Schroff Titan ATR Series is extra robust and highly flexible
For particularly high shock and vibration requirements of up to 40 g Pentair has developed the Schroff Titan ATR system family. Based on its modular 19" subracks, which is an established platform for all levels of ruggedness up to about 25 g, the Titan ATR system is suitable for civil and military aviation and space applications, including use on unmanned aircraft and helicopters, as well as other mobile equipment such as tanks or trains.
Shedding New Light on the 'Electron Highways' of Organic Solar Cells
Sunlight absorbed by organic solar cells must first navigate a nanoscale gauntlet before becoming useable electricity. After hitting the light-absorbing material of the solar cell, called the photoactive layer, absorbed sunlight excites electrons, freeing them to find their way through a maze filled with twists, turns, dead-ends, and collisions. Only the free charges that successfully make it through this maze can be used in a circuit as electric...
Plextek Consulting and Hethel Innovation collaboration to inspire better cross-pollination of technology ideas
Plextek Consulting has today formalised a partnership with Hethel Innovation to stimulate a collaborative innovation process and champion the cross-pollination of technology ideas. Rather than waiting for light-bulb moments, true innovators today look at other sectors and apply existing technologies in unexpected ways. By working together Plextek Consulting and Hethel Innovation hope to nurture an ecosystem that creates opportunities for cross-se...
Nanotechnology increases global dimensional metrology equipment demand
Frost & Sullivan have today announced a new report, Analysis of the Global Dimensional Metrology Market in Electronic Manufacturing. Advancements in nanotechnologies have increased the global demand for high-precision dimensional metrology equipment in electronic manufacturing.

Food and beverage industry to increase demand for sensors
Frost & Sullivan have today announced a new analysis, “Sensors Market in the Global Food and Beverage Industry”. The report finds that the market earned approximately $2,891.5 million in 2012 and estimates this to reach $4,157.8 million in 2018. The research covers flow, level, pressure, temperature, photoelectric, inductive, capacitive, ultrasonic sensors and biosensors.
Smarter than the competition
The market requires highest flexibility from electronics manufacturers. Placement speed not only influences production cost but also the networking, integration, simulation capabilities and machine capacities. SMART Solution from Essemtec is the world’s first modular system that enables complete optimization of SMT production. By Adrian Kühnis, Azular GmbH, Switzerland.
