Select spray applicator for conformal coating applications
Global provider of dispensing, jetting, and coating equipment and technologies, Nordson ASYMTEK, has introduced the new Select Coat SC-350 Select Spray applicator for conformal coating applications. According to the company, the SC-350 delivers superior edge definition and uniform coating thickness at high speeds while accommodating a wide range of fluid viscosities. The edge definition and control of the spray maintain tight keep-out zones ...
Black epoxy potting compounds protect against water and shock
Epoxy potting and encapsulation compounds protect electronic assemblies from many environmental factors such as water, harsh chemicals, physical damage, shock and vibration. Techsil supply potting epoxies from manufacturers MG Chemicals who understand the requirements of the electronics industry and offer a range of high spec solutions.
Plasma systems enable high processing for 3D and wafer-level assembly
Nordson MARCH has introduced the MesoSPHERE Plasma System for very-high throughput processing of 3D and wafer-level packaging processes such as fan-in, fan-out, wafer-level, and panel-level -handling wafers up to 450mm and panels up to 480mm. The MesoSPHERE's new, patented W3 three-axis symmetrical plasma chamber ensures that all areas of the wafer are treated equally and uniformly. Tight control over all process parameters gives highly repeatabl...
Providing reliable solutions for specific identification needs
International electronics manufacturer, Brady, has developed reliable labels and identification solutions that can resist extreme temperatures, chemicals, pressure or friction. These tested labels enable more workplace safety, better troubleshooting, complete traceability and other identification advantages in challenging applications and environments.
Filtration systems provide isolation in hazardous materials
Designed for filtration applications where quick clean downs are required in a multipurpose production site or where hazardous materials are being processed and the risk of operator exposure needs to be minimised, Amazon filters has introduced the SupaClean systems.
Premium range of molded glass vials for injectable solutions
A combination of homogeneous wall thickness and superior cosmetic quality is offered from Clareo vials from SGD Pharma, which for moulded glass Type II is distinctive in the market. The new range offers technical characteristics similar to the vials in the existing range and can replace them without any regulatory change. Once again, SGD Pharma demonstrates with Clareo its expertise in the control of manufacturing process of moulded glass.
Data presented on fatigue resistance of 2YSZ powder
Innovnano has developed a 2%mol Yttria Stabilised Zirconia (2YSZ) powder that offers beneficial properties, such as high flexural strength, ageing resistance and outstanding fracture toughness. This combination means Innovnano 2YSZ performs well under cyclic fatigue conditions.
MAESTRO explores the world in 2D
To see what is driving the exotic behaviour in some atomically thin – or 2D – materials, and find out what happens when they are stacked like Lego bricks in different combinations with other ultrathin materials, scientists want to observe their properties at the smallest possible scales. Enter MAESTRO, a next-generation platform for X-ray experiments at the ALS at the Department of Energy’s Lawrence Berkeley National Labora...
Compact LED-UV spot lamp suitable for adhesive curing
Techsil has introduced the newly launched Hönle LED Spot 40 IC. The LED Spot 40 IC (Integrated Controller) was developed for adhesive curing applications where the emitted light of a LED point source is just not enough for a completely uniform cure but a standard flood unit would be oversized. The compact LED Spot 40 IC is designed for smaller areas where the high intensity LED emitter provides reliable, consistent and homogenous curing of t...
Optical materials could lead to light bending devices
Northwestern University researchers have developed a first-of-its-kind technique for creating entirely new classes of optical materials and devices that could lead to light bending and cloaking devices — news to make the ears of Star Trek’s Spock perk up. Using DNA as a key tool, the interdisciplinary team took gold nanoparticles of different sizes and shapes and arranged them in two and three dimensions to form optically active ...
