  • Hermetic compressors designed for medical cold chain solutions

    A dedicated range of compressors from Secop contributes to the ultra-low temperature supply chain required for vaccine distribution.

  • Lab grown wood could be the future of sustainable furniture

    The materials are grown in a similar way to lab cultivated meat.

  • App makes the supply chain more visible

    A new shipment tracking app could enable companies to monitor their products along the supply chain in real time.

  • Dashboard offers intel about aging oil and gas platforms

    Dashboard could boost Gulf of Mexico fishing industry, marine life populations.

  • Material solutions to seal out the elements in automotive lighting applications

    The materials typically specified for lamp sealing, such as EPDM foam, offer up-front expense savings. On the surface, of course, this is advantageous. A deeper look, however, reveals a more complicated picture.

  • The paradigm shift in commercial condensing boilers

    It is time to stop throwing away condensing boilers.

  • Velodyne and Beijing Trunk to develop driverless trucks for China’s logistics market

    The lidar will be used to strengthen object awareness and detection in these autonomous trucks.

  • Measurement and control of compressed air systems

    Many manufacturing processes require a constant supply of compressed air. The air may be used for many different reasons: for example, the actuation and control of pneumatic valves, cylinders and controllers.

  • Convergence Instruments’ technology supports Greater Santiago noise maps in Chile

    In 2008, the Chilean Ministry of the Environment (MMA) started the Noise Maps’ program for cities in Chile. In 2011, the first version of the Noise Map of Greater Santiago was completed, and during 2016, this Noise Map was updated, published and made available to the general public.

  • Satellite images used to find the impact of land acquisitions have food security

    Large scale land deals intended to help solve the world’s food security problem have actually had no impact or a negative impact.

  • QuesTek awarded ARPA-E funding for ultra-high temperature materials development for energy applications

    The funding will be used to design and develop a novel materials solution for next-generation turbine blade alloys and compatible coating systems.
