March 5, 2013 – This is not your father’s (or your) distribution training. Some of the US’s most respected colleges and universities are offering training in distribution sales and marketing, and once students learn about the career possibilities, they are jumping to the front of the line to sign up.

Fiber optic links have been a mainstay media in the telecommunications industry for many years. Fiber offers a number of specific advantages over copper interfaces, including: Much-reduced attenuation and signal distortion over long distances Greatly increased bandwidth Immunity from EMI/ESD Much-reduced cable bulk and weight Reduced latency No electrical shock hazard or ground loop potentialRead More

March 5, 2013 – Pore corrosion is time-dependent and porosity has caused field problems in as little as a few weeks or as long as years down the line, depending on the application environment and performance requirements. Max Peel of Contech Research explains the causes and concerns of porosity, and his cohort Dr. Bob returns next month with part two of this tutorial.

Typical hand-wound coils meet existing performance goals by as much as a 2/3-design and 1/3-art process. Predictability is very difficult because of the human element involved in hand winding. As the frequencies increase, the design aspects become less and less predictable. As a result, the art aspect, the number of iterations performed until matching is achieved, will increase.

February 19, 2013 – In the highly competitive world of train manufacturing, there is increasing demand to replace the relatively large heavy metal connectors inside the cable car with smaller and lighter ones that still meet the strict smoke- and fire-resistant standards mandated by the industry. To meet these requirements, ITT’s Interconnect Solutions team created the VEAM Rectangular Plastic Connector.

Thanks to the small footprint and high degree of freedom, production units with six-axis robotic systems offer high flexibility and functionality, even in the most restricted spaces, and work well with low hall heights, clean room applications, or link facilities. Arburg walks you through an application solution for mold presses that allow for fully automated encapsulations of cables.

January 22, 2013 – Titanium compounds perform an increasing variety of electronic functions, and their utility has proved far broader than silicon compounds. Dr. Peter Harrop examines current and future uses of the compound in next-generation applications and beyond.
