Benefits of 3D Printed Models in EVAR Procedural Planning
Understanding the anatomy of a complex abdominal aortic aneurysm is essential. Precise geometry of the aorta and distances between the aneurysm and branch vessels can be difficult to appreciate from computed tomography (CT) scans and CT 3D reconstructions alone. In this whitepaper you’ll learn … [Read more...]
How Lean Manufacturing Impacts and Adds Value to PCB Production
In an earlier paper, we established the importance of Design for Manufacturing (DFM) in today’s PCB manufacturing environment. PCBs designed using those techniques typically experience reduced failure rates, cost less to manufacture, and minimize waste during production. While DFM certainly … [Read more...]
Robotics 3D Inspiration Guide
Fundamentally, soft robots are exactly what they sound like, robots that are compliant in places where it’s most useful. And it’s this softness that makes the new soft robots more successful interacting with everything from a strawberry to a human. So why all the attention to soft robotics? The … [Read more...]
Piezo Switches: Rugged Solid-State Technology for Unbeatable Life, Cleanliness and Simplicity
Piezo switches excel in extremely harsh environments in part because they are solid-state devices. No wonder their use is proliferating in food and beverage, oil and gas, aerospace, medical laboratory, and packaging industries. But other piezo switch features can help maximize their reliability, … [Read more...]
How Limit and Basic Switches Can Stop Machines from Going Boom
In hazardous locations, switches need to operate in the presence of explosive fumes or gases, in dirty or dust-filled environments, in remote parts of the world and around extremely harsh chemicals. To withstand harsh environments, switches must comply with explosion-proof switching requirements to … [Read more...]
