BEI Kimco Magnetics recently developed a BLDC motor to meet the challenging high speed requirements for a Turbomolecular Vacuum Pump application. The Turbomolecular pump is widely used in the semiconductor device manufacturing process, which requires highly compressed gases for chemical deposition and implantation. The pump design incorporates the specially designed BEI motor driven turbine rotor, which is capable of operating speeds of up to 7...

Altium announces a comprehensive set of passive components from Würth Elektronik is available for Altium Designer 10 through the recently launched AltiumLive portal. Electronic designers will have access to eight new libraries comprising over 1,500 passive components provided by one of the leaders of EMC solutions for the electronics industry.

FAULHABER expands its encoder product line with the addition of its PA2-50 and PA2-100. Leading the way again in miniature motor feedback development, FAULHABER now provides high-resolution, low currentdraw optical encoders in different diameters from just 6mm.

Gefran has launched its new ONP1-A magnetostrictive linear position sensor range that features the sensor and automation specialists recently patented ONDA magnetic sensitive element measurement system.

Putnam Plastics Corporation, a leader in advanced extrusions for minimally invasive medical devices, has developed a proprietary process for manufacturing custom monofilament fibers up to 0.100 inches (2.54 mm) in diameter from performance materials such as nylon and polypropylene. Oriented, large diameter fibers offer substantial strength properties to replace metals in applications that require x-ray transparency or non-magnetic properties for...

“They didn’t reinvent the wheel, but they found a way to it.” That’s how Bryce Simons, Materials Testing Engineer in charge of laboratory operations for New Mexico Department of Transportation (DOT), describes how Tinius Olsen streamlined his workflow process and cut both frustration and time-consuming methods from his day.

Variohm EuroSensor has launched a new software application for communication and programming of Contelec Vert-X series non-contacting and contactless angle sensors. As the exclusive UK distributor for the Swiss manufactured range, Variohm offer OEMs the ability to reconfigure and customise the sensor curve and output characteristics over its 0º to 360º measurement range.

Wachendorff WDGA series CANopen absolute magnetic rotary encoders from Variohm EuroSensor feature a 12-bit singleturn and 12-bit + 18-bit multiturn resolution and are ideally suited to applications where high accuracy measurement, extreme durability and competitive pricing are of prime concern. The WDGA uses Wachendorff's patented EnDra® technology with an integral 32-bit processor which assigns a unique coded magnetic signal for each of the i...

USA based Adaptive Creations faced many challenges while designing its Power Caster Fishing System for severely disabled persons. One such challenge was designing a Sip-and-Puff system to allow reliable control of its revolutionary fully automated fishing machine.

The massive KMT Lidköping VTG4000 grind-turn machine enables high precision wind turbine bearing production on a very large scale, with Renishaw encoders critical to accurate and rapid operation.
