Smart Toys and Accessories for Pets – Ambiq

Smart pet toys and accessories may look like regular pet items, but some are, in fact, Bluetooth® or Wi-Fi® connected IoT devices that the animal’s owner can operate through a smartphone app. These battery-powered devices can help keep pets mentally stimulated, reduce boredom, and help with weight management. For pet owners, these always-on devices can help ensure their pets…

Graphene, how can we produce it on a larger scale?

Graphene can be produced using different methods. One of the most used methods in single-layered graphene product is plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition (PE-CVD). Flow control devices are being used to dose gases and liquids into the process.In this blog I would like to share the story of our Spanish distributor, Iberfluid Instruments S.A, who cooperated with the University of…

Flowmeting in microfluïdica

Een fabrikant van microfluïdesystemen zocht een flow-oplossing om microfluïden efficiënter te meten. In eerste instantie maakte de fabrikant gebruik van thermische massflowmeters. De thermische massflowmetingen bleken echter niet stabiel genoeg voor deze toepassing en een hogere reproduceerbaarheid was gewenst. Bronkhorst stelde een alternatieve oplossing voor, waarbij werd gekozen voor een op Coriolis-technologie gebaseerde microfluïdeflowmeter. Lees…
