Machine Simulation
CGTech, Irvine, CA, released VERI-CUT 9.0 3D solids-based CNC machine simulation and optimization software. It detects errors, potential collisions, or areas of inefficiency and depicts multiaxis milling/drilling as well as multi-axis turning and combination mill/turn machining. It operates independently but can also be integrated with leading CAM systems. Inefficient motion or programming errors that could potentially ruin a part, damage the fixture, or break the cutting tool can be corrected before the program is run on a CNC machine tool.

Adapter Boards
ACCES I/O Products, San Diego, CA, announced the 104e-mPCIe family of PCIe/104 carrier modules. The adapter boards allow users to install PCI Express Mini Cards (mPCIe) into new and existing PCIe/104 embedded systems. The boards are Type 1 or Type 2 PCIe/104 carrier boards designed to support up to four PCI Express mini cards in either half or full lengths. The advanced model converts one PCIe x1 lane from the PCIe/104 stack into four mPCIe sockets, while the standard version converts four PCIe x1 lanes from the stack into four mPCIe sockets.

Oscilloscope
Pico Technology, Tyler, TX, introduced the PicoScope 9404-16 SXRTO, a 16-GHz, sampler-extended, real-time oscilloscope. It features four high-resolution, 12-bit channels, each supported by real-time sampling to 500 MS/s per channel and up to 5 TS/s (0.2 ps) equivalent-time sampling. The wideband inputs can display and measure transitions as fast as 22 ps and pulses and impulses down to 45 ps wide. The USB-controlled instrument is supplied with PicoSample 4 software that controls the instrument and presents waveforms, measurements, and statistics.

Pressure Sensors
Bourns, Riverside, CA, offers the Model BPS140 pressure sensors based on MEMS technology. They can handle high pressure ranges (15 to 500 PSI) even at high temperatures. The sensors’ structure is combined with back-side pressure measurement that minimizes the number of media-sensitive wetted materials, ensuring that the measured media only touches the back side of the measurement element. The sensors work in a temperature range of -40 to 150 °C.
