even flexible materials.
We are one of the world's leading suppliers of equipment and services to packaging and label manufacturers in the folding carton, corrugated board and
flexible materials industries.
The compliant wings of a bat - like flapping robot flapping at lower frequencies (7 - 10 Hz vs. 100 - 300 Hz of quadrotors) are inherently safe: because their wings comprise
primarily flexible materials and are able to collide with one another, or with obstacles in their environment, with little or no damage.»
One of the key innovations was the development of a
black flexible material that included a mesh of carbon nanotubes enclosed within clinical grade silicone precisely applied to an optical fibre.
This research, says Cheung, «presents a general strategy for increasing the performance of highly compliant — that is, «soft» — robots and mechanisms,» by replacing
conventional flexible materials with new cellular materials «that are much lower weight, more tunable, and can be made to dissipate energy at much lower rates» while having equivalent stiffness.
Dr. Jeroen van den Brand, Program Manager at Holst Centre / TNO adds to this, «Our research focusses on integrating sensors and electronics
into flexible materials, without compromising the characteristics of these materials.
It is among the strongest, most lightweight and
flexible materials known, and has the potential to revolutionise industries from healthcare to electronics.
In a planar magnetic setup, the part that actually creates sound is an electrostatic - style thin,
flexible material sandwiched between the outer layers of the mechanism.
BOBST equipment for the production
of flexible material packaging can process the following categories of materials:
This 8» toss and retrieve toy is made from a soft and
flexible material which means it will be easy on your pup's teeth and gums but is super sturdy.
Apple envisions that the curved display will be made
from flexible material that can present «an illusion of depth perception» capable of «mimicking a 3D experience.»
Between the two layers are cavities filled with any transparent substance that could expand or contract: a liquid (water, glycerin or ethylene glycol), a gas (air, nitrogen or argon) or any
other flexible material, according to the patent.
While such a device still faces substantial obstacles before wide - scale implementation, two teams of researchers have announced innovations combining standard electronics
with flexible materials that may bring the futuristic concept closer to reality.
A German brand, Jäger und Sammler, has chosen Innovia Films»
compostable flexible material, NatureFlex ™ as the packaging for its range of premium energy..
The report focuses on the segment of the industry that adds significant value to
flexible materials, usually by performing multiple processes such as printing, laminating multiple layers, and adding coatings, all of which aid in performance of the material, improve the consumer / user experience, and / or extend the shelf life of the product.
These include technologies to drive recycling and collection and auto - sortation at scale of
flexible materials; investigate new materials including compostable or bio-based structures; and enhance processing technologies that extend and increase consumer participation.
Furthermore, by combining PLA containing Biomax ® Strong 120 with layers of
flexible materials, it's feasible to design PLA - based packaging structures that produce no more noise than conventional packages, according to Casarino.
