Cutting down on costs with new Piezo element assembly
Piezoelectric transducers are made invaluable to modern high tech applications, by their fast response, high bandwidth and force, and virtually unlimited resolution. These modern high tech applications including; flow measurement, distance gauging, bio-medical dispensing and aerosol generation, as well as metrology, semiconductor testing, and aerospace technology.
Waterproof buzzers target high-moisture environments
CUI Devices has expanded its range of waterproof buzzers with three models carrying an IP rating up to IP68 and featuring SPL up to 95dB at 30cm. This makes the CPT‑1495C‑300, CPT‑1495CI‑300 and CPT‑2521C‑500 suited for a range of industrial and outdoor applications where moisture and other environmental contaminants are a concern.
Compact micro buzzers are suited for portable equipment
CUI Devices has announced several additions to its range of micro buzzers. The three models, CMT‑4023S‑SMT, CMT‑5023S‑SMT and CPT‑9019S‑SMT, are housed in compact, surface mount packages as small as 4x4mm. Featuring profile depths as low as 1.9mm and Sound Pressure Levels (SPL) ranging from 65 to 80dB at 10cm, these micro buzzers are suited for a range of portable equipment applications.
Isolated current transducers integrate current conductor
Designed for AC and DC isolated current measurement up to 100KHz, the GHS series of miniature, IC transducers has been announced by LEM. These components offer full isolation despite their small size, integrating the primary conductor for nominal current measurements of 10, 12, 16 or 20A with a measurement span of 2.5 times the nominal current, they are also able to support high overload currents up to 200A peak for short durations (1ms).
'More than a feeling'
Inspired by Ian Waterman; a man with no sense of touch who has to rely solely on sight for control; Tom Carter, CTO and Founder of Ultrahaptics, has created and developed ultrasonic free-space haptics technology. Carter explained at the Ultrahaptics Press Event last month at their offices in Bristol's Enterprise Zone, VR is never going to recreate a truly immersive experience without touch.
Precise high speed torque transducer offers space & cost savings!
As requirements for torque measurement increase in terms of speed and precision, the T40HS torque transducer is the latest offering from HBM to provide a precise solution for high rotational speeds up to 45,000 rpm.
Level sensing technologies
One of the most common functions for process control is level sensing, but it also uses a wide range of technologies to achieve the same goal. Therefore it is important to select the correct design for each application to ensure a reliable and accurate system.Bürkert UK’s, Midlands Area Technical Sales and Sensors worker, Greg Wainhouse, explained some of the various designs which are available.
European Conference on Integrated Optics 2017
In 2017 The European Conference on Integrated Optics return to Eindhoven at the Science Park of the Technical University of Eindhoven. They will retain the same clear focus on leading edge research, providing a forum for experts from industry and academia to share the latest new thinking and exchange new insights and findings in the fields of integrated optics, optoelectronics and nanophotonics.
Key sensor advantages shown in India for first time
A regular exhibitor at the Automation India show, Sensor Technology, has gone with the theme of new and developing technologies on their stand at this year’s show in the Bombay Convention and Exhibition Centre.Sensor Technology will be showing extensions to its LoadSense range, an updates version of its ORT 230/240 range, at the show taking place, 22-25th August 2016.
A feel for bathroom design
The bathroom is not a place we tend to associate with technology but the advent of gesture-based interfaces can change all that. One of the big problems with bathroom controls is that we have to touch them - often with hands covered with soap. Being able to make a gesture to alter the flow of water or change its temperature can make a big difference to usability.
