De drijvende kracht achter het High Tech Platform

Robotisering, systems engineering en AI: het is een greep uit de thema’s aan de stamtafel van het Techcafé. De centrale plek in ons clubhuis voor de hightech- en maakindustrie, waar we diepgaande discussies voeren over belangrijke onderwerpen in de maakindustrie. Onder de bezielende leiding van de intussen vaste en vertrouwde gespreksleider: Maarten Roos, Manager High Tech Platform. Relatief kort aan boord…

Failliet: dit gebeurt er met de octrooien

Een faillissement; niet echt een vrolijk onderwerp. Maar wel een belangrijk onderwerp, zeker wanneer uw bedrijf octrooien heeft of wanneer er een octrooiaanvraag is ingediend. Ook wanneer uw bedrijf financieel in topconditie is, is het belangrijk om voorzorgsmaatregelen te nemen. Zo voorkomt u dat u uw octrooien verliest wanneer het onverhoopt toch tot een faillissement…

Ingenious and ergonomic design of steerable guidewires

Guidewires have been used for ages to perform image-guided procedures in the circulatory system, such as angioplasty, catheter insertion, stent placement and brain surgery. They require precise intravascular steerability for accessing difficult-to-reach anatomical locations and limiting damage inside the body. We developed an…

What is On-line Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry?

On-line Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry (OEMS) is an advanced analytical technique that combines electrochemical methods with mass spectrometry. It enables real-time monitoring and analysis of evolved gases during electrochemical processes and is an extension of Differential Electrochemical Mass Spectrometry (DEMS). OEMS plays an important role in various scientific fields, offering valuable insights into reaction mechanisms, kinetics, and the behaviour of electroactive…

The importance of cleanroom validation

Do you know whether your cleanroom still meets the desired ISO class?Managing Director Niels Ferguson explains: “Due to use, aging, contamination or damage to components, it is possible that the cleanroom no longer achieves its desired ISO class. A higher than desired ISO-class can have very adverse effects on the work process and end product(s).”
