A family of three thermal protectors from Selco Products offers high-reliability overheat protection, automatic reset, a dual-spring-mechanism design, and sharp "snap-action" sound when activated. The ...

In a major leap forward for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology, researchers have unveiled a novel miniaturized accelerometer that can boost sensitivity, reducing noise and bias ...

Gravity compensation mechanisms are essential innovations in robotics that counteract gravitational forces acting on manipulator arms and platforms. By offsetting the inherent weight-induced torques, ...

When one needs a spring, a 3D-printed version is maybe not one’s first choice. It might even be fair to say that printed springs are something one ends up making, rather than something one sets out to ...
