Schurter AG Articles
Why resistive multitouch?
The PCAP technology is currently the most common input medium for multitouch applications. However, there are certain applications that still require resistive touch technology. What is the reason for choosing the resistive multi-touch technology? In which applications will it be used?
UHS: safe tripping high currents in the SELV range
SELV stands for ‘Safety Extra Low Voltage.’ The term sounds self-explanatory and harmless, but it comes with complications.
FRM-A and DRM-A: for demanding requirements in avionics
SCHURTER addresses avionic industry needs with the FRM-A and DRM-A fuse holder/fuse combination.
The first Smart Products from SCHURTER
SCHURTER presents the first products of the new Smart Products range.
When is optical bonding a must-have?
Optical bonding has established itself in industry and medicine and is a technically mature method of HMI display optimisation.
SCHURTER launches a new very compact filter series
SCHURTER launches a new very compact filter series with the 5121 appliance inlet filter. An IEC C14 inlet is surrounded by a closed metal housing and thus effectively shields the mains input. The new filter series is available as a standard or medical technology version for a rated current up to 10 A / 15 A with wire connections.
Customised wire harness
Wire harnessing is the production of ready-to-connect cables, cable bundles and complete wire harnesses with connectors, contacts, or wire end sleeves.
Sustainable Innovation at SCHURTER
Devices and products that are connected directly to the Internet are becoming more and more prevalent in our everyday lives. The development of IoT allows manufacturers to make their products smart. The SCHURTER Smart Platform, which includes a cloud, user app and device firmware, provides the foundation for developing further products.
Single phase block filter with ground choke
SCHURTER is expanding the successful FMAB NEO single-phase filter family with new variants.
3-phase block filters for machine applications
Schurter is expanding the FMBC EP and FMBD EP 3-phase filter families with new variants for machine applications.
THR: Through hole technology for the reflow oven
Electrical and electronic components come in a wide variety of sizes and mounting technologies. The classic is the through hole technology (THT). Its modern counterpart is the surface-mounting technology (SMT).
SCHURTER 6080 with cordset
Protection against dirt particles and moisture is becoming increasingly important. With the product type 6080 and the associated V-Lock power cable, SCHURTER is launching an IP54 device connection that also meets high demands.
Thermal fuse with low tripping temperature
SCHURTERS RTS thermal fuse, successfully launched in 2018, gets a new variant with a tripping temperature of >175°C
Capacitive switch for hidden installation
Conventional switches inevitably require mounting holes in the user interface. Not so with the new SCHURTER CHS. With the ability to be mounted behind the surface of non-conductive materials means the CHS is therefore invisible.
Hydraulic vs electric in aviation
With the electrification of the automotive industry, the ambition quickly arose to transfer this to aviation to the same extent. Hydraulic systems give way to electric ones. The system's supply voltage increases to allow for greater ranges thanks to reduced mass.
Optical bonding of e-paper displays
Optical bonding enables the connection of touch sensor, cover glass and display into one unit by means of different technologies and processes. Just as with optical bonding of TFT LC displays, this finishing process can also be applied to e-paper displays.
Displays for HMI solutions from Schurter
SCHURTER has announced that it now offers its customers complete HMI solutions with the right display to meet all desired requirements. With the company’s knowledge and extensive sourcing channels, it has selected the optimal display for the customer's application.
Solutions for high EMC requirements
Touch panel products for the European market must comply with European directives and be CE certified. An essential requirement is that these products meet the requirements for electromagnetic compatibility (EMC). But which are these?
Piezoelectric switches re-certified according to ATEX/IECEx
Piezoelectric switches are particularly tough. They are hermetically sealed and have no mechanical switching contacts. The production site of the SCHURTER PSE EX has just been re-certified according to ATEX/IECEx. The switches of the SCHURTER PSE EX family feature aluminium or stainless-steel housings.
FMBB EP single phase block filter brings high performance
SCHURTER has completed its portfolio of ultra-compact single-phase filters with a new generation of particularly high-performance thanks to a double stage filter design. FMBB EP is the name of the latest member in the completely closed steel housing.
