			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Compressors</strong>, condensing units, refrigeration and air-conditioner units; they are all-important for the smooth running of air-conditioning and refrigeration in all aspects of industry.</p>
<p>Whether you have a business that transports fresh produce from point A to point B, or whether you run an office park and require cooling or cooling systems for shopping centers; perhaps you might require cooling systems to cool industrial machines. No matter what your needs are, you should take into account that condensing units play a vital role and work hand in glove with compressors.</p>
<p>Macs Auto supplies a full range of condensing units that are suitable to be used in all makes of motor cars, too. Imagine driving in the heat, especially that of Africa, without the efficient running of an air-conditioner unit? This is made possible only because condensing units together with compressors play such an integral part in the smooth running of these machines. Condensing units are used to disperse and dissipate the heat inside the compressor. Ambient air then flows through the condensing unit while absorbing the heat from the warmer condenser.</p>
<p><strong>Compressor</strong> failure is usually a direct result of the failure of the condensing unit.</p>
<p>Air conditioning units are something we simply take for granted, but there are certain mechanical elements that are required in order for your unit to run smoothly at all times; one of these is the all-important compressor, which is one of the vital components that will ensure that your air conditioner is functioning optimally at all times.</p>
<p><strong>Advantages of Macsauto Compressors</strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Macsauto imports      all its own compressors and supplies workshops with the essential      tools that are necessary to repair all air conditioners.</li>
<li>Compressors fall      into the extensive and excellent category of tools that are imported by      Macsauto.</li>
<li>There is outstanding      training available to learn how to correctly use of compressors and other      equipment carried out by Macsauto, which is highly recommended.</li>
</ul>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.kiloton.co.za/">Compressors</a></strong> and condensing units supplied by a proactive and competitive company that has a proud trading history since 1986, will guarantee that you have made a brilliant choice.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>USED MACHINE TOOLS &#8211; Part 2</p>
<p>A machine tool is typically powered by electrically, hydraulically, or via line shaft and is used to make manufactured components by cutting or grinding on metal.  There are approximately 600 machine tool brands and 7500 new models to choose from.  However, the global economy crisis put pay to using new products and manufacturers were forced to look at <span style="font-weight: bold">used machine tools</span> instead.</p>
<p>Falling into the category of capital goods as it does, machine tools have been greatly affected by the new credit system.  The sale of machine tools was negatively affected by the freezing of capital expenditure and because of its dependence upon the end-users in the manufacturing and automobile industries.</p>
<p>As a result of this South Africa&#8217;s international competitiveness in manufacturing has started to materialise due to the utilisation of new technologies and there are now many companies that specialize in the selling of us machine tools and new fabrication and engineering of machines.  They supply a range of <span style="font-weight: bold">used machine tools</span>, accessories, tooling, consumables and services to the metal working industry and the engineering industry at large. They usually employ full time technicians that are factory trained to repair, install and commission these different machines and provide expert advice for manufacturing processes, complete turnkey projects, installations and commissioning and training on the equipment sold.  </p>
<p>With regard to the <a target="" title="Used machine tools" href="http://www.machinetoolexchange.co.za/used-machine-tools-for-sale.asp">used machine tool</a> industry, some companies are even offering in-house training in the use of this machinery – particularly the programming of CNC machines.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p class="rvps2">Surely you have been asking<br />
yourself if your <a href="http://www.vitamin-c.co.za" title="" target="">vitamin C</a> will be good for your child, well the good<br />
news is it is absolutely ok for your child and it is essential for your<br />
baby&#8217;s healthy growth and development. It is used in a multitude of<br />
functions throughout the body, including the growth of tissues, healing<br />
after wounds and protection against the common cold. Vitamin C helps<br />
your baby effectively absorb iron and calcium from his food, and we know<br />
 that unlike other mammals humans are unable to make their own vitamin<br />
C. Your child does not have to take supplements because nothing beats<br />
fresh fruit and vegetables as a source of bio-available vitamin C. Once<br />
