As reliance on communication and weather satellites grows and space research expands in scope and mission, new technology is required to help speed spaceflight system design and production. Microchip Technology has announced the expansion of its SA50-120 power converter family with nine new units based on its Commercial Off-the-Shelf (COTS) technology. This technology provides developers with space-qualified power converters that help to minimise...

The world’s firsthybridchain is now available in two new sizes - designed by igusfor construction machinery and lifting equipment.TheseYE hybrid chains, made of polymer and steel, are 50% lighter than conventional steelchainsand can safely move large hydraulic hoses and high fill weights vertically on both mobile crane platforms and construction machinery.

An industrial robotics company is continuing to breathe new life into old robots - thanks to a newly designed product from igus. The global manufacturer ofenergy chain systemsandpolymer plain bearings, igus, was asked for a control panel cable management system by the team from robotics company, ARAGON.

The DALI Alliance (DiiA) has announced the winners of the inaugural DALI Lighting Awards during a virtual ceremony. Held in association with arc (the international architectural lighting design magazine) and the International Association of Lighting Designers (IALD), the awards celebrate the best use of DALI control solutions in international lighting projects as well as recognising the value of delivering quality illumination to clients and end-...

Racal Acoustics, the UK-based global designer and manufacturer of audio communications and protection systems has announced a new contract to supply the Danish Ministry of Defence Acquisition and Logistics Organisation (DALO), with their RA4000 Magna digital headset system.

A new plug-in connector by igus has won an ‘Excellent Product Design’ award in the German Design Awards 2021. The new igus Module Connect Adapter, praised by judges for its innovation, has been designed to suit limited spaces where a large number of plugged-in cables, such as fibre, optic, electric and encoder cables, need to be connected together.

Manned space missions in spacecraft made of aluminium that is light yet resistant to radiation could be a step nearer following research involving the University of Huddersfield.The MIAMI-2 – Microscopes and Ion Accelerators for Materials Investigations – facility has helped Dr Matheus Tunes investigate a new alloy that will harden aluminium without increasing its weight significantly.

Microchip Technology has announced its newly-qualified 700 and 1200V SiC Schottky Barrier Diode (SBD) power devices, providing Electric Vehicle (EV) system designers with solutions that meet stringent automotive quality standards across a wide range of voltage, current and package options.

The technology group Wärtsilä has received a repeat energy storage system order totalling 90MW/90MWh from an existing South East Asian customer. The solution will provide much needed flexibility and reliable grid support and will allow the further integration of energy from renewable sources, such as solar and wind power.

Farnell has agreed a new global franchise with Industrial Shields, a developer and manufacturer of industrial automation devices (PLCs and Panel PCs) based on open source hardware from Raspberry Pi and Arduino.
