Semiconductors-RAM

Semiconductors RAM refers to semiconductor integrated circuit memories that can be written on and read.  RAM stands for Random Access Memory and in the realm of semiconductors there are two types of basic seminconductor RAM memories, namely static (SRAM) and dynamic (DRAM).
Regardless of the type, semiconductor RAM chips contain a large number of memory cells [...]



Fume Extraction Arm UK

A fume extraction arm extracts smoke, dust and gases directly at their source, in order to minimize risks of contamination. Without a fume extraction arm, air pollutants, dust, gas and smoke, can cause damage to machinery as well as hazards to people. Higher quality extraction arms are made of acid proof stainless steel to avoid corrosion [...]



Fume Extraction Cabinet UK

Fume extraction cabinets are used to remove toxic fumes from the air, used most commonly in laboratory work, soldering and solvent handling.  A fume extraction cabinet is an alternative to a fume cupboard, but works in a very similar way. Fume extraction cabinets are often made from clear, shatterproof polycarbonate and have a chemically resistant [...]



Fume Cupboard UK

A fume cupboard, also known as a fume hood, is a large shield commonly found in chemistry laboratories in order to limit a person’s exposure to dangerous gases. Fume cupboards were originally manufactured from wood, but today the most commonly used contrsuction material is epoxy coated mild steel. There are two main ways to create [...]



ESD Storage UK

ESD (Electrostatic discharge) is a serious issue in electronics especially in integrated circuits. It is casued the same way as lightning is caused- when build-ups of eletrostatic charges are suddenly released as electric current. The high voltage can be extremely damaging to electronic equipment, especially silicon and silicon dioxide. To prevent ESD from damaging expensive [...]



CSP Rework UK

A CSP (Chip Scale Package) is a type of circuit carrier, an alternative to a ball grid array or a pin grid array. A chip scale package is the half the size of a pencil-top eraser and is not intended to be used for large circuit designs. Though the CSP is generally more reliable that [...]



Component Preforming UK

The component preforming machines are either manually operated or motorised machines. Component preforming appliances are designed for removing unwanted axial and radial components from tape or providing forms, for example for the goal-post, vertical mount, stand-off, lock-in or radial crop. Like component cropping machines, component preforming machines are adjustable for a wide range of component [...]



Component Cropping UK

Component cropping is an important stage in the manufacture of circuit board components. One highly reccomended brand of component cropping is the Supercut range of machines, which are available for cut only as well as cut & form applications.
Component cropping machines can be made to be either motorized or pneumatic. Machines like these are used [...]



Component Counter UK

Component counters are powered by either mains or mains/battery units and are used for counting axial and radial components which includes taped transistors. Using a component counter and SMD tape, it is easy to find the total number of components in seconds. Various accessories for a component counter are available, such as a bar code [...]



Wiring Harnesses

Wiring harnesses are a string of cables and wires that transmit informational signals or operating currents. To prevent cables hanging loose and breaking or causing accidents they are bound by clamps, cable ties, lacing, sleeves or tape.
Wiring harnesses are used for a wide range of applications, especially in the construction and manufacturing industries. Using wiring harnesses over individual [...]
