NanoKTN Announces Nanomission 2010
The Nanotechnology Knowledge Transfer Network (NanoKTN) today announced its next Nanomission to Germany and Switzerland on 2nd-5th March 2010. This mission will focus on developments in production processes for manufacturing nanomaterials and nanocoatings for renewable energy applications.
RELY Research Project: New Ways of Chip Design Methodology
Germany’s foreign trade success is determined to an ever-increasing degree by the quality and reliability of high-tech products. Seven partners from the German business and research communities are teaming up in the three-year “RELY” project to explore ways of enhancing the quality, reliability and resilience of modern microelectronic systems. The focus will be on applications in transportation, in particular electromobility, in medical tec...
Energy chain E6 low noise and vibration RWTH Aachen tests vibration behaviour of energy chains
Energy chains are used in production equipment, robots and tooling machines to guide and protect cables and hoses. Sometimes vibration can occur on the support channel and at the towing arm during the movement. The laboratory for tooling machines (WZL) and business operations RWTH Aachen carried out a study: vibration investigations on energy chains. The results were that the E6 energy chain from igus® stood out due to minimum vibration and maxi...
The Latest Manufacturing Methods For Photovoltaic Modules Will Be On Show At LASER World of PHOTONICS 2011
Optoelectronic systems are being used to an increasing extent in the manufacture of photovoltaic (PV) modules and are helping greatly to increase production efficiency. In particular, laser technology is proving its superiority in processes such as material removal, fusion, soldering, welding and drilling. Lasers have become indispensable tools, especially in the manufacture of thin-layer solar cells. Manufacturers are therefore profiting directl...
