Dielectric capacitor Class I from KEMET at Rutronik
KEMET complements its high-temperature dielectric Class I portfolio. The capacitor is a robust and reliable component for critical applications that require stability at higher operating temperatures. The X8G extension shows no change in capacitance as a function of voltage and exhibits only a minimal change in capacitance as a function of ambient temperature. It is suitable for transient voltage suppression, safety-related circuitry, filtering a...
An optimal combo: robotics design and design automation
While the most obvious concept of robotics design is when humans manufacture robots, this article by Sam Holland considers how design automation has an invaluable role in ensuring that machines can also inform robot designers' decision making.
Sempre introduces CT scanning services
Traditionally, to fully inspect entire components and assemblies, manufacturers often require multiple systems. Even if they are scanned, manufacturers can struggle to retrieve the necessary insights to improve their production process. To provide manufacturers with access to this equipment and data, industrial metrology supplier The Sempre Group now offers CT systems as well as industrial CT scanning and data analysis services from its Ireland o...
Questioning ‘common knowledge’: the gender gap
It is considered common knowledge that there are many more male engineers than there are female members of the industry. As Electronic Specifier’s Sam Holland considers, the points that are less understood, however, are how the ratios of female-to-male employees fare in other STEM-friendly industries – and the reasons why engineering has one of the widest gender gaps of them all.
adi group partners with Roquette on sustainable demolition project
A sustainable demolition project, which aimed to reuse and recycle as much equipment and material as possible, has been successfully completed by adi engineering group. The engineering firm continues to show how traditional methods of project management are not comparable to the more in-depth and thoughtful approach adi uses to increase sustainability, efficiency and profit.
