Height Gap Of Inkjet Printers
Height Gap Of Inkjet Printers Consumer Electronics Height Gap Of Inkjet Printers Positioning Description Introduction:  Inkjet printers require a certain distance between the inkjet print head and the paper. If the distance is set incorrectly, the printed images get blurry. Current state of the art printers have the print head nozzles built right into the bottom of the ink reservoir (B) as shown below. When the ink cartridge is installed in the printer, the inkjet nozzles (made out of silicon) essentially become a grounded target through the connections shown at [...]

Electronics Parts Profiling
Electronics Parts Profiling Consumer Electronics Electronics Parts Profiling Thickness Description MTI's 2D laser sensors can be used to scan 3D profiles of items such as printed circuit boards to verify all the parts are installed, making sure parts don’t exceed certain heights or that the part is present. You can even plot or examine the image intensity profile of the 2D sensor which yields a monochromatic image of the target and this can be used with OCR software or barcode software to recognize product codes, check if labels are present or [...]

Glass Thickness
Glass Thickness Consumer Electronics Glass Thickness Thickness Description Did you know that glass thickness can be measured with a capacitance probe? You will need some equipment: Digital Accumeasure D200 ASP-2500-CTA Dielectric probe (The capacitance probe has a sensing area of 11.25 mm) Range extension = 3X, 10Hz filter Introduction:  An industrial glass fabricator needed a way to determine the thickness of glass, before cutting it to shape and coating it. The glass sample was marked with indices to find the measuring points. The sample center point -5- thickness was checked with [...]
Cyber Security Applications
Cyber Security/Cyber Emissions • Side Channel Hardware RF Emissions • Spectrum Monitoring/RF Security Key Factors Related to Cyber Emissions GaGe cyber emission monitoring products support a variety of applications for cyber security. These aspects are interconnected in a variety of ways to support the optimization, safety and security of applications. Cybersecurity in Critical Infrastructure Critical infrastructure sectors, such as energy, government, military, transportation, and healthcare, heavily rely on digital systems and networks. Ensuring the cybersecurity of these systems is crucial to prevent disruptions or malicious attacks [...]
Piezo Stage Positioning
Piezo Stage Positioning Consumer Electronics Piezo Stage Positioning Description Positioning stages using piezoelectric stack actuators (PEA) have very high resolution. However, it is difficult to achieve precise dynamic motion tracking using traditional linear controllers such as PID due to the inherent hysteresis nonlinearity of piezoelectric materials and the phase lag associated with such controllers. Capacitance Sensors are ideal for measuring the actual piezo stage position and correcting for the inherent nonlinearity through closed loop feedback. They have the stability, bandwidth and high resolution needed to do the job. Several of MTI’s [...]

Thread Checking
Automotive Thread Checking Presence/Absence Description Manual thread inspection is slow, not always reliable and tedious for the inspector. Manufacturers have struggled to come up with ways to reliably automate the process at a reasonable cost. Automated systems are available that use “screw sensors” can quickly wear or be cross threaded, requiring operator attention and a tooling change. A worn screw can provide false rejections leading to the unnecessary scrapping of parts. Capacitance solutions are cost effective alternative which are becoming increasingly popular due to their high reliability and fast measurement speed. Special cylindrical “ring [...]
