A cable assembly is 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.
Cable assemblies are used for a wide range of applications, especially in the construction and manufacturing industries. Using [...]

RF circuits are radio frequency circuits that are widely famous for their use in the mobile phone industry. They are analog circuits that tend to run in the frequency range of 900 MHz to 2.4 GHz.
RF circuit design is an area where the technology is constantly being improved with a huge budget for research and [...]
Kitting and sub assembly are both logistical methods used by suppliers to save their clients time and money. In current economic climate it is vital for suppliers to provide a top notch service in order to keep their customers from moving elsewhere. Kitting and sub assembly are two ways of improving life for clients and [...]
The kanban system, as made famous by Toyota is related to JIT systems and solutions. It is defined as a ’signalling system to trigger action’, which in manufacturing means that a signal is conveyed to indicate that stock levels are low and need to be replenished. The Just in Time system can then take over, [...]

Consignment stock is a logistical solution for companies with little storage or warehouse space. It is also a way of keeping overhead costs low, as the company does not have to pay rent on a warehouse or pay for the stock until they utilise it.
Consignment stock arrangements have a number of other advantages for both [...]
A soldering iron is the essential tool required for melting solder, which is then used to securely join two components. Solder irons are usually electrically powered and consist of a heated metal tip to melt the solder and an insulated handle to keep the engineer for harm.
Some solder irons are more effective than others [...]
The soldering industry use a specifically designed model of oven, called reflow ovens, in their manufacturing process in order to solder under strictly controlled conditions. To maintain these conditions and as a quality assurance procedure soldering companies use reflow temperature profiling systems.
Reflow temperature profiling systems produce a set of time-temperature data by measuring certain [...]
Printed circuit board or PCB labels have to be specially engineered to resist the harsh environments encountered when processing printed circuit boards. They carry information vital to the inventory and process control as well as details about customer specifications, so damage could cause errors further down the line.
PCB’s are exposed to high temperatures throughout [...]
