Para sus magnetómetros, los ingenieros de diseño de SENSYS buscaban un conector ultrarresistente idóneo para el uso continuo sobre el terreno y sin las limitaciones de los conectores para uso militar (MIL). El Fischer LP360™ de “conectar y usar” satisfacía todos sus requisitos: fácil de manipular, imposible de usar erróneamente, robusto frente al viento y las inclemencias del tiempo, fácil de limpiar y no magnético.

Do you want your connectors to take up less space and handle a broader range of functions? The most common hybrid combination being sought out by the engineering community is power and signal, and whether it’s all copper or a copper/fiber hybrid solution depends specifically on how much data needs to get through the cable. A few tips from the expert.

Our heartfelt thanks go to our suppliers for standing by us throughout this time of crisis.

When you need a waterproof connector, the choice may not be as straightforward as just choosing an IP68-sealed solution. IP68 ratings can differ – for some, IP68 rated can mean as little as 1 meter for 15 minutes. Fischer Connectors’ solutions offer much higher IP68 sealing levels. And this is a decision-making factor for our customers designing harsh-environment connectivity.

Additive manufacturing (very often called “3D printing”) is a key step in the design engineering process, as it enables us to transfer ideas from an abstract world to the physical world in just a few hours. In the same vein, additive manufacturing is a powerful lever when the challenge is to be the first to deliver a Proof of Concept (PoC).

El conector de un canal óptico Fischer FiberOptic FO1 cuenta actualmente con sellado IP68 para 2 m/24 h. Eso es lo que pone en la documentación. No obstante, después de inspeccionarlo, el equipo de Strategic Robotic Systems (SRS) creía que podía dar más de sí para su revolucionario vehículo submarino no tripulado (UUV) FUSION, que funciona a 300 m bajo la superficie. Y estaban en lo cierto.

The mating cycle rating is a key characteristic to consider for rugged connectors. Failing to select a mating cycle rating sufficient for your application could result in a product that is unreliable, short-lived and more costly in the long run… Discover how Fischer Connectors can help extend the potential life span of your devices.

Can you easily mate your connector even if you can’t see it? Don’t let lack of visibility slow you down. Fischer Connectors’ push-pull locking system is designed to reduce the time it takes to mate and unmate your devices. Take the Fischer UltiMate™ and Fischer Freedom™ Series, for example.

The connectors of the Fischer Core Plastic Series are compatible with autoclave, Cidex, EtO, gamma radiation, Steris, and Sterrad sterilization processes, and have been integrated into FDA-approved medical devices. These easy-to-use, lightweight and durable connectors are also ideal for industrial, instrumentation, and food and pharmaceutical processing applications.

Ahora que estamos a punto de lanzar importantes desarrollos de productos concebidos por nuestros equipos de I+D en colaboración con nuestros clientes, queremos presentar nuestro “manifiesto de innovación” en forma de un breve resumen en tres pasos. El objetivo es simple: reimaginar (imaginar de nuevo) la conectividad para la nueva década.

El innovador esterilizador SterOx System de SteriLux utiliza conectores Fischer Core Series por su hermeticidad e idoneidad para aplicaciones de 240 V.

David Ptacek in ConnectorSupplier: “The priorities come from the military robotics projects, but are also important in medical and industrial robots. While smaller in both size and weight, each connectivity solution has to do more: carry more power and more and faster data.”

Ahora más que nunca, una conectividad fiable es crítica para aplicaciones de intervención y cirugía, para tecnologías de diagnóstico e imagen, y para monitorización y tratamiento.
