After more than a year of social distancing, MadgeTech is gearing up for back-to-back tradeshows starting on Thursday with the American Association of Meat Processors (AAMP) Convention followed by the International Association of Food Protection (IAFP).

From July 15^th – 19^th, MadgeTech will be in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma for the 82^nd AAMP Convention (booth 103), North America’s largest meat trade organizat

MadgeTech, a leading manufacturer of data loggers worldwide, is known for its innovations in wireless technology, cloud services and real-time monitoring. Recently, MadgeTech introduced the X-Series, comprised of three-dozen multi-channel data loggers for the measurement and recording of temperature, voltage and current.

The new series features several significant improvements, including the flexibility to disable channels to enhance memory capacity, the elimination of an interface

Many of the devices and instrumentation utilized in critical industries are highly sensitive, so sensitive that minor changes in position or environmental conditions can render them useless. Critical devices must be routinely monitored and calibrated against traceable standards to ensure accuracy and minimize uncertainty.

It’s important to note that each device is held to its own standard for calibration and may not require the same accuracy. For example, a device used in the ma

The need to moderate temperatures of sensitive products to maintain their intended purpose is becoming increasingly important. Depending on how sensitive a product is, experts acknowledge that slight changes in temperature do not always have a negative effect. However, to guarantee the extent of temperature fluctuations, a thermal buffer is needed.  

Thermal buffers are substances that act as a regulator to prevent false readings that may occur. In order to maintain the

MadgeTech is back at it, expanding the scope of its ISO/IEC 17025:2017 calibration accreditation, yet again. Recent certifications by the ANSI National Accreditation Board allow MadgeTech to broaden calibration ranges for relative humidity from 10% to 90%.

The ISO/IEC 17025 accreditation assures

There are different ways to measure pressure, which is the applied force to an object or area. Two of the most common pressure measurements are gauge and absolute, but there’s often some confusion about the difference between the two.

Healthcare workers and emergency responders have recently experienced a shortage of personal protective equipment (PPE) due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Since access to new PPE was nearly impossible, researchers began looking for effective ways to sterilize PPE for reuse.

Temperature mapping for warehouses is one thing that shouldn’t be overlooked. In warehouses, especially larger facilities, temperature and humidity levels tend to fluctuate which can cause unstable conditions for perishable goods. Since storage requirements vary from product to product, warehouse mapping studies are necessary to prevent product and monetary loss.

Warehouse mapping entails determining if the area meets the product requirements for the type(s) of goods be

Background
Founded in 2018, Multiscale Systems is an advanced materials and manufacturing firm located in Worcester, Massachusetts. Instead of creating new materials through costly chemical or molecular engineering, Multiscale Systems uses mechanical metamaterial technology to embed complex 3D geometric patterns into conventional materials to create new functionality.

A vehicle’s Controller Area Network System, or CAN, is the system that connects all of the essential Electrical Control Units, or ECUs. At its core, it is a centralized network of communications that allows the vehicle to operate and function. It does this by providing each individual system with the ability to communicate with one another.

While the overall system of the CAN bus is rather complex, its purpose and operation are basic. The CAN acts as a centralized hub which allo
