In high-speed control systems, IMU performance depends on more than accuracy or data rate. Discover how noise, bandwidth, and latency affect stabilization and tracking, and explore Gladiator Technologies’ SX3 platform for advanced low-noise inertial sensing.
Selecting MEMS inertial sensors for loitering munitions, UAVs, and unmanned systems requires careful consideration of accuracy, weight, vibration, temperature, and electrical interfaces. This article explores key engineering challenges and compares three Gladiator Technologies solutions: the GA50 accelerometer, G150Z analog gyroscope, and G400D three-axis digital gyroscope.
Explore HERGA MD1G and MD2G medical footswitches with UL 60601-1 certification, modular designs, and IPX7 protection for surgical systems, electrosurgery, and OEM medical devices. Includes technical specifications and an engineering case study.
A difference of just 0.05 mm can cause assembly failure in a worm gear transmission. Explore shaft and bearing tolerances, H8 bore fits, interference fits, fastening methods, and practical engineering considerations for reliable mechanical assemblies.
How can a fume extraction system detect a clogged filter before airflow performance is significantly affected? This article explains how pressure switches, vacuum switches and differential pressure monitoring can be used for filter condition monitoring, maintenance alerts and condition-based maintenance in industrial and OEM systems.
Modern HVAC/R and Thermal Management systems require more than temperature control alone. This article explores how Temperature Sensors, Pressure Transducers, Thermostats, and Thermal Motor Protectors work together to provide Measurement, Control, and Protection, including a practical Case Study for an electronic cooling system in a specialty vehicle.
Heavy Duty Foot Control design for specialty vehicles starts long before selecting a part number. Momentary or Latching operation, ON/OFF vs. Proportional Control, Guards, safety shoes, environmental conditions, cables and connectors are all part of the engineering process. This guide explains how to define the requirements and select the right Foot Control for the operator, the vehicle and the application.
Heavy Duty Controls are an essential part of Special Purpose Vehicles, Mobile Equipment, construction machinery, defense systems, and other demanding applications. This article explores when to use a Footswitch, how to choose between Guarded and Unguarded designs, which environmental and ergonomic factors should be considered, and how the Herga 6256 can be integrated into Heavy Duty applications where the operator’s hands are already occupied.
Footswitches can provide an additional control channel in vehicles, mobile equipment, and heavy-duty machinery when the operator’s hands need to remain on the primary controls. Learn how to select the right Heavy Duty Footswitch by considering PTT, Momentary vs. Latching operation, Guard options, environmental protection, proportional control, and system integration.
