Compliance Test Tension? An RF Shielded Enclosure by V Technical Textiles, Inc. can Ease the Stress!
We all know that final EMI Compliance Testing can be a tense time. Time has been invested in development, design, prototyping, and now it is time to find out if your device is compliant with applicable ElectroMagnetic Compliance (EMC) standards. You drive the three hour trip to the testing site on your appointed day. Of course, the line has formed and "they're running a little behind today", so you wait for your turn. You hand your device over to the...

“Hardening Structures”-Protecting our Country’s Vital Electronics-Based Systems!
ElectroMagnetic Pulses (EMPs), transient electromagnetic disturbances, evoke the Orwellian thoughts of nuclear explosions that are capable of short-circuiting a wide range of electronic equipment, including computers, satellites, radios, radar receivers, and even traffic lights, plunging the world into the "electronic dark ages". Though a nuclear weapon is the most commonly thought of cause of an EMP, they can also be caused by solar flares, a close lightning strike, or a massive powerline short circuit. The damage to electrical equipment can...

Portable RF Shielded Enclosures Provided Work from Home Applications During Covid-19
When Covid-19 hit North America in March, it closed down a lot of our businesses, but many businesses and individuals were able to continue to do work from home or other remote locations during the quarantine/social distancing period of this pandemic. The "Work From Home" #wfh group, were often able to continue their work with the use of RF Shielded Enclosures and pouches. One didn't need to be in the electronics development business to benefit from these enclosures. Government and Business...

The Constant Increase of Electronic Devices makes the Shielding Industry Very Important in Achieving EMC!
We have more electronic devices than ever before in this world, each of them adding to the invisible cloud of E-Smog that surrounds us all. More of these devices are being developed all of the time, with the development in cellular infrastructure for the 5G and 6G communications systems....yes, I said 6G!!! That doesn't include the aerospace and automotive industries as today's aircrafts and automobiles are essentially controlled and driven with the aid of complex electronic devices and the consumer...

Silverized Fabrics, Comfortable to Wear and Beneficial to Your Health as Well!!
V Technical Textiles, Inc. provides a line of clothing made with Silverized knits and fabrics. These conductive metalized textiles make the clothing more comfortable, as the silver is a great conductor of heat. This conductivity spreads the natural body heat that it absorbs throughout the surface of the garment, creating an even and balanced body temperature, lessening the presence of "hot spots and cold spots", and making the wearer feel more comfortable. This "balancing" of the body temperature increases circulation,...

What can Metalized Textiles do for You? Your Imagination is the only Limit!
Since the founding of V Technical Textiles, Inc., it has been the world's single largest distributor of electrically conductive fabrics and notions. Many people have no idea what metalized textiles are used for. When they first came out, metalized textiles were used largely in electrical manufacturing in the aerospace, automotive, electronics industries as ESD carpeting, EMI shielded gaskets and quickly evolved into shielding materials in electronic devices to stop RF Interference from affecting the proper function of these sensitive electronic...

RF Protective Suit, Protection for 5G Workers, Microwave Workers and Maintenance Personnel!
Most of us know that we are surrounded by RF radiation all of the time. This radiation is of the non-ionizing variety, meaning that it lacks the energy to damage the DNA of a cell and cause mutations. RF is routinely absorbed by the body and the effects of this absorption are called "thermal effects", basically much as a microwave oven can heat water, RF radiation can rapidly warm the body. The eyes and the testes are most vulnerable to...
