News from miniaturization, microsystem technology, nanotechnology
Here you will find components, systems and technologies for your development in microsystem technology, for miniaturization and the Nanotechnology such as sensors, actuators, microfluidics, micromechanics and micro-optics.
Microsystems technology is becoming more and more important for industry in the course of miniaturization, digitization and automation. Microsystems are composed of micromechanics, microelectronics, microfluidics and microoptics. Applications of microsystem technology can be found in Electrical Engineering and Medical Technology. It becomes even smaller with nanotechnology, which is an extension of microsystem technology. This is based on the proportions of the nanoparticles and takes place in the millionth of a millimeter. The lotus effect from bionics is probably one of the most famous applications here.

Crimp-based wire-to-board connectors for printed circuit boards
The crimp-based wire-to-board connectors Connexis has Phoenix Contact for the cable assembly designed in automated production. They allow fast and precise PCB connector. Optical identification on the connector makes assembly in the field or in-house production clear. The user can choose from a large number of individual prints.
Powerful compensating coupling from 1 mm bore diameter
With the naked eye, the holes with a diameter of 1 mm or more are small Micro couplings from Orbit Drive Technology almost unrecognizable. Nevertheless, such a compensating coupling offers a performance that one might not expect from its tiny size. Their outer diameter can be compared to that of a ladybug and with their bore diameter they would fit into a larger spaghetti.

Palletizing systems must provide raw parts, semi-finished products or components in an oriented manner, and be able to feed and remove them carefully, in an orderly manner and in a predetermined position from the assembly area or the machine. The various palletizers from IEF-Werner are designed precisely for these tasks. With their open and modular design, they ensure more individuality for the user. The “Smallstack” series palletizer is a new development - for handling miniature components or for micro-assembly.
