APPLE INVENTS NEW LUBRICATION SYSTEM
There is a new trend on the horizon - bendable smartphones. Apple inventors
are working on a new lubrication system that will protect a phone's layers and
allow them to slip over one another when the display is bent or twisted. According
to Patently Apple, some of the necessary technologies to make foldable devices a
reality might be ready to roll out as early as 2018.
NEW INSIGHTS INTO WOMEN IN MANUFACTURING
In April, the Manufacturing Institute, Deloitte and APICS released a "Women in
Manufacturing" study. Six hundred women in the manufacturing industry were
surveyed and gave their perspectives on how manufacturers can recruit, retain and
advance women. The study reveals that challenging opportunities, attractive pay
and work-life balance are most important to women. With an expected shortfall
of 2 million workers over the next decade, it is insight and advice to which companies should pay attention. (See page 8 for "A Holistic Approach to Preparing
Women for Manufacturing Jobs.")
CALUMET LAUNCHES NEW SYNTHETIC BASE OIL
Calumet Specialty Products Partners L.P., an independent producer of specialty
hydrocarbon and fuel products, announced the launch of CALPAR 4GIII engineered in-house. CALPAR 4GIII is the company's first API Group III synthetic
base oil. "This launch broadens and enhances our portfolio, which now includes
products across Group I, Group II, Group III and Group V," Bill Anderson, executive vice president of sales, said in a news release about the launch.
GROWING DEMAND FOR LUBRICANT BLENDING-ON-BOARD
SYSTEMS HIGHLIGHTED
Recently, Ship & Bunker reported an influx of orders for Maersk Fluid Technology's (MFT) Sea-Mate Bob, which MFT claims confirms demand for solutions that
allow for the blending of fit-for-purpose cylinder lubricant compositions
onboard vessels. Sune Lilbaek, head of sales at MFT, is quoted as saying, "Our
experiences with the current 200-plus installations have proved that it will be
possible to achieve continuous lubrication at, or close to, the lowest allowed consumption of lubricant as specified by the engine manufacturer, with the optimal
amount of acid neutralization and cleaning properties - the cylinder lubricant
from the Sea-Mate Bob system always matching the fuel composition."
