A look into the future of connection technology
In Velden (Austria), AT&S has presented technologies and trends in connection solutions at the 14th AT&S Technology Forum. Numerous interested customers were able to find out about the latest developments in the electronics and printed circuit board industry for areas such as mobile devices, automotive, industrial, communications and medical technology and to exchange views with the AT&S experts.
How IoT is changing the world of sports and health
This blog is the last of a five-part series that looks at theimpact of the IoT onsociety.Experts say that an Olympic gold medal begins with good genes. Author:Elly SchietseDirector of Wireless Connectivity Business Unit, Qorvo.
Flowmeters measure flow of low viscosity fluids
The latest turbine flowmeterrange from Titan Enterprises is based on a radial flow technique and provides a suitable way for accurately measuring the flow of low viscosity liquids.Classic turbine flowmeters use propeller type turbines in a closed circular conduit. The turbine is mounted on low friction bearings and its rotation is detected through the chamber wall by one of a variety of detector types.
New tap designed to meet high requirements of automotive industry
A new thread forming tap has been launched by Sandvik Coromant, which is optimised for ISO P steel machining and is designed to boost productivity, particularly in the automotive industry. The CoroTap 400 achieves this by offering chip-free tapping as well as faster machining times and stronger threads through reduced torque and an optimised geometry.
All-directional turning goes inside out
After the launch of the of PrimeTurning methodology and tools last year for external turning operations, Sandvik Coromant is now introducing a dedicated CoroTurn Prime SL head that makes this process available for internal turning operations. The new SL head will cater for the needs of oil and gas, aerospace and other manufacturers machining diameters in excess of 90mm (3.5”), and overhangs up to 8-10xD.
High power density systems demand high current converters
Steve Knoth, Senior Product Marketing Engineer, Power Products at Linear Technology now part of Analog Devices discusses here how high power density systems demand high current converters. The expanding market for high current, low voltage digital ICs reached $9.2bn in 2016. This group of digital ICs includes microcontrollers and microprocessors (µC & µP), programmable logic devices (PLDs), digital signal processors (DSPs), applic...
BTB pin jumpers designed for maximum tolerance absorption
AVXhas released a new series of pin jumpers designed for board-to-board (BTB) and module-to-module connections in solid-state lighting (SSL) and other low-pin-count industrial applications. When used in conjunction with thenew 2.5mm 70-9296 Series STRIPT horizontal, poke-home contact without a wire stop- which is both the first industrial poke-home connector available without an integral wire stop and, currently, the only industrial poke-home con...
3D printed metamaterials for sound and vibration control
Researchers have been pushing the capabilities of materials by carefully designing precise structures that exhibit abnormal properties that can control acoustic or optical waves. However, these metamaterials are constructed in fixed geometries, meaning their unique abilities are always fixed. Now, new 3D printed metamaterial developed by a team led by USC Viterbi researchers can be remotely switched between active control and passive states.
High tech drive chains make steel looper tower accumulator reliable
To improve the longterm operational productivity of its annealing line,Tsubakimoto has helped a steel mill in the Netherlands byreplacing lifting chains that failed frequently with ones that have proven to have a working life of 10-15 years or even longer.
Manufacturing the impossible with photo chemical etching
For designers looking to manufacture burr and stress free metal parts with complex geometries, maintain the flexibility to make last minute design changes, and mass produce prototypes quickly, photo chemical etching is increasingly seen as the answer. Chemical etching offers both an economical and efficient solution, and allows for the mass production of incredibly intricate, thin metal parts at a fraction of the cost of other methods.
