Porsche cars have a unique system of model numbering. The high-performance, rear-engine 911 was followed by the economy, mid-engine 914 co-developed with Volkswagen. A few years later, Porsche introduced the front-engine, eight cylinder 928 luxury tourer.
Minco will be demoing SmartHeat SLT™ heaters at MD&M West, North America’s biggest medical device technology trade show. MD&M features nearly 20,000 attendees and over 1,900 exhibitors. It’s a premiere gathering of industry professionals sharing their latest products and technologies and it is the perfect venue to show off this unique product.
If you specify or design flexible printed circuits, you’ll want to check out the latest version of Minco’s Flex Circuit Design Guide. It includes sections on standard design recommendations, material tolerances, value-adds, and manufacturing tips. It’s the perfect resource for working with Minco to build a high-reliability flex circuit.
In today’s competitive world of electronic manufacturing, each generation of product must be lighter and more compact than its predecessor. And not just consumer electronics – industrial, medical, and defense OEMs continually look to shave off inches and pounds.
Quick and easy prototyping of heater/sensor systems is often a challenge. Enter Minco’s CT425 controller. The CT425 consists of epoxy-sealed electronics in a non-conductive plastic casing, with a pair of terminal blocks, a USB-B port, a pair of status LEDs, as well as two relays and a logic output.
Minco is great because it is international focused. This focus is important for providing great service to customers as well as providing interesting opportunities and rewarding challenges for its employees.
Earlier this year, Minco was approached by Edina High School students looking for help with a project. The students were participating in their school’s Project Lead the Way (PLTW) engineering program, a series of semester-long classes that introduce students to engineering principles and expose them to different areas of engineering.
Safety and quality are critical in virtually all industries, but particularly so when lives are at stake, such as in the aerospace industry. Minco has made a major commitment to the aerospace industry and supplies components for a variety of applications in both air and space.
There’s no doubt about it, the engineering world is rife with obscure jargon and technical terminology. Even engineers might scratch their heads if it’s a term from outside their specialty. Not only are a lot of these terms simply unfamiliar, sometimes a word means one thing in one industry and something else altogether in a different one.
Minco commits to continuous quality improvement, not only in terms of processes and materials, but also when it comes to the tools we use. We’re constantly building new machines, modifying existing ones, and upgrading our technology to keep abreast of industry standards.
For more than 60 years, Minco has designed and manufactured heating, flex circuit, temperature sensing and instrumentation solutions for some of the world’s most demanding applications.
Thermal performance for standard and custom use cases — from environment stabilization to faster thermal cycling.
Accurately sense and measure temperature, humidity and fluid levels across a wide range of applications.
Achieve new design freedom with flex circuit solutions that improve reliability in a condensed package size.
System-matched controllers complement Minco sensors and heaters to deliver improved system accuracy.
