* Unova Inc. shares fell as much as 7% after the maker of machine tools and wireless scanners said it will earn about 6 cents a share in the second quarter, less than half the average of analysts’ estimates. Woodland Hills-based Unova fell $1 to close at $13.38 on the New York Stock Exchange. Most of the earnings shortfall is because of outdated automated systems that run the company’s Intermec Technologies division. Unova had been expected to earn 14 cents a share in the second quarter, the average estimate of analysts polled by First Call Corp. Instead, results will be “close” to the first-quarter profit of 6 cents.
