Author: Stefanie Jenkins
Shuttle is one of the most prolific SFF PC makers around. The company is most known for all of the barebones kits that it offers that let the buyer complete the system with their own hardware. Over the last few months, Shuttle has been offering more and more complete PCs.
The latest of these complete PCs is the X350 Slim PC. The little machine uses NVIDIA ION graphics. The tiny machine is 1.5-inches thick and designed for people with little space. The machine is so small that it can be mounted behind a PC display or TV.
The machine also features an Intel Atom D510 CPU, a slim optical drive, and 1080p HDMI output is optional. Shuttle will start taking orders for the slim PC this week at undisclosed pricing.

ABB Robotics – Picking and packing salami snacks
Author: Stacey Cook
High-speed ABB FlexPicker robots equipped with specially developed grippers are making sure that Peperami salamis are packaged at the highest cycle rates at Unilever’s plant in Ansbach, Germany. The robots are fitted with triple grippers which are able to pick up three randomly positioned salami snacks one after the other from a conveyor belt in a one step process, and place them individually in a rollstock machine. The positioning and location data required comes from an upstream image processing system which is positioned to capture the information on the individual sausages and pass it on to a master computer. Unilever commissioned ABB Robotics partner, robomotion GmbH from Stuttgart, to plan and design the fully automated solution; and install and commission the entire system at Unilever within 10 days. “This high-speed technology is not only of interest in the foodstuffs sector, as it can be used anywhere where small items have to be handled at high speeds” says Andreas Wolf, a director of robomotion. Unilever’s chief engineer, Carim Gad, concludes “With the new system, we’re running the packaging machine at full capacity, giving us a performance increase of up to 25 percent compared with manual loading. The ability to cover peak loads is of particular interest. For example, in the run-up to the Football World Cup, special production shifts were operating at the weekend. This alone gave us a competitive edge, enabling us to deliver Peperamis to our customers on …

Dell Inspiron M501R seen packing quad-core AMD Phenom II X4 CPU, ATI 550v GPU
Author: Stefanie Jenkins
Well, would you look at this? Dell’s not-at-all-boisterous launch of numerous R-rated Inspirons left us with far more questions than answers (you know what we mean, J.J. Abrams?), but now things are starting to come together somewhat. We’re guessing some of the mystique surrounding the M501R has to do with the power plant within, because so far as we can tell, AMD has never shipped a Phenom II X4 within a laptop. Sure enough, this here machine can be ordered up with a quad-core X4, and while prices and the like aren’t yet available (the order process seems to be borked for now), we do know that this particular model will ship with a 720p 15.6-inch display, Windows 7, an optional 1GB ATI Mobility Radeon HD 550v (another new one to us), WiFi, up to 8GB of DDR3 RAM, four color options and a total weight of 5.83 pounds. C’mon Dell / AMD — why not just spill the beans already? Our trigger finger can only itch for so long.
