HEADLINES ARCHIVE

  • ARC executive interview with Jeremy M. Friedmar of Belden

    Learn about Belden's transformation to a solutions provider and how Belden empowers its customers on their digital transformation journeys.

  • When to use ceramic bearings

    Compared to steel bearings in similar environments, ceramics can last two to three times longer. Trading off the higher cost of ceramics for fewer maintenance overhauls usually is worth it for those specialty applications which really need high performance.

  • Bumax delivers fasteners that are out of this world

    These fasteners will be used to secure a new payload aboard the International Space Station.

  • Hybrid scheme enhances energy storage efficiency

    Gravity energy storage and power-based storage systems, such as batteries and supercapacitors, can be combined in a single system.

  • Kollmorgen Express Delivery shortens lead times for the company’s most popular motion products

    The company has implemented a new classification for select products that can be delivered within an accelerated timeframe.

  • 3D printed wall can communicate with its developers

    The sensors provide real-time data about temperature, strain, relative humidity, pressure, electrical resistivity, and electrochemical potential — metrics that could potentially aid researchers in both detecting and correcting structural flaws before they occur.

  • The indoor pollution potential of gas stoves

    Recent research points to these appliances as major sources of benzene in residential spaces.

  • Free drive technology webinars from Faulhaber

    Webinars on stepper motors, noise development in miniature drives, how linear drives function or selecting the right encoder are available.

  • VLB3: The innovative third-generation steam conditioning valve

    The valve's design features include a quick exchange seat that is suitable for installations where erosion caused by wet steam or high velocities can have an adverse effect on seat leakage (tightness). The distribution of pressure drops in this configuration reduces the steam velocity across the sealing surfaces.

  • High-speed robotic parcel sorting system introduced by Ambi Robotics

    Ambi Robotics has introduced its AmbiSort B-Series, a modular parcel induction and sorting solution designed to automate the tasks of inducting and sorting parcels into gaylord destinations, and thus automating the labor-intensive manual sorting of supply chain operations.

  • Automating compliance with nuclear arms agreements

    N-SpecDir Bot can reportedly be programmed to detect a nearby source of neutrons — sub-atomic particles from the nucleus of an atom — and the direction they are coming from as well as the intensity of their source.

  • How to derate bearings based on load

    When significant axial force is applied, the bearing load carrying capability must be adjusted to accommodate this combined load. This is often referred to as derating the bearings.

  • Pushing the boundaries of packaging innovation

    From chip scale packaging to multi-octave M-Package designs, Marki Microwave continues to lead in packaging innovation.

  • Roller vs thrust bearings

    Most roller bearings can tolerate a slight side load of about 10% the rated load. But if a significant side load is anticipated, it is best to use a bearing which is designed for this condition to begin with.

  • Tech Frontiers in Outer Space (August 6-12)

    The current era of space travel and engineering has never been more exciting.

  • Solving manufacturing's 4 big challenges: Interview series

    Modern manufacturing is at a crossroads. Perhaps the biggest challenge lies the with workforce. Sustainability has also emerged as a key concern. Yet the practicalities of being efficient and productive, while also needing to change operations or equipment, without hampering product quality or output, is an immense task.

  • Video: Elastocaloric cooling tech is heating up

    Rather than using a refrigerant circuit containing a working fluid, the technology instead relies on pushing and pulling pieces of metal to initiate phase transition and create cooling.

  • The mining of old sports car names for new SUVs continues with the Dodge Stealth

    According to recent reports, Dodge intends to resurrect the Stealth name sometime next year for a Durango replacement.

  • Comau is developing innovative battery cell formation solutions with the GIGABAT project

    Comau is designing energy-efficient cell formation technologies for GIGABAT, a collaborative e-mobility project aimed at strengthening the EU production chain for large-scale cell manufacturing.

  • SABIC launches pilot blockchain project to advance emissions tracking and reductions across value chains

    The project will evaluate the use of blockchain software in tracing the carbon footprint of specific material streams from end to end.
