KMWE Precision investeert in SLM 500 metaalprinter
KMWE Precision gaat op de BIC een AM-afdeling opzetten. In het voorjaar van 2023 moet hier de productie starten op een SLM 500 AM-systeem met 4 lasers. Een van de eerste producten die seriematig geproduceerd gaat worden is het entry- en exit onderdeel voor een koelcircuit in de machine van ASML. Lees verder [Bron: made-in-europe.nu]
Improving Safety and Mobility with Autonomous Vehicles
Autonomous vehicles are posed to increase the safety of roadways and improve mobility for millions of Americans. The Autonomous Vehicle Caucus aims to make this a reality. Zuken supports these efforts with our high-quality, proven software for system design.
How Decaying Shells Help Preserve the Alkalinity of the Seas
Calcium carbonates produced by sea creatures help to maintain the ocean’s alkalinity — and also serve as a natural sink for anthropogenic carbon dioxide. To better understand essential but obscure deep-sea galvanization processes, Olivier Sulpis of Utrecht University developed an innovative 3D reactive-transport model that shows how seashells help preserve calcite grains in seafloor sediments.

Application of Materials in the High Tech Industry
Last week the course Application of Materials in High Tech Industry started for the second time. It was kicked off by a presentation of Pieter Kappelhof, director Technology of the Hittech Group. This master course at the Delft University of Technology was the result of an initiative of the High Tech Industry, initiated by Hittech in 2020.
Discovering species with AI
The robot will use sensors, cameras and other technology to create images that must be converted into usable data. Dorin: “We have to train the AI system in such a way that it classifies the data from the sensors and the images extremely accurately.” That is important to identify existing species, but also to find species that we don’t even…
A short explanation of cogging in iron core direct drive motors
Cogging force is a phenomenon caused by the attraction of the iron lamination stack of the motor to the permanent magnets. The direction of this force is either the same or opposite to the moving direction. By moving the motor over the magnet track the cogging effect can be noticed, the motor has a preferred…

1U hoge modulaire voeding levert tot 800 W, heeft BF-geschikte isolatie en maakt extreem weinig geluid
TDK Corporation introduceert de TDK-Lambda 1U hoge MU4 serie AC-DC modulaire voedingen. De zeer lage geluidsproductie van het product is een pré in test- en medische toepassingen waar verstoringen door geluid tot een minimum moeten worden beperkt. De modulaire MU4 heeft tot vijf geïsoleerde en geregelde uitgangen en kan tot 800 W vermogen leveren. Alle modellen in…
Shape Optimization in Electromagnetics: Part 1
Shape optimization can be used to improve designs in many different physics areas. In this blog post, we will focus on shape optimization in wave optics. We will go over the shape optimization features in the COMSOL Multiphysics® software and show what you can expect to achieve when these features are used for wave optics applications. Read…
SMEs ask themselves: How can I produce flexibly?
Partly due to the corona pandemic, the machining companies in our country have seen a sharp increase in the number of production orders. Due to the rise of domestic production, especially SME’s are struggling more than ever with the question: How can I produce more flexibly? In this article Cellro provides some tips and tricks on…
