Low Ripple DC Tachometers

mbarnes — Fri, 24 May 2013 18:58:24 +0000

Servo-Tek Tach Generators provide a convenient means of converting rotational speed into an isolated analog voltage signal suitable for remote indication and control applications. Combining high accuracy with low driving torque, Servo-Tek tach generators are ideal for use in servo systems. Tach Generators are particularly suited to application in precision integrators and velocity servos, both of which require highly linear speed/voltage relationships with minimum ripple.

High Performance Ceramic for Increased Life-Span of Orthopedic Implants

Innovnano has developed 3 mol % yttria stabilised zirconia powder (3YSZ) – an advanced technical ceramic with medical device applications. Thanks to a uniform nanostructure and formation of a high stability phase under pressure, Innovnano’s 3YSZ combines extreme component strength and fracture-resistance with enhanced biocompatibility, making it the ideal ceramic material for extended-life orthopedic implants, particularly knee and hip replacements.
