SAIMC Secunda branch

December 2011 SAIMC

David van Eeden from Proconics presented a topical discussion on the different flowmeters and their applications in industry. David is a design engineer and his presentation highlighted a number of practical tips which may not always be found in textbooks. The networking after the presentation allowed members to debate the pros and cons of which technology is most appropriate in different applications.

The Secunda branch of SAIMC also visited the library of the local branch of the Vaal University of Technology (VUT) to assess the reading and reference material available to students. The branch has undertaken to ensure that Instrumentation & Control magazine is available in the library. The branch would also like to appeal to members and other interested readers to donate books and other technical material for use by students. If you have a donation to make please contact Dennis Hoffman, [email protected] and we will ensure the library receives this.
