‘Dielectric Strength’
An Engineeringtalk guide
Start with the news release
PCB sensor measures internal ballistics of guns from
PCB Piezotronics, which we summarised at the time by saying "The Aerospace and Defense division of PCB Piezotronics has introduced the Model 165B02 charge output pressure sensor to measure the internal ballistics of sporting, police and military shot guns.".
Several months prior to that,
we featured the news release Designing joints and structural adhesives from
ITW Plexus: "Sally Sinai, technical manager of ITW Plexus, considers the issues that should be considered before designing joints to be bonded together with structural adhesives.".
In November 2009, we covered the news from Misumi
- take a look at Misumi bumper mitigates shock in automated devices
which says: "Misumi USA has launched a Shock Absorbing Bumper, designed for use in a range of automated factory-automation and motion-control machinery and devices. ".
Take a look also at the news release from SMAC Europe, Moving coil actuators have no mechanical backlash,
as well as AAC offers range of metric Neo-Flex couplings from Advanced Antivibration Components,
and Nord subassemblies include gearbox and motor from Nord Drivesystems.
