India introduced a quota system in 2022-2023 to limit sugar exports to some 6 mn tons after production dropped due to late rains, down from 11 mn tons a year earlier, the outlet writes. The restrictions extend to shipments of organic sugar, the outlet adds. The extension \u2014 which aims to cool down India\u2019s domestic prices \u2014 is a blow to manufacturers of fizzy drinks, chocolates, and baked products, who rely on the world\u2019s second biggest sugar producer for supplies, the outlet writes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>I<\/strong><strong>ndia wants to become a top-five shipbuilding and repair nation within 10 years<\/strong>, according to a <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/narendramodi\/status\/1714269509304127914?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw%7Ctwcamp%5Etweetembed%7Ctwterm%5E1714269509304127914%7Ctwgr%5E102658a28704827cbf7982223ee0f9e79b3b5ef4%7Ctwcon%5Es1_&ref_url=https%3A%2F%2Fsplash247.com%2Findia-sets-out-to-become-a-top-five-shipbuilding-nation-within-a-decade%2F\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">statement<\/a> by India\u2019s Prime Minister Narendra Modi.

The company was initially expected to start production in late 2024 at its Detroit plant. The company reiterated in July its goal of producing 400k EVs between 2022 and 1H 2024, forecasting a total production of 100k EVs in 2H 2023. GM is still set to increase EV production in 2024, introducing a new shift at its Detroit-Hamtramck factory.

The wand-shaped gadget \u2014 dubbed Kirari MUSE \u2014 has <a target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.nyk.com\/english\/news\/2018\/20180221_01.html\" style=\"\" rel=\"noopener\">been in the works for a few years<\/a> and is part of NYK Group\u2019s big data initiative. Nabtesco kicked off sales of the Kiari MUSE on Wednesday, the company statement said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Listening rods have been used to detect engine problems in the past:<\/strong> Elongated metal rods are often used to monitor equipment in factories and on ships. Placing specially designed listening rods on turbines, motors, and other equipment aids in capturing operational sounds without interference from ambient noise, thereby allowing early detection of abnormalities. However, such equipment has been limited in the past in terms of data accumulation and sharing with third parties, the company said.<\/p>\n<p style=\"padding:0;margin:0;line-height:1.15;orphans:2;widows:2;text-align:left\"><strong>Kiari MUSE combines a listening rod with a smartphone + special software to overcome these holdups:<\/strong> The device has a recording function and software that allows the analysis and sharing of sounds with peers. An alarm alerts the user if the sounds analyzed deviate from reference data. The attached smartphone permits users to select the type of device being investigated, record memos during tests, and transfer recorded data to software, the company said.<\/p>\n\t<\/div><!--
