New Confi gurator mobilCASE Extruded Handheld Enclosures
ROLEC has launched a new online confi gurator that makes it easy for customers to specify customised mobilCASE handheld enclosures and generate CAD and PDF fi les of their specifi c housing. Tough mobilCASE is a smart, modern range of extruded aluminium enclosures for handheld electronic instruments and machine/robot controllers. It can also be mounted horizontally or vertically for display or control panels. The case extrusion is offered as a single profi le (IP 65) for slide-in PCB assemblies or as a two-part profi le (IP 54) which allows keyboards and displays to pass through the top profi le if required. Both sides of the profi le are recessed to accommodate a membrane keypad or product label. Diecast aluminium end covers with TPE sealing gaskets complete the case assembly.
Temperature range -25°C to +800°C Short-term up to +850°C

Precision mixing contains costs for product development
A pre-pilot mixing plant is using wireless TorqSense transducers for ultra-accurate viscosity measurement of high-value compounds.
The plant is used to prepare small batches of compounds from shampoo and detergent to cosmetics, therapeutic and medical preparations. Some of the ingredients in the compounds are very expensive, so product developers are loath to make large batches early in the formulation process.
Instead, they start with 850 millilitre samples for the early stages of each project, then once the recipe is well-proven, move on to pilot-scale work where the samples are measured in thousands of litres. The fi nal stage is, of course, full-scale production where volumes may be truly enormous. The TorqSense transducers were supplied by Sensor Technology Ltd of Banbury, whose Mark Ingham explains the design of the pre-pilot plant: “It can take three hours or more to make a single sample, each produced with precision accuracy – and development programmes need a great many samples.

EMC fi lters made of High Frequency Composite Materials meet the requirements for SiC and GaN applications
SMP has developed "All Mode" EMC fi lters with high frequency stability. EMC fi lters reduce interference currents and voltage spikes in power converters and other systems. The material of the fi lters plays a decisive part: the High Frequency Composite Materials (HFCM) developed and manufactured by SMP are effective for frequencies up to the gigaHertz range and satisfy all of the requirements to which modern SiC and GaN applications are subject. The All Mode design damps both differential mode and common mode noise. By combining HFCM and All Mode technology it is possible to reduce the number of fi lter components needed in the system by about 50 percent. Among other advantages, this also means that common mode chokes or fi lters can be dispensed with.
