SENSORS: All Sensors Corp.’s ½ inch H2O Full Scale Millivolt Output Pressure Sensor is the first ½ inch H2O Millivolt Output Pressure Sensor released to the market. Obtaining a ½ inch measurement from a millivolt device has become possible utilizing proprietary All Sensors’ CoBeam²TM Technology. The ½-inch device offers 2x the sensitivity of the 1 inch H2O device which provides higher signal to noise for the most demanding low-pressure applications. This millivolt pressure sensor offers accurate, low-pressure measurements at a more affordable price. The entire ½- to 30-inch H2O pressure sensor family is RoHS-compliant. The sensors are offered in a pc board mountable package with two pressure ports. Seven pressure ranges are available from ½ inch H2O full scale to 30 inch H2O full scale. They are available with a millivolt output proportional to either gage or differential pressure. Output offset errors are significantly reduced by electrical cross coupling compensation employed within the sensor.
Almost every automaker has had to 'pick a side' when it comes to alternative fuel options and ways to divest from a reliance on gasoline. Fiat is looking to back compressed natural gas or liquid propane as an interim solution.
Plastic may not be the most beloved of materials to the more environmentally minded, but Plasti 2012 aimed to mold a different opinion of the material in people's minds.
The rare earth element market has become steadily more rational, and new sources coming online will continue to reduce costs. Still, it is unlikely that prices will drop to their former lows.
Against a backdrop of mounting product complexity and a need to keep a lid on development costs, companies are recognizing a need to make simulation a more integral part of the design process. In response, vendors in the CAD world are building out CAE functionality as part of their CAD suites while simulation vendors are building tighter integrations to leading CAD tools. Keith Meintjes, Ph.D., Practice Manager, Simulation and Analysis at CIMdata, Inc., joins Design News CAD Editor Beth Stackpole in this radio program to explore the new face of integrated CAD and CAE, how companies are benefitting from this tighter partnership between platforms, and how integrating CAE earlier in the development cycle pays off in optimized product designs.
