Würth Electronics Midcom: Isolated Buck Transformers
Watertown, SD — Würth Electronics Midcom has introduced a new series of isolated buck transformers for Maxim Integrated’s MAX17681 con- verter. These pick-and-placeable transformers, with built-in self- shielding packages, have small form factors and low losses. The high-effi- ciency MAX17681 converter eliminates the need for optocou- pler feedback circuits and can deliver up to 3W of output power. Applications of these transformers include isolated fieldbus interfaces, PLC I/O modules, smart meters, medical equipment, and floating power supply generation. Würth Electronics Midcom
designs and manufactures cus- tom magnetics. A standard line of magnetics is offered, including inductors, ferrites, chokes, and EMI shielding materials. Recently, the electromechanical and interconnect line was added to the product offer- ing, which includes board-to-board, wire-to-board, terminal blocks, and
I/O communication. The company’s standard lines
and custom-made transformers are used around the world in LED light- ing, smart grid and utility metering, industrial controls, telecom (CPE and CO), home automation, and home appliances.

Renton, WA —Microscan has released a model of its LVS-7510 print quality inspection system as a fully-integrated solution within Printronix® brand thermal label printers, the Printronix T8304 and T8308. With the acquisi- tion of label inspection systems manu- facturer Label Vision Systems (LVS) in 2015, Microscan now offers the com- plete line of LVS® precision machine vision solutions for label quality inspection, barcode verification, moni- toring, and analysis. LVS print quality inspection sys-
tems contain comprehensive machine vision tools for evaluating the accura- cy of all aspects of a label, including barcode reading to capture and vali- date encoded data, barcode verifica- tion to ensure compliance with ISO/IEC quality standards for data legibility, optical character recogni- tion (OCR) for text validation, optical character verification (OCV) for text quality, and variable data analysis for validating sequential data, such as serial numbers. These LVS systems are all-in-one hardware/software solu- tions that ensure the accuracy of label data for internal process control and documentation, as well as the legibili- ty and compliance of data against global standards like those put forth by ISO, GS1, and others. The LVS-7510 is designed to
seamlessly integrate LVS machine vision components into the print head of the most popular brands of thermal transfer printers, enabling Microscan to offer a fully-integrated and real- time print and inspection solution for thermal printed labels. The LVS com- ponents are equipped with a 5.4 or 8.5 in. (13.7 or 21.6 cm) read head for scanning label widths from 4.1 to 8.5 in. (10.4 to 21.6 cm), as well as a stop motion unit, print control unit, and light tower for triggering alerts or printer actions when label errors are detected. If a label error occurs, the LVS-7510 can signal a stack light alert, cease printing, or control the printer to rewind and mark out the bad label to ensure it is not used. The printer can then reprint a new label
Microscan Intros Integrated Label Inspection System
for another inspection. The system guarantees that all print jobs are exe- cuted in sequence to avoid mislabel- ing, and with each label inspected directly at the print head, errors are caught immediately to limit waste and ensure cost and materials effi- ciency in printing.
Label printer with integrated print quality inspection system.
Now available as a fully-integrat-
ed solution within Printronix T8304 and T8308 thermal transfer printers, the LVS-7510 system paired with the Printronix printer is sold by the com- pany as a comprehensive automated label print and inspection solution. The system can verify any combina- tion of linear, 2D, or stacked codes to ISO/IEC 15415 or 15416 quality stan- dards, including any orientation or number of codes on a single label. In the LVS-7510 software, barcode quali- ty is displayed plainly as a number or letter grade and is color-coded for level of quality, while other label errors (such as improper data or label blem- ishes) are shown in a toggle window that emphasize the differences between a stored “master” label and the production label that is printed. Number validation allows the system to verify the expected order of any numerical data series, detect dupli- cates and sequence errors, and match variable numerical strings with exter- nally-programmed data, ensuring
accurate serialization. Contact: Microscan Systems,
