parkers new Universal Push to Connect design takes the guess work
out of assembling fluid power connections. Current assembly of threaded
connectors is slow and relies on proper torques and assembly procedures.
Parker’s new design saves time and money by eliminating the wrenching
of hose ends to fittings and the costly rework of improperly assembled
connections.
Simply insert the male hose end into the Universal Push to Connect
fitting and assembly is complete. If a hose needs to be replaced or
maintenance performed, a standard wrench is all you need. Because the
design utilizes standard O-ring Face Seal (ORFS) fittings, an
off-the-shelf ORFS hose assembly can be used to replace any that are
damaged, therefore minimizing downtime.
Presentation topic: Prepare your air to maximize
cylinder life.
An Instructive Tutorial for Use of Filters, Regulators & Lubricators
Sponsor: Bimba Manufacturing
Time: 2:00pm EDT
The presentation will discuss the elementary parts of air
preparation. Sizing the right filters is essential to prevent
contaminants migrating to your equipment and causing failures.
Regulators help with the consistent operating pressure your pneumatic
system. Choosing a good lubricator will help reduce excessive component
wear and also prolong your equipment life. We will also review unique
accessories that can help improve your system performance.
Presentation topic: Designing Belt Power
Transmission Systems for Energy Savings
Sponsor: Gates Corporation
Time: 3:00pm EDT
It’s a topic no one can afford to ignore. Companies are looking
for ways to save energy in power transmission operations. Put simply,
efficient systems save money.
Join Brent Oman, who has over 20 years of drive design experience with
Gates Corporation, for a free webinar on designing the most
energy-saving power transmission solutions. He’ll compare the
capabilities of V-belts and synchronous belts, so that you’re equipped
with the latest information on energy efficiency.
You’ll walk away with practical pointers to start saving energy, and
money, in your drives.
The presentation concludes with an interactive, Q&A session, so bring
your questions.

Conference.
