E-chain system now available for rapid configuration and delivery
Offering a space-saving and cost-effective solution for applications requiring vertically suspended cable management, igus now offer standard ‘zig-zag’ energy chain modules. Suitable for stage technology and hydraulic aerial work platforms, this innovative solution was previously available as a custom order, but new standardised, modular designs enable faster delivery and lower cost.
Noise-cancelling technology selected for its stylish headphones
AS3435 active noise cancellation IC from ams provides more than 28dB of noise attenuation and very low harmonic distortion in on-ear head-phones.The ams noise-cancelling technology is an integral component in the FIIL Diva Pro high-end headphones which recently won a CES 2017 Innovation Award.
Everything's relative: Renowed genius lends his weight to refrigeration system
The team at SolarCool Energy are drawing inspiration from one of Albert Einstein’s inventions to produce a refrigeration system that even seasoned engineers in the refrigeration industry didn’t believe was physically possible. SolarCool’s Sales Director, Roger Shenton, said how its approach can reduce energy requirements in commercial refrigeration by up to 70%.
Record time revamp in Russia
SMS group has been granted the final acceptance certificate for the modernised tandem cold mill ‘2100’, by steel producer PAO Severstal at the Cherepovets facility in northwest Russia, and the revamp was completed in a short time.The mill upgrade by SMS group comprised the complete replacement of the entry section and the four mill stands, and the installation of rolling technologies of the latest generation.
Researchers demonstrate latest type of laser
A team of researchers led by Leo Kouwenhoven at TU Delft has demonstrated an on-chip microwave laser based on a fundamental property of superconductivity, the ac Josephson effect. They embedded a small section of an interrupted superconductor, a Josephson junction, in a carefully engineered on-chip cavity. Such a device opens the door to many applications in which microwave radiation with minimal dissipation is key, for example in controlling qub...
Self-assembly technique could lead to smaller microchip patterns
For the last few decades, microchip manufacturers have been on a quest to find ways to make the patterns of wires and components in their microchips ever smaller, in order to fit more of them onto a single chip and thus continue the relentless progress toward faster and more powerful computers. That progress has become more difficult recently, as manufacturing processes bump up against fundamental limits involving, for example, the wavelengths of...
Phenomenon accelerates electrons as they enter a viscous state
A finding by physicists at MIT and in Israel shows that under certain specialised conditions, electrons can speed through a narrow opening in a piece of metal more easily than traditional theory says is possible.
Impedance measuring system for Li-ion battery
Ahead of embedded world 2017, Rutronik has teamed up with Chemnitz University of Technology to demonstrate that impedance spectroscopy for lithium-ion batteries is not just restricted to the laboratory.
Anti-counterfeiting event heads for London
The agenda for the 8th Anti-Counterfeiting Forum seminar, which is to be held on Wednesday 22nd March at the Grange Rochester Hotel in central London, already has a strong line up of informative and topical presentations.
Noel Tech adds latest wafer-processing capabilities
Noel Technologies has expanded its wafer-fabrication facility in Silicon Valley by adding square footage and installing additional equipment that boost its production capacity by 25%. With additions including an i-line lithography system with 0.35-micron resolution, a top-down CD scanning electron microscope (SEM) and more plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD) tools, the 20-year-old company has increased its range of foundry services ...
