May 7, 2024 In the dynamic realm of electric vehicle (EV) manufacturing, ensuring the utmost quality and reliability of circuit boards is of paramount importance. Omron, a pioneering force in automaton technology, has developed the VT-X850, an innovative CT X_Ray inspection system tailored specifically for EV SMT (surface mount technology) assembly This state-of-the-art machine offers…
As a system engineer, it is important to have a reliable and long-lasting power supply on which you can rely. Failure of the unit after a short time is annoying, costly and time consuming. The minimum lifetime of power supplies is determined by the lifetime of the electrolytic capacitors. The warmer it is, the faster the electrolytic capacitors dry out. Even a temperature rise of +10°C in the power supply cuts in half their service lifetime.
September 16, 2024 When selecting an enclosure for outdoor environments, stainless steel has long been the go-to material. But is it always the best choice? Increasingly, aluminum is being recognized as a viable, often superior option, especially when factoring in weight, durability, cost, and corrosion resistance. Strength and Weight: Why Aluminium Excels While stainless steel…
EnDat is a digital, bidirectional interface for encoders developed by Heidenhain. It can transmit position values from incremental and absolute encoders as well as transmit or update information stored in the encoder. There are several versions of EnDat and it can be confusing to tell them apart. STOBER breaks down the difference between EnDat 2.1 and 2.2.
February 27, 2023 High throughput testing for many upper respiratory tract pathogens thanks to automation technology Fast MDx shows how many pathogens can be detected with unrivalled speed without the need for expensive biosecure laboratories. This near-patient testing system, developed by London-based company Fast MDx, cuts the typical 24 to 48 hour waiting time to…
AMRs differ among automation vendors, so it’s important to have a good grasp on the specific features of each version of the technology and whether these will address the specific needs of your application.
