tions, design a customized metallizing system with proper masking to meet the requirements, and develop the shielding and
coating process.
The new equipment has increased capacity and throughput by as much as 35%
over its predecessor, said Vergason. The
company's custom-built coating systems
are capable of applying a variety of alloy or
metal including aluminum, copper, stainless
steel, and nickel in a single or multiple layers.
Vergason Technology, Inc. of Van Etten, New
York has been an industry leader in vacuum
coating. Along with our international partners, we have set the standard in PVD coatings and equipment.
"We know that metal coatings are a
key element in quality assurance for large
quota manufacturing. Metalizing is a process where a thin layer of metallic film is applied to a conductive surface. This process,
known as PVD, or physical vapor deposition,
can be applied to glass, plastic, and metal
substrates," said a company spokesperson.
PVD uses a vacuum metallization chamber to apply metal coatings and can be utilized for a number of manufacturing products, such as appliance components, vehicle
lighting, glassware and mirrors, solar paneling, and much more.

New Series of Touchless Position Sensors from Novotechnik

sealed up to IP69.

Novotechnik has introduced a new series of touchless position sensors. The TFD
4000 Series are absolute position sensors
with 14, 24 or 50 mm stroke length, compact housing and floating magnetic marker.
With an extremely flat, compact design
they provide wear-fee touchless technology
optimized for mechanical engineering and
mobile applications. Single and redundant
versions are available, providing up to 12

New High-Permeability Ferrite
Material and Toroid Cores Developed by Magnetics

Magnetics has introduced a new high
permeability ferrite material suitable for
signal, choke, and filter applications such
as common mode chokes, EMI suppression
filters, signal processing, and broadband
transformers. M Material's permeability of
15,000μ is designed for optimum impedance performance across frequency ranges.
High permeability ferrite materials provide
superior loss factor, frequency response,
temperature performance, and product
consistency.
The company has also recently developed a new generation of sendust cores,
known as Kool Mu MAX cores. "We supercharged our low core loss Kool Mµ material
with 50% better DC bias performance for
better power handling, said the company.
"Use of copper wire is minimized by maintaining inductance using less turns, resulting
in savings in overall component cost. With
its super low losses, Kool Mμ MAX does not
mimic the temperature rise problems found
in iron powder cores and improves inductor
efficiency very cost-effectively." The product comes in toroid shapes, sized from 13.5
mm to 134 mm.
