Extend Your Range with Digital Twins for Thermal Battery Management

Laptops, smartphones, electric vehicles, power tools, or your toothbrush: mobile applications like this need stored mobile energy to fulfill their tasks. For larger systems, like battery electric vehicles, the mobile energy requirements grow profoundly, and energy storage capacity plays the starring role in broad acceptance of e-mobility. But what is so special about batteries in mobile applications and what makes…

Meet the first handheld 3D scanners in the Hexagon product range – ATLASCAN Max and MARVELSCAN. Engineered to redefine how you perceive 3D scanning and data capture, Hexagon’s devices revolutionise the standard feature set while addressing customer challenges head-on.

vibration isolation for nanometer measurement device

In this article, we present the model-based design steps for a high-performance vibration isolation system to support a metrology frame. During the design phase, several improvements were shown to increase the vibration isolation performance. The design requirements for the individual spring and damper components have been derived from the relatively simple model. To conclude, the realisation…

Conductivity vs Isolation

In electronics conductivity is important but isolation also. Electrical isolation but also thermal isolation is as important. S&Q has the machinery, among others UV laser and CNC drilling, to accurately manufacture plastics parts with high accuracy and short delivery times. Many manufactured parts are based on FR-4 glass epoxy, a popular and versatile high-pressure thermoset plastic laminate grade…
