microComp Quicklatch Ultralight Miniature Connector for Aeronautics
An alternative to the D-subminiature connector, the new microComp Quicklatch is a 100% composite miniature quick connector designed particularly for use on in-flight entertainment screens aboard commercial aircraft. It is 32% smaller and 45% lighter than a D-sub and can save as much as the equivalent of the weight of one passenger on modern civil aircraft. Released just six months ago, the microComp Quicklatch is already being used on Airbus A350...
When The Going Gets Tough...

Non-Destructive Testing - how far should you go
Every day millions of components are produced around the world to help build everything from a simple toy to fighter jets. For every manufacturer involved in the process, a decision must be made on how to test the component to ensure it meets the design criteria. For the vast majority, batch inspection and testing is sufficient, however, where high precision engineering is involved the testing must be exhaustive and comprehensive.
