BKL helps Roche to speed-up installation of new analyzers

Roche Diagnostics Nederland is a supplier of diagnostic analysis equipment for medical labs. Due to the consolidation, more and more analyzers are being placed on a small surface. Sometimes these are also mechanically connected by a track transport. This presents a problem if one or more of these analyzers in a line need to be replaced by…

Extracting Electrical Circuits from Electromagnetics

Simulations One of the common objectives of electromagnetics simulation is to extract lumped quantities that can be used in electric circuit simulations. Keep reading to get step-by-step instructions on how to perform such a task using the COMSOL Multiphysics® software… Read more

XR20 rotary axis calibrator

The XR20 rotary axis calibrator works in conjunction with XL-80 and XM-60 laser systems providing highly accurate, repeatable rotary axis calibration for stages, jigs and machine tools. It consists of an integrated angular retroreflector mounted on a precision servo-controlled axis. The angular position of the axis, and the optics relative to the main body housing, is controlled by a…

Waarom processimulatie?

Efficiënter werken, verhoging van de productiviteit, minder voorraad, kostenbesparing: het zijn veelgehoorde doelen bij onze klanten. Automatisering wordt vaak gezien als de sleutel tot de oplossing, maar even vaak ontbreekt de feitelijke onderbouwing. Er is nog geen duidelijk beeld van de mogelijke oplossing en van de kosten daarvan. Of het is duidelijk dat processen beter kunnen, maar waar en hoe?…

ECAD Data Migration vs. Data Conversion

Electrical and electronic design data represent a valuable investment, which should be used and reused as much as possible. In today’s rapidly changing business environment with mergers and takeovers, changing business relations, and technological progress, you may frequently become confronted with changing tools and formats. Rea

TMC employeneurs quickly up to speed at Thermofisher

Thermofisher’s biggest site in The Netherlands is in Eindhoven, TMC’s hometown. An excellent environment for TMC employeneurs to thrive. Especially within the R&D department, where Miriam Sandberg has made a soft landing, thanks to the long term relationship between Thermofisher and TMC. Paul Nollen, Development Support Manager: ‘We collaborate closely with TMC, because we want the best engineers, and we…

A nice example of co-engineering and cleanroom assembly

Testing electronics under cleanroom conditions and in a vacuum is a challenge. Especially when it concerns high voltage electronics. In this case the customer needs a vacuum chamber that is able to test electronics under high vacuum (10-7 mbar). It is an ultra high purity application with a cleanliness of Grade 2 on the inside and Grade…

Disciplines Sioux Technologies en Masévon werken met modelgedreven softwareontwikkeling beter samen

Als software in een mechatronisch project meteen met de andere disciplines om tafel wil, moet het met hen kunnen communiceren. Softwarecode is voor die collega-disciplines – mechanica, elektronica en regeltechniek – een black box, dus zal het op een hoger abstractieniveau moeten gebeuren. Modelgedreven softwareontwikkeling, of MDD (model-driven development), biedt uitkomst. Sioux Technologies heeft daarvoor zelf tools gebouwd en blijft die in klantprojecten doorontwikkelen, zoals…
