Renishaw has announced the launch of a successor to its well established QC10 ballbar system; a tool adopted worldwide for the assessment of machine tool positioning and servo control performance.

Multitest’s ECT Interface Product Division conducted a study to analyze the effects of spring probes on load board pads. In the high-volume production testing of semiconductors, test cell cost and reliability are very important to control. ATE load boards are critical test cell components and test contactors must not damage the load board pads. Multitest’s flat-technology Mercury® contactors virtually eliminate PCB pad damage.

Multitest announces that it has been awarded a Global Technology Award in the category of Components for its DURA® Kelvin™. The award was presented to the company during a Tuesday, October 26, 2010 ceremony that took place during SMTA International at the Walt Disney World Swan and Dolphin Resort in Orlando, FL.

Understanding the full characteristics of fluid flow through porous structures, such as rock, is essential for applications including oil extraction from petroleum reservoirs, environmental testing and groundwater analysis. However, fluid flow through porous media is very complex and difficult to analyse. The pore space within the rock is not only difficult to access but often characterised by parameters like connectivity and tortuosity which are...

The new scanning system will be used for verifying aluminum mold tooling prior to production runs

Microscan, announces the recent expansion of their NERLITE® machine vision lighting product line. The portfolio now includes approximately 300 standard lighting configurations in multiple geometries, sizes, and wavelengths.

Telegent Systems, the company that makes television mobile, today outlined its roadmap for driving new industry standards for best-in-class picture quality, system cost and power consumption in the analog TV receiver market. Telegent’s roadmap builds on its market leadership position, with the company having shipped more than 90 million free-to-air mobile TV chips into handsets sold globally since pioneering the technology in mid-2007. Tele...

Nexen Group Inc. announces RB Series, Generation II linear profile guide rail brakes for stopping and holding in e-stop and power-off situations. RB Series brakes deliver the highest spring engaged/air released holding force on the market, providing secure holding and fast response time for a broad range of linear motion control applications. Each rail brake clamps directly onto the center of the guide rail to provide positive braking and holding...

Delta Air Lines uses the MAXOS non-contact measurement system from NVision in its contract maintenance operations to achieve the highest possible accuracy in overhauling turbine blades and vanes. The traditional method of measuring blades and vanes to determine the level of repair required and to inspect subsequent repairs involves a series of manual measurements. “We have substantially improved on the traditional approach by using the MAXOS to...

Aircraft Technologies saved $20,000 and four weeks in reduced tooling costs/time for a new model by utilizing NVision’s laser scanning and engineering services. “By scanning an existing upper and lower bowl assembly and modifying the resulting CAD models to fit parts that we already had tooling for, we substantially reduced the tooling cost and got the product to market faster,” said Mark Riebesehl, Owner and Vice President of Operations fo...
