By making significant upgrades to its pressure transmitters/transducers offering,West Control Solutions continues to support its long established process controller product line.Based on either thin-film or micro-electro-mechanical system (MEMS) sensing technologies, these high performance devices have been introduced through the company’s PMA product range.
Developing next-gen technologies for EV powertrains
Wireless rotary torque transducers from Sensor Technology are at the heart of a test rig to develop next-gen technologies for electric and hybrid vehicle powertrains. With expertise in the electric motors and electronics used across the key powertrain technologies, AVID Technology relies on the innovative torque transducers as part of an automated approach to motor characterisation.
Chemical engineers talk sense about mixer efficiencies
The School of Chemical Engineering and Analytical Sciences at Manchester University is developing technology in energy efficiency in the process industries, and researchers have incorporated TorqSense transducers into a test rig that is analysing losses in in-line mixers.
Aqueous system chosen to clean nuclear components
Derbyshire-based Paul Fabrications, a Unitech Aerospace company, has been used for both aqueous and solvent systems for a long time to wash machined, pressed and fabricated stainless steel components for its customer, Springfields Fuels, near Preston, which supplies fuel pellets for advanced gas-cooled reactors in the UK.
Wireless sensors keep marine steering on course
TorqSense wireless sensors from Sensor Technology are playing an important role in new product development for Hydraulic Projects Limited (Hy-Pro), one of the UK’s developers and suppliers of hydraulic drive units for marine steering and autopilot systems. The sensors, which accurately measure shaft torque in rotary drive systems, are providing the essential data that Hy-Pro needs to refine the design of the electrically powered pump assemb...
App-based ultrasound system receives FDA clearance
Healcerion, based in South Korea, was the first company to receive FDA clearance for their wireless, app-based ultrasound system back in 2015. The work done by South Korean engineers and scientists laid the foundation for the development of an ultrasound transducer that works with most smartphones or tablets. Since introducing the SONON 300C convex transducer, the company has been making progress to further advance this branch of ultrasound devic...
