Medical imaging company Esaote and The BioRobotics Institute of Scuola Superiore Sant’Anna in Pisa, Italy, have developed a new robotic cell to help optimize the testing of ultrasound probes. The robotic cell, under the guidance of an operator, is able to direct the transducer and certify its effectiveness.CRP welding robot
The outcomes of this collaboration were summarized in the report “Pulse-echo test for medical imaging ultrasound probe and collaborative robot: performance and usability”, written by Marco Controzzi, Michele Bacchereti and Francesco Clemente of The BioRobotics Institute, and Andrea Grandoni, Lorenzo Francalanci and Alessandro Fabbrizzi of Esaote.
The robotic cell allows cooperation between human labor and advanced automation systems. This offers an integrated solution, and it makes the tests more efficient and traceable. The robotic cell consists of a collaborative robotic arm with a gripper that can verify the correct position of the probes with the help of on operator. Esaote said this is an important step towards the automation of the process that allows users to have more precise data about the repeatability and the operation of the probe. Currently, all of the tests take place manually, with the only intervention of the operator.
“The robotic cell has reached two goals,” said Marco Controzzi, researcher at The BioRobotics Institute. “The first is to automate the procedure for the operation of the tests; the second is to keep in the foreground the role of man. Esaote operators will interact with the robot, supporting it during the tests. This line of research reflects the mission of “Human-Robot-Interaction”, the laboratory of Collaborative Robotics of The BioRobotics Institute. We imagine a synergy between men and robots, combining the advantages of manual production with precision and repeatability of automation.”

The use of hollow/microporous yarns plays an important role in enhancing the thermo‐physiological comfort properties of fabrics. Depending on structural variations in hollow yarn, heat and moisture regulation behaviours of fabrics can be affected significantly. In this study, three types of hollow cotton yarn fabrics, produced by introducing polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) filament in the core, PVA staple fibres in the blend and PVA filament in doubling with cotton spun yarn, are studied. All three types of pre‐hollow yarns and reference yarns are made with a variation in spinning technique (single roving/double roving) to prepare eight single jersey knitted fabrics. The hollow/microporous structure of the yarn is created by dissolving the PVA fibres using hot washing of the fabrics. On overall evaluation of the fabric’s thermo‐physiological comfort properties, the doubled hollow yarn fabrics are found to be better than other fabrics. In general, thermal resistance, thermal absorptivity, wicking and drying properties of all types of hollow yarn fabrics increase after repeated laundering, while air permeability, water vapour permeability and water absorbency of hollow yarn fabrics mostly decrease. In contrast with fabrics made from yarn produced through single roving technique, use of double roving technique only improves fabric water vapour permeability.hollow core Yarn

New to the fashion world? Welcome :) To help catch you up to speed, virtue + vice is offering free mini-courses. We will be releasing a new chapter bi-monthly. The courses will take you from the very first step in the fashion supply chain, textile fibers, all the way through to the finished product in stores. Our first crash course is TEXTILES 101. The fifth topic of TEXTILES 101 What Are Textile Yarns?Polypropylene yarn uses

Yarns and threads are not the same thing. Threads are for sewing and are what hold pieces of fabric together. Yarns are what make up a fabric.

By definition, yarns are groups of fibers that are twisted together to form one continuous strand. These strands can then be interlaced together to form a woven fabric or looped together to create a knit fabric.Yarns are a textile development specialists secret weapon because they have the biggest impact on the final look of the fabric. It's where we can really get creative.

The inventions of yarn plays a crucial role in human-kinds evolution. The first yarns were made from animal fibers for ropes and nets which made hunting possible. Around this time there was also the discovery of fire and the wheel. These three discoveries helped to propel early humans into an age of modern progress.
Spun yarns are made from staple length fibers. Staple fiber are short fibers only a couple of inches long - like cotton. But, long filament fibers can also be cut up into staple length. To make a spun yarn, first, all of the fibers need to face the same direction (we will get to how that is done in a minute), mechnical twisting then holds the fibers together.

Diolen Industrial Fibers is offering a high-tenacity multifilament made with Fortron polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), which is produced by Fortron Industries LLC, a joint venture of Ticona Engineering Polymers and Kureha Corporation. This high-performance yarn, called Diofort, is inherently flame-retardant, has high durability, toughness and chemical resistance, and withstands extremely hot environments that can stress conventional multifilaments to their performance limits. nylon multifilament yarn

Diofort multifilament is used to reinforce hydraulic oil hoses in power steering systems where it helps to reduce vibration and noise. It also can be applied in other vehicle systems, such as fuel lines and charge-air coolers, to provide resistance to high pressure and temperature while allowing for hose flexibility. Other possible applications range from industrial filter systems for flue gases and aggressive liquids to composites for aerospace systems.

Diolen makes Diofort yarn in a multi-stage process. After plasticizing and extruding Fortron PPS in a multifilament extruder at the desired diameter, individual filaments undergo controlled stretching in a well-defined temperature range. This yields a high-tenacity multifilament yarn having excellent mechanical properties for use as reinforcement or in fabrics, nonwovens or other textiles. The yarns can be combined with glass, carbon and other polymer fibers to yield blended fabrics.

Fortron PPS gives the Diofort yarns and their fabrics excellent chemical resistance to withstand aggressive media, low water absorption, high strength to 190°C (about 375°F) and flame retardancy.

Technological advances and innovation have contributed extensively to the development and growth of the global packaging machinery market. Packaging is an essential and strategic element of any business, which plays a very important role in consumer decisions. Product packaging is not an afterthought, but part of the signature of the company.

The global market for packaging machines is very fragmented and extremely competitive due to the presence of a large number of market players. However, we are talking about a very profitable market, which has very promising figures when looking to the future. The Europe Packaging Machinery Market Assessment 2017 Report foresees that the European packaging market’s value will reach 9.6€ billions in 2020. automatic granule packing machine

Regarding the sectors, some of the main applications of packaging machinery are pharmaceuticals, food and beverages, chemicals and personal care products.

According to the same report, it is precisely the food and beverage industry that occupies a priority position in terms of profitability. There are many factors that should be taken into account. The first one is the vast increase in consumption of packaged food products worldwide. The demand for attractive and innovative packaging from the food and beverage industry will also play a big role in this scenario. In addition, there will be a greater interest in different formats (multipack and single-dose) and new materials for sustainable packaging. The growing interest of companies to offer innovative packaging in order to attract large numbers of consumers will offer profitable opportunities to key players in the global packaging machine market.

The growth of production in the market will be accompanied by a greater focus on issues such as safety, hygiene, and energy efficiency. One of the key trends in the global packaging market will be the focus on reducing the amount of material used. Specifically, the reduction in the number of harmful polymers used in packaging will be a particularly relevant issue. Sensitivity to the environment will be essential. The tendency will be to concentrate efforts on the use of packaging materials capable of preventing food and drink contamination, materials which can be recyclable, biodegradable and reusable.

From a geographic point of view and up to 2020, Europe confirms its position in the market, accounting for 50% of the world production. In Europe, 60% of packaging machinery production comes from Italy and Germany. North America should see substantial growth throughout the forecast period and represents a key share of the overall market. The high growth of this region can be attributed to the presence of a large number of players operating in the market. On the other hand, Asia Pacific should see significant growth in the near future, thanks to the growing number of players investing in this region and the growing demand for packaging machinery in various sectors.
