100 million random moves for rotary micro stage with integral controller
New Scale Technologies has significantly increased the lifetime specification for its M3-RS-U Rotary Smart Stage, a precision rotary micro stage with embedded controller. The new specification of 100 million random positions underscores the utility of these compact, all-in-one motion modules for integrating embedded motion inside in medical, commercial and industrial instruments.
LED emitter boasts spot diameter of 7mm
A compact, infrared LED emitter with the industry’s largest spot diameter of 7mm for super-reliable optical sensing and position encoder applications has been released by TT Electronics. With up to 10mW total radiated power at the maximum drive current of 100mA, and 2.25° angle of half intensity, the OP207CL couples optical flux extremely efficiently onto the receiving photo-sensor to ensure clearly detectable on/off transitions.
Research shows studying STE(A)M is a good investment
Students studying science, technology, engineering, (arts) and maths [STE(A)M] subjects show good returns on the time and money they invest according to a recently released study. The study by labour market data experts Emsi said that students studying STE(A)M in FY2016/17 could expect a 13.4% average annual return on their investment over their career employment.