solids become your little one&#8217;s primary nutrition source, offering him a<br />
 healthy, balanced diet with lots of veggies and fruit should meet all<br />
his vitamin C requirements, without the need for additional, synthetic<br />
vitamins. To ensure that the fruits and veggies you buy for your baby<br />
are truly fresh, you must look for ripe produce and allow it to ripen<br />
because fully ripe fruits and vegetables contain more vitamin C than<br />
unripe. In order to minimize vitamin C loss you need to store your<br />
fruits and veggies in a cold, dark place. And try to serve fruits and<br />
vegetables to your baby raw whenever possible. You can cook fruits and<br />
vegetables for the shortest time possible because over cooking are the<br />
quickest way to destroy their vitamin C content. And try steaming fruits<br />
 and vegetables rather than boiling them because in this way vitamin C<br />
is less lost.<a name="_GoBack"></a></p>
<p class="rvps4"><span class="rvts7">If you do boil fruits and<br />
vegetables for your baby, add the cooking water back into the food<br />
whenever possible because this makes use of the vitamin C that has<br />
dissolved </span><span class="rvts6">into the water. And did you know that adding a bit of baking in your child</span><span class="rvts8">’</span><span class="rvts6">s food will help retain their bright color. So now you can prepare your child</span><span class="rvts8">’</span><span class="rvts6">s vegetables in a different way, now that you know all the tricks.</span></p>
<p class="rvps5"><span class="rvts6">Your child will love how they taste and maybe he/she won</span><span class="rvts8">’</span><span class="rvts6">t get enough of the food, so go ahead and look out for more foods that can help your child to grow up into a strong boy/girl. </span><br /><span class="rvts9"></span><br /><span class="rvts9"><br /></span></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">A Sense of Smell From Your TV</span></p>
<p>Researchers at the University of California, San Diego in collaboration with Samsung Advanced Institute of Technology in Korea have shown research that demonstrates that it is possible to generate odour at will. They want to develop a compact device that is small enough to fit at the back of your TV that has the potential to release thousands of odours.</p>
<p>The scent would come from an aqueous solution, such as ammonia, which forms an odorous gas when it is heated. When the heat odour pressure build, a tiny compressed hole in the elastomer is opened that releases the odour.</p>
<p>The question is will audiences and advertisers latch onto such an idea, but first it is a simple question of whether it is possible.</p>

<p>A device has been developed that allows people with reduced mobility or weakness in the upper torso to drive a vehicle with one hand.</p>
<p>During the 13th EAEC European Automotive Congress, the Institute of Biomechanics of Valencia presented a prototype that eliminates the need of a steering wheel. The prototype allows the driver to control and guide a vehicle, accelerate, change gears and break with one hand and one arm.</p>
<p>This is a great idea for all types of people and many will be able to drive vehicles, which would be impossible before.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span style="font-weight: bold;">Engineering Wonders</span></p>
<p>1.    CERN’s Large Hadron Collider<br />The Hadron Collidor is located in Switzerland, near Geneva; it spans the border between Switzerland and France at about 100m under the ground. Scientists use a particle accelerator to study the smallest particles known to man.</p>
<p>2.    The Hubble Telescope<br />The Hubble was taken into orbit in 1990. The Hubble was crucial for astronomy, it is also the only telescope created in such a way that astronauts can service it in space. Many Hubble observations have helped lead to breakthroughs in astrophysics, including the understanding of how the universe expands.</p>
<p>3. Three Gorges Dam<br />The Three Gorges Dam takes shape of the largest hydroelectric power plant in the world. It supplies about 4% of the energy that is needed by China, reaching 22 500 megawatts and its still not fully operational.</p>
<p>4.    Burj-Al-Arab Hotel<br />The largest building used as a hotel in the world is the Burj Al Arab, which rises at 321 metres and is connected to the mainland by a private curved bridge. The building imitates a type of vessel called dhow, which features a 180 metre high atrium between the two sides. It is also built on an artificial island.</p>
<p>5.    Akashi Kaikyo Suspension Bridge<br />This is the longest suspension bridge in the world. It took over 2 million workers and 181 000 tonnes of steel and 1.4 cubic metres of concrete. The steel cable that they used could go around the world 7 times.</p>
<p>6.    Space Telescope Chandra<br />Chandra was capable of sending the most precise images of outer space. The X-ray images it features redefined many of our notions about cosmos.</p>
<p>7.    Bird’s nest<br />The Birds Nest sits in the very core of Beijing. It was built at a tenth of what it would have cost in Europe or America. It is the world’s largest steel constructions.</p>
