Throughout its 107-year history, Cornell Dubilier Electronics Inc. (CDE) has placed great importance on manufacturing quality power capacitors, which are passive electrical components that temporarily store electrical energy in an electric field.

Miniature force sensors ensure quality of touchscreens, buttons and other electronic assemblies.

At the heart of some of the most complex automated assembly systems is one of the simplest motion control mechanisms: the cam.

Enhanced process-control, preheating and data-gathering capabilities make vibration welding an even better choice for joining thermoplastic parts.

Shape memory alloys offer numerous benefits, but cause assembly headaches.

State-of-the-art screwdriving technology is enabling automakers to maximize their use of friction-drilling screws.

One year ago, the Bourgault Industries’ plant in St. Brieux, SK, had no assembly line—just a 396-by-32-by-9-foot pit.

Accurate and timely performance data is just as important to manufacturers as the latest welding technology, super-strong adhesive or unique-thread fastener.
