Best practice in managing a product's end of life
Apple’s announcement in November 2018 that it was to cease the reporting of iPhone sales volumes really worried investors. A flattening of sales, combined with doubts over Apple’s projected innovation, impacted on its stock price. Around the same time, Chinese tech giant, Huawei, beat it into third place on smartphone sales and even set their sights on surpassing the leader, Samsung, with promises of foldable screens and artificial in...
Taking crane braking to new heights
A crane may not use its brakes often, but when the need arises, they must be able to operate with the complete reliability. It’s a quality that Stromag, a brand of Altra Industrial Motion, designs into its turnkey crane braking packages. As a result, Stromag braking systems are the solution of choice for several crane OEMs around the world.
Components provide custom locking solution for smartboards
Vestel is a leading global manufacturer of household and B2B appliances and devices so when responding to a national tender from the Ministry of Education to install Smartboards in schools in Turkey, Essentra Components were delighted to support Vestel by providing a custom locking solution to ensure the safety and security of the product and its users.
Buttons and switches addressing design needs
Touchscreens and membrane switches are useful for visual and low-profile control panels. However, some applications require designers to emphasise safety, ease of access, the switching of high voltages or current, a known configuration at power up, or robustness. For such situations, mechanical switches and buttons are often ideal, but designers need to choose carefully. Rich Miron, Applications Engineer at Digi-Key Electronics, explains.
Fail-safe versus maintenance bypass/isolation switches
This white paper explains the differences between fail-safe and maintenance bypass/isolation switches and reviews the advantages and disadvantages of each. The white paper deals only with the bypass function, which must not be confused with open- or closed-transition automatic or manual transfer switching.
