| Precision Microdrives Releases Worlds Smallest Coin Vibration Motor at 8mm Diameter Posted: 14 Mar 2011 04:37 AM PDT London, United Kingdom, March 14, 2011 –(PR.com)– Precision Microdrives recently introduced the worlds smallest form factor coin vibrator motors into its range of Pico Haptic™ miniature vibrating motors. This development reduces the footprint of the previous smallest coin motor, by 2mm. A small but important step in helping engineers miniaturise handheld designs further. Miniature Vibrator Motors like the 308-100 are used in a very wide range of applications, particularly handheld, where there is a need to alert an operator or user that an event has happened. Unsurprisingly Precision Microdrives class this mode of operation as ‘operator / user alerting’, and the vibrating motor has much the same function as a LED, lamp, buzzer or audio alarm. The benefit of the vibration motors, and vibration tactile feedback in general (also known as haptic feedback) is that it works in situations where users can’t see or hear the device (for whatever reason). The silent profile in most mobile phones is a great example of where vibration tactile feedback can alert users in a wide range of situations, irrespective of where the phone is actually located. That’s the premise of the Pico Haptic™ range of motors. Precision Microdrives manufacture a wide range of vibrator motor form factors in miniature scales from 4mm through to 12mm motors which are easy to integrate into designs. The company offer PCB mounted vibrating motors, including spring connect, reflow SMD and through-hole solder types. Precision Microdrives also produce self-adhesive mounting vibration motors and motors designed with rubber surrounds for easy mounting within enclosures. The new shaftless vibration motor, part-number 308-100 has external dimensions of 8mm diameter x 3.4mm height and weighs just 0.7 grams. The 8mm coin vibration motor is based on the same proven technology as the 10 and 12mm diameter coin motors that offered reliable vibration feedback in mobile phones, handheld instruments and medical devices. Rated at 3v DC, this vibration motor runs at 12,000 RPM (200 Hz) and generates 0.5g (4.91 m/s²) of vibration. The 308-100 has the usual higher guaranteed starting voltage of 2.3v for motors of this type, which is due to the 6-pole voice-coil design. Typical current draw is 100mA, and the motor has a typical vibration efficiency of 3.2 g/W. The motor is quiet by vibration standards with a typical noise output of 50dBA, and has a standard operating temperature of -20°C to 60°C, though these can be extended by request. Physically this coin vibrating motor comes with 45mm AWG32 flying leads and a high strength long life 3M self-adhesive pad on the underside, which is used to secure the motor to the application enclosure or PCB. As with all Precision Microdrives vibration motors, these leads can be modified at request and a range of suitable crimps and connectors can be added to specification by asking the engineering support team at enquiries@precisionmicrodrives.com. About Precision Microdrives The company have successfully introduced many best practice methods of adding / integrating vibration motors into new and existing products, and their website www.precisionmicrodrives.com offers a lot of that detailed best practice knowledge freely for easy and quick viewing. Of course the company also have an experienced customer engineering support team that are available to help designers, engineers and production teams, as they integrate vibration feedback into their designs and products. Often customers want customisations made to vibration motors; this is no problem and Precision Microdrives offer custom modifications from minimum order quantities of 100 pcs upwards. For a modification or two contact the engineering team at enquiries@precisionmicrodrives.com, and they’ll be happy to propose a way forward.

| Man Who Could Help Save Warehouse Management & Distribution Strategies Introduced by To-Increase Posted: 14 Mar 2011 04:36 AM PDT Norwell, MA, March 14, 2011 –(PR.com)– To-Increase, a provider of Warehouse Management Systems (WMS) built on Microsoft Dynamics technology, introduces its blog readers to Kurt Hatlevik, warehouse strategy expert and founder of the new Warehouse Management & Distribution LinkedIn group, in a new blog post. The blog post, Who Will Save Your Warehouse Management & Distribution Strategy, introduces readers to Hatlevik, Executive Business Consultant at Columbus IT. Post author Luciano Cunha, Global Industry Director, To-Increase, describes Hatlevik as a "man who can single-handedly improve warehouse operations for your company, despite the fact that you may never even find yourself in the same room with him." "In December of last year, Kurt opened the Warehouse Management and Distribution group publicly on LinkedIn," writes Cunha. "Within this group, he shares everything from the latest industry articles to real-time answers to your most pressing questions." Cunha points to a recent article by Hatlevik on warehouse slotting as among the most beneficial to readers. Slotting, or identifying ideal placements for items housed within a warehouse or distribution center, sees its value scale up as facilities become larger. But as warehouses become larger, the complexity of slotting grows, resulting in the largest warehouses spending far more on operational costs than necessary." "Fortunately, Kurt offers several slotting solutions designed to help warehouses increase ROI," continues Cunha. "These include space maximization, dynamic slotting and directed put-away. These solutions, combined with the balance offered by Hatlevik, carry the potential to save warehouses 10-30% on operational costs." To read the balance of Hatlevik’s insight into warehouse slotting, and for information on joining his dedicated LinkedIn group, read the complete post, "Who Will Save Your Warehouse Management & Distribution Strategy?" by visiting To-Increase blog at http://blog.to-increase.com/save-your-warehouse-management-strategy/.
