According to Albert Einstein, clocks run slower the deeper they are in the gravitational potential of a mass – that is, the closer they are, for example, to a celestial body. This effect is called gravitational redshift within the framework of General Relativity – it manifests as spectral lines shif…

Certain medications or, for example, blood glucose test strips, must not become moist during storage, otherwise their effectiveness can no longer be guaranteed. Potential hazards are created by empty spaces in the packaging. Because moisture can form there from the ambient air and damage the content…

Time not only brings money, it occasionally costs money too – especially during maintenance work, which can essentially be accelerated through simple solutions. The engineers at DEPRAG SCHULZ GMBH u. CO. have therefore developed the BASIC LINE compressed air lamella motor, which offers an especially…

Microbiological monitoring is of central importance for GMP-compliant pharmaceutical production. This is especially true for applications where aseptic processes must be monitored as completely as possible.

While in the past, air samples of 1 m³ were taken over relatively short time periods, the Velt…

Leica Microsystems launches the digital microscope Leica DVM6, which is designed for inspection, analysis, and measurement in quality control, quality assurance, failure analysis, research and development, and forensics. Integrated illumination options and PlanApo-corrected optics ensure high qualit…

In order to build and expand image processing and its benefits for industry, the global image processing specialist FRAMOS is supporting several EU-funded projects with research resources and know-how. The Munich-based company is developing complex imaging systems as well as hardware and software so…

fairXperts GmbH & Co. KG appears to have hit the bull’s eye with its concept for DeburringEXPO, a trade fair that’s dedicated to the issues of deburring and polishing. This is not only made apparent by the already star-studded exhibitor list. The exhibitor advisory board, which was founded in Ma…

Whether it’s rotationally-symmetrical workpieces such as shafts, pistons, bearings, and toothed parts, or medical devices such as implants – if strict tolerances have to be met, each product is carefully checked by optical measurement during the production process. But in order to do this, component…
