Smart Product Development, Think EMC from the Start!
Smart Product Development, Think EMC from the Start! Developing a new electronic product is challenging. There are many components in most devices. These components must work together in a shared electronic environment. This environment must allow all components to function optimally TOGETHER. EMC is obtained by fine tuning the components during development. A coach develops a team, making sure plays work in training before the big game. The coaches work with each player, making sure they can execute their job...

EMC Testing made easy, VTT has an EMC Testing Enclosure for You!
EMC Testing made easy! EMC testing used to be difficult in many ways. The Certified Testing Facilities were few and far between. Testing schedules were full, and the testing was expensive. Unfortunately, all of the above-mentioned conditions are still true. The advent of portable EMC Testing Enclosures eased things. Pre-Compliance testing can now be accomplished in your own facility! Testing can also be done "early and often" during development! This Pre-Compliance testing allows EMC problems to be corrected BEFORE they...

Testing for EMC, Plan for Future needs Now!
Testing for EMC, Plan for Future needs Now! The business year is coming to a close. A New Year is just around the corner! Now is the time to plan for next year's needs! Your products, testing standards, and materials are going to change. Time waits for no one; it marches steadily forward. The general types of EMC testing will remain the same: Emissions- The amount of RFI that the Device Under Testing (DUT) is allowed to emit may decrease. ...

EMC Testing “Early and Often”, makes great Sense in Product Development!
EMC Testing "Early and Often" makes great sense in product development! In today's environment of complex electronic devices, EMC is paramount! All the components must work smoothly together to make a great product! Too much RF noise can decrease the function of a device. EVERY device emits RF/EMI noise. There are EMC standards in every industry, automotive, aerospace, and the military. A device must live up to the appropriate EMC standards in order to be used. EMC Testing "Early and Often"...

Robust Conductive Textiles, ready for Rough Conditions!
Robust Conductive Textiles, ready for rough conditions! Conductive textiles have long been used in excellent RF Shielding applications. The difficulty has always been that these conductive textiles are delicate, thin and tear easily. Seaman Corporation from Wooster, Ohio has continuously manufactured durable high performance coated textiles for decades. These coated textiles are used for roofing solutions, architectural structures, tents and tarps for the military, and Geomembranes. The marriage of Conductive Textiles and a Ruggedized Coating to protect them seemed like...

RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy!
RF Shielding Curtains Provide Security, Separation, and Privacy! RF Shielding Curtains provide a reduced ambient environment needed in many different situations. Their uses include medical facilities, assembly line testing stations, isolation of warehouse RF Sensors, and even architectural shielding! They also reduce cross talk between adjacent testing stations, maintaining RF security, and data integrity. These curtains allow in situ aerospace and automotive EMC testing to be accomplished in the low ambient environment required for this type of testing.
