Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Beneficial!

Pre-Compliance EMC Testing-Beneficial!  This preliminary testing offers many benefits that save time and money in getting a product to the market efficiently.  Firstly, it allows you to spot potential EMC issues during the design process.  This allows you to make adjustments which can eliminate costly redesigns late in the manufacturing process.  These adjustments ultimately save the time and money it takes to "backtrack" to find the issues after the product is nearly complete.  Streamlining product development time is important in...
Conductive Textiles in Healthcare-Medical Advancements!

Metalized Textiles in Healthcare-Versatile!

Metalized Textiles in Healthcare-Versatile!  Among the many advancements that are constantly occurring in the  medical field, Conductive Metalized Textiles have emerged as versatile and indispensable assets.  These textiles, infused or coated with metallic elements, have found many uses in healthcare beyond their well-known shielding properties.  Let's look into some of the most common uses of metalized textiles in the medical arena.  Radiation protection is a must when medical professionals go into radiology departments.  Metalized textile aprons and vests offer a...
Conductive Textile's role in Automotive Innovatiion!

Conductive Textile’s role in Automotive Innovation!

Conductive Textile's role in Automotive Innovation!  Automobiles are becoming increasingly dependent on electronic devices.  Where you find electronic devices, you will often find conductive textiles.  The initial role for conductive textiles in automobiles was shielding the radio from RFI, allowing the radios to play music clearly.  Amazingly, one of the primary applications in the automotive industry is still electromagnetic interference (EMI) and Radio-frequency interference (RFI) shielding.  Due to ever the ever-increasing number of electronic components in vehicles, ensuring smooth operation...

Pre-Compliance Testing in Electronics Development-Crucial!

Pre-Compliance Testing in Electronics Development-Crucial!  In the fast-paced world of electronics, ensuring reliability and compatibility of components is paramount.  This is where Pre-Compliance Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC) testing comes into play.  Pre-Compliance testing involves evaluating electronic components for potential electromagnetic interference (EMI) and electromagnetic susceptibility (EMS) issues prior to undergoing formal/final EMC certification.  Consider it a valuable checkpoint in the development process , saving time, costs, and enhancing the overall quality of the final product. Pre-Compliance Testing in Electronics Development-Crucial!  During Pre-Compliance...

Smart Development includes Pre-Compliance Testing!

Smart Development includes Pre-Compliance Testing!  During product development, it is smart to consider EMC Pre-Compliance Testing.  Every electronic device must pass Final EMC Compliance Testing prior to going to market.  Failure of this test means "back to the drawing board" for your product for "tweaking" prior to making it to the market.  The quicker the Testing is successfully completed, the faster it can be marketed!  Another great reason for testing early and often during development is that Pre-Compliance testing makes...

“Develop” EMC with Pre-Compliance Testing!

"Develop" EMC with Pre-Compliance Testing!  If you're developing new electronic product, you know that it must pass Final EMC Compliance Testing enabling it to go to market.  Many companies develop the product testing it for EMC compliance after development.  This method means that multiple areas may fail the costly Final EMC Compliance test, requiring "backtracking" through developmental steps to determine the reason(s) for failure and re-test the product repeatedly until it passes.  This can be a frustrating proposition, requiring multiple...

RF Shielded Curtains-many Options!

RF Shielded Curtains-many Options!

RF Shielded Curtains-many Options!  RF Shielded Curtains are known for their work in warehousing and inventory management.  They separate a large room into multiple distinct areas, allowing fast and accurate inventories.  This certainly isn't the only use for Shielded curtains.  They allow adding a foyer, division, or a room to an RF Shielded Enclosure, creating mor workspace.  Shielded Curtains are important in telemetry areas of hospitals, keeping the patient's vital signs and medical conditions separate and securely sending them to...
Nothing is "simple"-anymore-needs Change!

Nothing is “simple” anymore-needs Change!

Nothing is "simple" anymore-needs Change!  When I first came to VTT, our manufacturing product line was fairly simple.  RF Shielded Enclosures, RF Shielding Curtains, RF Shielding Garments were about it!  Today, we find that our customers are always finding new and different needs for our conductive textile products.  An RF Shielded enclosure has become a "suite" of rooms with more isolation than ever.  Requests for Foyers, removable walls, are routine requests rather than unusual.  RF Shielding Curtains are now "arrays...

RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters!

RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters!  Electronic devices come in all sizes.  All of the devices require EMC Compliance Testing in order to be marketed.  This testing determines whether the device can work effectively in a shared electromagnetic environment.  All devices emit RFI radiation and electromagnetic fields.  These emissions can adversely affect the function of the other devices.  The problem boils down to two terms, emissions or susceptibility.  The RF emissions of an electronic device must meet certain applicable standards. ...
