CircuitGear CGR-101 7-in-1 USB Test Instrument
The Circuitgear CGR-101 from Audon Electronics is a PC-based instrument that provides the features of seven devices in one USB-powered compact box. The device offers the performance of a two-channel 10-bit 20MSa/sec 2MHz oscilloscope, a two-channel spectrum-analyser, and a 3MHz 8-bit arbitrary-waveform/standard-function generator with eight digital I/O lines. It also functions as a network analyser, a noise generator and a PWM output source. Its ...
Hydraulic Tipping Cylinders Will Last the Life of the Vehicle, if Properly Maintained…. says Peter Smith of Edbro PLC
Hydraulic tipping cylinders are fundamental components to the safe and reliable operation of rigid trucks and trailers. Properly maintained, they will last the life of the vehicle. Unfortunately, maintenance is all too often overlooked, and cylinders suffer abuse in key areas, which can affect both their safety in operation and also their reliability. The core problem seems to be one of time constraints: pressurised schedules that prevent operato...
Altair Announces Keynote Presenters of 5th European HyperWorks Technology Conference

CAD-Embedded CFD Helps Drill Bit Company Solve Erosion Problem
Encore Bits LLC solved a difficult erosion problem in an oilfield drill bit by using FloEFD computational fluid dynamics software from Mentor Graphics Mechanical Analysis (formerly Flomerics) to improve flow around the bit. Salvo made changes in the bit geometry and nozzle configuration that substantially increased its life and enhanced cuttings removal. “CFD helped us understand the problem and guided us as we iterated the design to an optimiz...
Phidgets releases the 1127 – Precision Light Sensor
Phidgets Inc. released today the 1127 – Precision Light Sensor which measures human perceptible light level in lux.
The 1018 PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 now has built-in hardware noise filtering on the Digital Inputs
Phidgets Inc. announced that he new version of the 1018 PhidgetInterfaceKit 8/8/8 now has a Digital Input Hardware Filter that eliminates false triggering from electrical noise. The digital input is filtered by a 2-stage filter, rejecting noise of higher frequency than 1Khz. This filter generally eliminates the need to shield the digital input from inductive and capacitive coupling likely to occur in wiring harnesses.
UNIVERSALLY ADAPTABLE CONTROL HEADS FOR HYGIENIC PROCESS VALVES IN DECENTRALISED AUTOMATION SYSTEMS
Burkert’s new 8681 control head has been developed specially for use with pneumatically controlled hygienic process valves in decentralised automation applications. The Type 8681 compliments Bürkert’s clean line ELEMENT series of control heads, digital positioners and process controllers, for diaphragm, angle seat, globe, ball and butterfly valves, effectively expanding Burkert’s extensive hygienic processing range for the food/beverage an...
Motion Designer GUI software adds trajectory control, analysis and optimisation tools for complex motion profiles
Aerotech’s new Motion Designer software provides an easy-to-use graphical user interface for generating, analysing motion trajectories and also improving the performance of complex motion profiles. The software greatly simplifies trajectory programming and reduces development time where an exact motion profile, simulating a dynamic environment or real-world conditions, needs to be generated. Furthermore, applications requiring optimal performan...
