In the injection molding of plastics, in-mold sensors, as part of a variety of process control packages, have been around for decades. But comparatively recently, similar technology has begun to make ...

Switch mode capacitive pressure sensors are proposed as a new class of microfabricated devices that transform pressure into a mechanically switching capacitance to form an analog-to-digital signal ...

Hydraulic applications rely upon fluid power or pressurized fluids to generate, control, and transmit power. These systems are capable of producing high power and high forces in small volumes and have ...

For those of you who haven’t spent much time around the Power Stroke name, the first 14 years of its production (the 7.3L and 6.0L) utilized a hydraulically activated, electronically controlled, unit ...

Smart manufacturing uses AI and real-time data to boost injection molding quality, cut costs and predict equipment issues.

An autoinjector is a medical instrument (medical device) with which liquid medication can be administered and is therefore subject to strict quality controls. Years ago, autoinjectors were mainly used ...

I just finished testing a module capable of measuring a range of pressures! The experiment is centered around a small and inexpensive pressure sensor module available with the description “HX710B ...

Abu Dhabi Marine and Operating Co. (ADMA-OPCO) has embarked on a project with vMonitor to deploy a new generation wireless-sensor-network technology for monitoring continuously injection well surface ...

When it comes to testing microelectromechanical system devices and sensors, sometimes you have to shake and bake. and sensors are physically different from standard ICs. They require a specific type ...

Imagine a turbocharger trying to pressurize a carburetor with its small venturis and finicky floats and you can get some idea why electronic fuel injection opened the door to big boost, big power, big ...

Ever encounter a part that has a process window thinner than a human hair? Managing the pressure loss in the molding process is complicated and influenced by many factors that are outside the control ...
