Flexible cable tie mount enables quick and easy routing
The latest HellermannTyton product, the self-adhesive and flexible FlexTack cable tie mount, has been added toConrad Business Supplies' portfolio. The flexible mount enables quick and easy routing of cables on curved or angled surfaces.The special design of the FlexTack cable tie mount makes specifying the optimum pathway for wiring or tubes along or across curved surfaces simple.
TVS diodes help overcome transient surges in vehicles
Now available in Europe through TTI are SLD8S Series Automotive SMT Transient Voltage Suppression (TVS) Diodes from Littelfuse offering a choice of 7000W (10/1000μs) or 2200W (load dump) peak pulse power dissipation ratings in a surface mount SMTO-263 package. The high peak pulse power dissipation ratings enable power systems to pass the ISO test standards that are widely used in the automotive industry as the basis for transient specification...
True green LEDs come in compact surface mount package
The Optoelectronics group of Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a series of true green LEDs in a compact surface-mount 0603 ChipLED package. Measuring 1.6mm by 0.8mm with an ultra-thin 0.55mm profile, the VLMTG1400 series devices utilize the most recent ultrabright InGaN chip technology to achieve luminous intensity up to 2,800mcd.
Swage mount PCB pins suit interconnect applications
Mill-Max has added to its diverse mix of swage mount PCB pins with six new offerings designed for interconnect applications. These swage mount terminals are designed to be mechanically fastened to a board or panel and plugged into sockets or soldered into mating boards in board stacking and other interconnect configurations.Swage pins are often thought of as wire-to-board soldering terminals and test points or as hardware such as PCB standoffs, b...
Next-generation of engineers supported by BOFA
Weymouth College engineering students and apprentices are set to benefit from world-class fume extraction technology donated by BOFA International as part of the company’s 30th anniversary celebrations.The filtration systems – three twin-arm solder fume extraction units – are being given to the college by the Poole-based company, which recently won a Queen’s Award for Innovation, for use in a new mechatronics facility.
ETAL unveils UK R&D Centre
ETAL Group is opening a UK Research and Development Centre with a fast turnaround prototyping and small batch facility in Lewes, East Susex. It has also appointed Andrew Adams as R&D Manager.

SMD PCB terminals improve designing and wiring of LED modules
Two SMD PCB terminal block variants from WAGO offer engineers unrivalled flexibility while maximising time savings and minimising space. Used with LED modules and optical systems, the 2075 Series and 2065 Series incorporate push-wire connection for quick, hands-free wiring.The 2075 Series through-board SMD PCB terminal block allows installers to connect conductors on the back of the LED modules, vertically to the PCB, while maximising space for l...
Sensors technology integration enhances strain gauges
Proprietary Advanced Sensors Technology has been successfully integrated into strain gauge products by the Micro-Measurements brand of Vishay Precision Group. Advanced Sensors Technology applies tangible specification and manufacturing process improvements, along with industry-exclusive strain gage sensor design techniques, for direct customer benefit.
Switches improve design of wearable electronics
A new series of switches has been announced by C&K, aimed at giving designers of portable electronics the low profile, reliable and long-lasting switches they need to power the next-gen of devices. C&K’s KXT3 series were built to meet the specific needs of those engineers creating hearing aids, smart watches, activity trackers, action cameras and gesture controllers.
Soldering station added to rework tool range
A series of new workbench equipment, including a soldering station, a pair of rework stations and a fume extractor has extended the RS Pro range of rework tools. These devices target repair work in production facilities, as well as in service environments or for engineers and technicians working in laboratories.
