How do you measure temperature changes in nanometric events? According to Science Daily: The miniaturisation of electronic components coupled with their increasing integration density has considerably expanded heat flows, which can lead to overheating. But how to measure these nanometric events when conventional solutions such as infrared thermography cannot go below a micrometre (1,000 times…
There are new tire procedures for F1 teams. According to AutoSport: With Pirelli’s investigation into the failures suffered by Lance Stroll and Max Verstappen at the Azerbaijan Grand Prix concluding that the way the tyres were run triggered the incidents, F1’s tyre supplier and governing body the FIA has worked on new protocols. Amid concerns…
The future of the food industry is automation technology. According to Food Mag: ifm’s process sensor portfolio is vast and has expanded to include analytical measuring sensors.
