A look to Future Energy Engineering Future Energy Engineering reflects how rapidly the energy landscape is changing. As the industry moves toward low- and zero-emission systems, engineering plays a critical role. In particular, robust design, analysis and testing will determine which technologies succeed beyond the research phase. Looking ahead to 2026, this challenge is only […]

Behind bespoke test rig design Behind the Rigs explores the engineering thinking behind bespoke test rigs and specialist machinery. In many cases, off-the-shelf equipment cannot meet modern R&D demands. As engineering challenges grow more complex, custom solutions play a more important role. In 2025, this trend became especially clear across energy, aerospace and advanced materials

Marking a Decade of Support This year marks a decade of support for the Ministry of Defence’s helicopter ground support equipment. Since 2014, our team has calibrated and maintained the ATLAS TRDS laser alignment system, ensuring its accuracy and reliability. Used to align helicopter tail rotor drive shafts, the system remains a vital part of

What Is Laser Shaft Alignment? Laser shaft alignment is the precise process of measuring and correcting the position of rotating shafts so that they operate on a common axis. Using a laser head and receiver, engineers can identify both angular and offset misalignment between couplings or shafts. Data captured by the system is processed through
