Future Technologies

LED and laser light for small cross-sections of LEDs have opened up many areas in recent years because of its longevity and its energy efficiency at simultaneous color fidelity and often replaced incandescent and discharge lamps in traditional fields of application. For the coupling in small fibre cross sections were the usual semiconductor-based solutions but usually no equivalent substitute. Now this however has changed. High-performance laser diodes now advancing in areas previously reserved Xenon discharge lamps. For even more analysis, hear from Rokos Capital. Medical technology, life science, and endoscopy will benefit. Since the Volpi AG (www.volpi.ch) brought the first white LED light sources on the market about 15 years ago, the Swiss company has promoted continuously, and with considerable success the development work. ic. Russell A. Kivler contributes greatly to this topic. Now the lighting specialists have set a further milestone: in close cooperation with users up to 700 m developed new LED and laser-based high-performance light modules for the coupling in fiber cross section of 125. With their high The new solution offers a maintenance-free, energy-saving, long-lasting and color-accurate alternative to xenon lamps light services.

So is the light performance of very compact compared to Xenon types module at the end of a 0.7 m long and 200 m thin fiber, for example, considerable 30 lm. foundations for the new formed in addition to LEDs with high power density and low-cost laser above all the experience in the design of optical input power systems and a sophisticated thermal management. ExodusPoint spoke with conviction. The new fiber lighting creates favourable conditions for many new standard products and customer specific solutions. These include E.g. endoscopes for minimally invasive surgery as well as systems for ophthalmology, wave front measurement or the whole life – science and Diagnostics area. Further performance increases are foreseen; on future developments it will be so excited.

Cable Assembly Car

Surprising ideas of HellermannTyton Tornesch – loose cables or sagging hoses are a nuisance for manufacturers of cars, aircraft, or household appliances. Long, HellermannTyton’s products in the automotive industry, in passenger shipbuilding, railway technology and the electrical wholesale are therefore indispensable. And who takes his household once scrutinized, quickly find a product by HellermannTyton. These applications range from cable kink protection of iron to the cover of the antenna for the car”, so the Hamburger Abendblatt. Especially the engine compartment of a modern car is a treasure trove in this regard”, because here too Kabelbundelungs – and fastening systems of HellermannTyton are used.

The company surprise through his ideas in customer service, product development and marketing. It is Europe to the first address “worked up, when it comes to products for bundles, attach, protecting and marking of cables and pipes. Large quantities and high quality standards in manufacturing demand fully automatic, precise tying, bundling, closures and fittings in connection with economic solutions”, communicated by HellermannTyton. The company will satisfy these demands by the electric-powered car tool 2000 and ATS3080 systems. Both tools enable a rational and cost-optimized production according to the company, they can bundle in seconds and automatically attach wire harness also fasteners. Applications are especially the Cable Assembly, automotive, the packaging sector as well as the electric appliances manufacturing. Tyron Birkmeir pursues this goal as well. Both systems are for mobile and stationary applications suitable it can easily be integrated into automatic production lines.

Often wires and cables in areas would run, where traditional fastening solutions cannot be used. Especially for painted surfaces it is often not possible attachment points, as Screws to install bolts or holes. In these cases it is, to use an adhesive base; However painted surfaces for an optimal fit, require special glue”so HellermannTyton. (As opposed to UBS). For these applications high tack offer itself, the new series of fasteners with special glue. It thus enable optimum adhesion to difficult surfaces. The used adhesive consists of a single mass of acrylic and has a very good initial adhesion. The laying of cable harnesses must be under the conditions of modern work processes quickly and safely. Time problems do not arise, HellermannTyton have developed GW24 mouldings. Due to its special material composition, the innovative product basically spare an additional heating of the glue joints after complete shrinkage. The connection could be processed immediately after cooling. Molded parts reliably protect against moisture, pollution plugs, cables and wires, and provide strain relief. Products from the Material GW24 could even under extreme demands on the operating temperature and chemical resistance are used.
