Thermal effects in precision systems

In precision engineering, thermal effects have always been important in reaching high precision. Yet, over the years little attention has been given to this subject. Therefore, Mikrocentrum, in cooperation with Tegema Group, decided to organise a second seminar on thermomechanics, following the first one held four years ago, which attracted considerable interest. This year, the seminar focused on the control of thermal behaviour of precision systems. Once again, attendance was above average, underlining the topicality and relevance of this issue.
