Cleanroom and Machine Expansion in Malaysia

In just three months, our team at Hittech Wemac in Malaysia completed a new 650-square-metre cleanroom in compliance with ISO 14644 Class 7, meeting temperature, humidity, and ESD requirements at their new plant in Penang. But that’s not all, says their managing director, Paul Morach: ‘While the cleanroom is ready for manufacturing, we are already waiting for additional CNC milling…

Understanding the Benefits of MS-Based Detection in TPRx

Temperature-Programmed Reaction (TPRx) offers essential insight into how catalysts behave during temperature ramps. By observing the gases released or consumed during controlled heating, researchers can determine activation temperatures, identify reaction pathways, and evaluate material stability. The quality of the information derived from TPRx depends on the performance of the detector used to monitor the evolving gas stream. When reactions generate…

Petter Lind – Turning data into sustainable impact

During his traineeship, Petter developed a Power BI dashboard for KMWE that brings clear, data-driven insights into their return logistics process. Where the team previously relied mainly on physically monitoring what was happening on the factory floor, they…

Sonos Optimizes MEMS Microphone Design to Reduce Distortion from Wind Noise

MEMS microphones can be found in a wide variety of consumer products, including cellphones, laptops, and smartwatches. While these bite-sized acoustic sensors are able to process sound sources that vary greatly in tone, timbre, and application, distortion caused by wind noise has proven to be a design challenge since the beginning of this technology’s development.

Continuous development of the I/O system for the control cabinet

Users have long appreciated Beckhoff’s EtherCAT Terminals for their excellent performance, modular scalability, and user-friendliness. The entire portfolio has received a technological upgrade with the ED series: modernized design, tool-free assembly, and app-based diagnostics make signal acquisition more efficient than ever. Existing series remain fully mechanically compatible: the user-friendly ED series sets a standard for the future.

Leak Detection for Vacuum Systems

Maintaining vacuum integrity requires more than just identifying leaks – it demands precise leak detection and localization. That is where helium spraying comes in. Read more
