A deep dive into the world of high-tech assembly
Assembling high-tech robots and AGVs for industrial and agricultural applications requires specialised skills and experience. In a series of interviews, we bring together our leading technical specialists in assembly, parts manufacturing, and development to foster collaboration and innovation. For the fourth interview, we asked Daphne van Duren, a Mechatronics Technician at Hittech Comac, what makes…
Measuring the Invisible: A Novel High-Sensitivity Hydrogen Gas Permeation Platform
Researchers at the University of Oxford have developed a high-sensitivity gaseous hydrogen permeation platform capable of quantifying exceptionally low hydrogen fluxes under controlled pressure and temperature conditions. The Hiden HAL/3F RC 201 PIC quadrupole mass spectrometer provided calibrated, high-sensitivity detection of hydrogen alongside residual gas species such as oxygen, water vapour and nitrogen. The study…
Measuring the impossibly small, with the lowest uncertainty
Karsten Molter provides an overview of the OPTIV Reference, and its role in measurement lab applications. See it capture highly complex miniaturized watch components with high-accuracy multi sensing powered by OPTIV Dual Z technology, plus a vision sensor standard on…
Onjuist getimed onderhoud van bewerkingsmachines leidt onvermijdelijk tot stilstand en een korte levensduur
Onjuist getimed onderhoud van bewerkingsmachines leidt onvermijdelijk tot stilstand en een korte levensduur. Maar het coördineren en standaardiseren van het onderhoud voor een heel machinepark van CNC-machines is geen geringe uitdaging. Lees meer [Bron foto: HEIDENHAIN Netherlands op linkedin.com]

Seeing is believing
Seeing is believing. Embracing this age-old adage, one professor at Virginia Commonwealth University adopted simulation apps into undergraduate electromagnetics coursework. As explained by Professor Nate Kinsey, “Applications enable students to see and interact with a phenomenon themselves, and at their own pace.” Read more [Picture source: COMSOL, Inc. on linkedin.com]
As process equipment gets smaller, expectations for performance aren’t getting any smaller
From benchtop bioreactors and thin film coating systems to emerging energy and research applications, engineers are being asked to fit greater capability into increasingly compact equipment. That’s why Brooks Instrument developed the AMF Series Advanced Mass Flow Controller.
What is important to know if you’re dosing liquids at a low flow rate?
In many production processes, additives represent only a small fraction of the final product. Yet they often have the biggest impact on quality. Read more [Picture source: Bronkhorst on linkedin.com] FOTO:
