Graco has announced that its PR70 Meter, Mix and Dispense Systems are now configurable with flow control and servo motor options, expanding their capacity to produce highly accurate and consistent beads in adhesive and sealant applications.

All mechanical systems in the real world experience some level of shock and vibration and these forces can take their toll on products (and people). Therefore, design engineers have always had a driving interest in finding ways to better understand our world in motion. California-based Diversified Technical Systems (DTS) look into the technology that is available in order to do this.

A unique new family of acceleration and tip-over sensor components that includes four new sensors, the MXD6240 and 41AU, MXC6244AU, MXC6245XU has been announced by MEMSIC.

The complete range of inductive eddy current technology of The Measuring Division of Kaman Precision Products, in the design and manufacture of high performance, precision non-contact position measuring systems, will be highlighted atSensors Expo and Conference, which will be held 21stto 23rdJune, 2016 at the McEnery Convention Center, in San Jose, CA, Booth #836.

Researchers from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign have demonstrated doping-induced tunable wetting and adhesion of graphene, revealing unique opportunities for advanced coating materials and transducers. "Our study suggests for the first time that the doping-induced modulation of the charge carrier density in graphene influences its wettability and adhesion," explained SungWoo Nam, an assistant professor in the Department of Mechani...

Morgan Advanced Materials has applied its world-leading ultrasonic transducer technology to water purification, helping to deliver components which improve performance in wastewater applications. New processes using high-intensity ultrasound waves to break down bacterial biomass found in impurities in water, have become increasingly popular in recent times.

HARTING has announced a range of current transformers developed in close collaboration with key the companies in wind energy plant construction to specifically meet key ‘alternative energy industry’ requirements. The product development has been focused on good functional reliability and high mechanical stability. The result is accurate feed control with high levels of precision.

The technology company, Cocoon, is transforming the home security market by designing beautiful products that help people feel safe. It won silver at the 2014 London Design awards and recently secured a £2m investment from Aviva Ventures and Breed Reply Investments.

Sensor technology has set new benchmark performance standards for optical rotary torque transducers, with the launch of the digital ORT 230/240 series. These new optical rotary torque sensors are ideal for applications when the demand is for low torque and/or high bandwidth, providing precise, dynamic measurement of rotary and static torque less than 100Nm and for bandwidths of up to 50kHz.

Developing and evaluating motion-capture technology to help older adults "age in place" has been the focus of researchers at the University of Missouri for more than a decade. Previous research has utilised video game technology and various web-cameras to detect health changes in Tiger Place residents. Now, two new studies demonstrate how monitoring walking speed using radar and heart health by utilising bed sensors help maintain older adults' he...
