Mitsubishi Electric FR-D700 VFD
Mitsubishi Electric FR-D700 Variable Frequency Drive allows adjustable speed control of an ac induction motor. It is Mitsubishi Electric's fifth generation of Micro Drive. Mitsubishi says it built this drive to be highly economical while maintaining the company's longstanding commitment to offering products that meet the highest quality and performance standards. Key reliability features include a 5-year warranty, a 10-year maintenance-free design life, and a published mean time between failures in excess of 25 years. The drive's life check function continuously monitors the degrees of deterioration of critical internal components such as capacitors, inrush resistor, and cooling fans that can wear out over time. This warning function allows preventive maintenance to be scheduled and performed, thus avoiding critical machine down time and lost production. www.meau.com

2012 Salary Survey
In a year when manufacturing continued to lead the economic rebound, it makes sense that plant manager bonuses rebounded. Plant Engineering’s annual Salary Survey shows both wages and bonuses rose in 2012 after a retreat the year before.
Average salary across all job titles for plant floor management rose 3.5% to $95,446, and bonus compensation jumped to $15,162, a 4.2% increase from the 2010 level and double the 2011 total, which showed a sharp drop in bonus.
