In the vast expanse of space, where extreme temperatures, vacuum conditions, and radiation are the norm, maintaining the functionality of sensitive instruments is paramount. Flexible
Having discrete sensors and heaters can complicate thermal management. In ideal configurations, a heater heats a heat sink and a sensor attaches to the sink
Mica and cartridge heaters have similar uses, but they each have unique properties that can make the choice easier. Here’s a simple rundown.
Precision is a big part of temperature control. Engineers need heating systems that can keep critical devices operating at optimal temperatures, from in-flight sensors on
In applications where uniform heating is a priority, mica heaters provide an efficient, cost-effective solution. They’re an excellent option for custom-designed heaters that run toward
All-Polyimide heaters serve as Minco’s high-performance alternative to standard polyimide heaters
Minco’s SmartHeat SLT™ heaters are one of the most exciting innovations in thermal management available today. SmartHeat is self-limiting, meaning it maintains a setpoint with no sensor or controller needed, using a unique polymer innerlay to regulate the temperature.
In today’s competitive markets, manufacturers are always looking for ways to cut costs, slash time to market, and improve product performance. But while component buyers are price sensitive, they also look at measures like total cost of ownership, reliability, performance, and customization.
The marketing team at Minco is excited to share our latest project: The Engineer’s Corner podcast. We sat down with five experts to discuss one of our most fascinating products: SmartHeat SLT™ self-limiting heaters.
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.
