A turn of speed

摘要

The surge in the use of drives is now a worldwide phenomenon — in the consumer world as well as in industry. One example is the ability to adjust the position of car seats at the touch of a button. Last year IMS Research reported consecutive years of strong growth, although the latest figures are awaited with interest. Production is on the move and drives companies are responding. For example, Finland's Vacon Drives has announced strategic initiatives to enter the south-east Asian, Russian and Indian markets in recognition of these areas' manufacturing growth.
