The emergent contradictions in the relationship between humans and the environment have been problematic for centuries. Unrestricted consumption has led to a crisis placing humanity on the verge of an environmental disaster. The Troventum project aims to address this potential disaster by decreasing the amount of non-recycled waste, improving the quality of recycling, switching the waste recycling industry to a new, and innovative development track. The project will allow resolution of the majority of global issues of the waste processing industry: • Insufficient consumer motivation for waste collection; • Difficulties organizing waste collection and its low efficiency; • Shortage of…

10nm pattern generation using thermal scanning probe lithography enabled by simplified materials and processes Thermal scanning probe lithography (tSPL) has been used to create patterns with sub-20 nm half pitch resolution. Pattern generation uses a thermally sensitive resist and spin coatable hard mask materials to transfer the resist patterns. Spin coatable materials permit users of tSPL to reduce time and cost of the patterning process. NanoFrazor lithography Thermal scanning probe lithography (tSPL), also termed NanoFrazor lithography, is based on heated atomic force microscope (AFM) tips to create lithographic patterns by locally evaporating a thermally sensitive resist. This process enables…

Every surgery is different, so your operating table needs to be smart and adaptable. Merivaara has unveiled one of the world’s most versatile operating tables for elective procedures. The new, smarter Practico was designed to improve ergonomics with the industry’s widest range of posture possibilities. “Customers have been asking for a table like this for years,” says Jyrki Nieminen, Merivaara’s R&D director. “It has been in development for two years and we have received amazing feedback regarding the design, aesthetics and technical specifications.” Flexibility for different needs Flexible, mobile operating tables are in high demand…

WJS launch a new unique feature: Micro cutting for everyone! To cut narrow incisions in hard materials with high precision requires a specially developed waterjet cutting process. FAWJ stands for Fine Abrasive Water Jet (micro waterjet, finecut), and is a unique and world-class cutting process launched back in 2008 by Water Jet Sweden. Since then, the technique has been applied to a specially developed precision machinery, designed to manufacture micro-components. Now we broaden the possibilities and launch The FAWJ Micro Head Package to our ordinary machine models. It is designed for customers who wish to cut fine parts with narrow…
