32.4°C! Cor blimey!! What a scorcher!!! Who would have thought that?!

These past few months will remain etched in millions of memories as not only the year in which London 2012 staged a stunningly spectacular, mind-blowingly creative and heart-warmingly moving Olympic Games (which had initially looked as if it would be overshadowed by the performance of an uber greedy and underachieving supplier of security personnel), or the year in which plummeting temperatures and unrelenting rain threatened – but equally spectacularly failed –  to put a damper on the Queen’s historic Diamond Jubilee River Pageant, but also as the last in a long line of exceedingly wet and exceedingly dull summers in the history of these our glorious countries.

Bigger, Stronger, More Powerful – XXL Wind Machines from Trotec

There are times when wind can be the cause of acute embarrassment. We’ve all been there. And although it’s often nothing more than a biological process which sometimes occurs when certain foods are not digested properly or too much air has been swallowed, we have all at some time experienced a situation which we would sooner wish to forget. Yet there are also times when being able to create wind can be of a distinct advantage – an advantage that can give you, your firm or your company the edge over your leading competitors and the rest of the field.

Wind machines are specially developed pieces of professional equipment designed to perform a whole host of different applications in a wide range of different scenarios. They can be used to ventilate shop floors, halls and warehouses, help dry out buildings after water damage, cool machines and production sites or create windswept, atmospheric backdrops on film sets and capture excitingly evocative moments on photo shoots. Wind machines are designed to significantly boost performance and ensure that both your workforce and your goods are properly cared for.

The wind machines from Trotec comfortably fulfil the demands placed on them. Not only are they well engineered, robust and built to last, they are also extremely powerful, stackable and needless to say very affordable. So why would our engineers want to build a bigger, stronger and more powerful model? What more could a wind machine offer in addition to the highly desirable features already mentioned above? Time to hire the TTW 400000 – the strongest, the most powerful, quite simply the most awesome axial fan we have ever built. And a true maker of storms into the bargain!

The BT20 meat thermometer. For a perfect steak or Sunday roast. Every single time.

Trotec Meat Thermometer for the perfect steakIf you are particularly fond of good food – and for many people this translates into a nice juicy steak or burger, an assortment of spicy sausages sizzling happily over a charcoal fire or a mouth-wateringly succulent joint stewing slowly in its own juices – then you are in all probability not one to compromise when it comes to anything as fundamental and essential as tenderness or taste.

Yet despite the sometimes elaborate or even ritualistic lengths that some people go to to ensure that the cut of meat they wish to prepare is as well-hung, marinated, smoked or as seasoned as can be, they often leave perhaps the most important aspect of all – namely when to take the roast, chicken or stew out of the oven or when to whip the sausages, steaks or burgers off the barbecue or grill – to a feeling which they are often keen to put down to intuition or experience but which could arguably be construed as leaving this final, vital culinary detail to little more than pure chance or pot luck.

Be Prepared. With Our Super Cool Air Conditioning Carefree Package

It’s summer! Well, if the calendar is to be believed it is. But with this July on course to being one of the wettest Julys in over a century and with some parts of the country experiencing what would normally be the equivalent of a month’s worth of rainfall in only 24 hours, you could be forgiven for having difficulty warming to the idea that it really is. This time it was the north of England which was most badly hit as residents in Cumbria, Yorkshire and Lancashire had to be airlifted from their homes, cars or caravans or rescued from freak floods which had transformed serene, meandering rivers into raging, terrifying torrents leaving many citizens badly shaken and some properties submerged under as much as six feet of water.

COME ON ENGLAND!

UEFA Euro 2012 Facebook Contest

LOUDER! COME ON ENGLAND!! LOUDER STILL!!! WE WANT TO HEAR YOU!!!!

This year could be our year! The bookies may, not surprisingly perhaps, still be quoting the European and World Cup champions Spain as the top favourites for the Euro 2012, with our arch nemesis Germany – as always the team to beat – not far behind, yet despite Frank Lampard’s thigh injury, Gary Cahill’s double fractured jaw and Gareth Barry’s groin injury, which left an ominous cloud hanging over the tournament and the newly-appointed England manager, Roy Hodgson, with more than just a massive headache, we’re still in with a fantastic chance, up there among the favourites for the illustrious and elusive title, in front of Italy, runners-up in 2004, and Portugal and Poland.

So let’s hear it for our team! And when we say hear it, we really mean hear it! That’s because we are giving you the chance to make your voice heard in a sporting show-down with fans from Germany, Spain and France who will also be taking part in our competition on Facebook and who will be waging a battle of the wits and voices with YOU on their respective pages (Trotec24, Trotec Español, and Trotec France) in an attempt to secure the title. Time then to show those supporters that you not only support the best team in the world, but that you are also the proudest and the loudest fans in the UEFA European Championship 2012!

So what do you have to do? Simply go to Trotec4u on Facebook and post your most momentous cheer, your most rousing chants or that liberating moment when one of our boys blasts the ball into the back of the net or one of our strikers sublimely slips the round leather past the keeper and sends us on our way to the semis and from there to the ultimate goal – the European Championship finals and the Cup!

The four clips which get the most “Likes” until July 1st will win one of four practical Sound Level Meters from Trotec. And with these nifty little devices you can not only measure your most raucous goal celebration…

So let’s hear it for our boys! For our pride and joy. For England. Stand up and be counted! Show the rest of Europe who the loudest fans are! And win a football table or a sound level meter into the bargain!

Let’s hear them lions roar!
“THREE LIONS ON A SHIRT…!!!”

What do band practice and high humidity values have in common?!

Band practice with high humidity values

If there’s one thing that most musicians have in common – apart from their passion for music of course – it’s the love they share for their instruments. It comes as no small surprise then that they are prepared to go to great – sometimes even bizarre – lengths to conserve and protect those instruments that are so dear to them and that they are forever keen to ensure that they are well-treated and also well-kept. This, however, is not always as easy as it may at first seem, as the instruments’ well-being depends significantly on their immediate environment and the indoor climate.

The indoor climate in certain rooms in both older and outlying buildings, as well as the room climate in many cellars and basements where bands or budding musicians practise and hone the skills they have acquired or are still desperate to develop, is not just bad for either the instruments they are playing or the electronic equipment they are using, like amplifiers, speakers and synthesizers for example, it is quite simply downright damaging. And the main reason for this situation is high levels of humidity.

Save money on heating by finding the right humidity levels

Comfort diagram

When it comes to saving energy and heating costs, people can become really creative. Some of them only heat those rooms which they use most. Others get one of those fancy dog draught excluders, or they close all shutters to improve the insulation of their windows. And because for every degree you turn down your heating you save a good 6 % off your next energy bill, they wear a second sweater or a third pair of socks. That is certainly one way of dealing with the problem…

But what most people tend to forget: The apparent air temperature strongly depends on the humidity levels in the room you are in!

This phenomenon can easily be illustrated when you think of the summer holidays. Have you ever been to the tropics? Exactly – the high humidity levels in such areas make the heat almost unbearable. However, when you are in the desert, temperatures seem far more moderate, although they are usually a lot higher.
