Exxelia Micropen agrandit son site de production à Honeoye Falls

Augmentation de la demande dans les dispositifs médicaux, l'aérospatiale et l'électronique, pour Exxelia Micropen


Pour répondre à la demande actuelle et future, Exxelia Micropen a achevé la construction de son installation de Honeoye Falls de plus de 20 %. Parmi l'ajout de 9 000 m², l’agrandissement comprend 5 000 m² de salle blanche, permettant à l'entreprise de doubler la capacité de ses opérations de fabrication.

 

Exxelia Micropen utilise sa technologie exclusive pour "imprimer" des lignes ultra-précises d'encres conductrices sur des surfaces tridimensionnelles et flexibles, y compris des dispositifs médicaux avancés. La technologie est également utilisée pour fabriquer des résistances hautes performances pour un large éventail d'applications exigeantes dans les domaines de l'aérospatiale, de l'imagerie et de l'électronique. Depuis 2017, l'entreprise a connu une croissance à deux chiffres chaque année alors que la demande pour ses services innovants d'ingénierie, de conception et de fabrication s'est intensifiée.

 

"Alors que nous continuons à développer de nouveaux partenariats pour répondre aux besoins uniques des clients à travers le monde, la taille des locaux ne répondait plus aux besoins",

"L'expansion nous permet d'augmenter nos volumes de production tout en continuant à fournir les technologies innovantes

et les délais de service et de livraison exceptionnels sur lesquels nos clients comptent."

a déclaré Ed Petrazzolo, PDG d'Exxelia Micropen.

 

Exxelia Micropen s'est associé à Hamilton Stern Construction et Hanlon Architects pour l'agrandissement, qui a commencé au printemps. En plus de l'espace de fabrication, le projet comprend un nouveau hall, une salle de repos pour les employés et davantage d'espace de bureau. Le parking est également passé à 140 places.

 

« L'agrandissement des installations d'Exxelia Micropen est un excellent exemple du succès de notre service de conception-construction, qui offre aux clients une expérience cohérente pour gagner du temps et réduire les coûts », a déclaré Justin Hamilton, directeur, Hamilton Stern . « Notre partenariat étroit avec Hanlon Architects, Marathon Engineering et Exxelia Micropen a permis de réaliser ce projet en 13 mois environ, tout en maintenant pleinement les volumes de production de l'installation. Nous sommes reconnaissants de la confiance d'Exxelia Micropen dans notre entreprise pour faire partie de leur croissance continue".

 

"Nous sommes fiers de ce que nous avons construit à Honeoye Falls", a déclaré Petrazzolo. « Les employés talentueux que nous sommes en mesure de recruter dans la région de Rochester sont essentiels à notre succès et l'expansion ne fait que renforcer notre engagement à développer davantage notre présence locale".

Boost your project with Exxelia film capacitors with reduced delivery times!

We are pleased to announce that certain products in our RA and KM film capacitor series, as well as our special PMR range (for the medical and railway markets), now benefit from reduced delivery times.   Reduced lead times for film capacitors of the RA (Polypropylene PP) and KM (Polyphenylene sulfide PPS) families: Indeed, delivery times for film capacitors in the RA and KM ranges have been considerably reduced. Previously, these products had an average lead time of 20 weeks, but through efforts to optimize our supply chain, we have managed to reduce this lead time to just 8 weeks on average! One of the key product of this range is the KM 111 S/T. This high performance film capacitor is ideal for a wide range of applications, such as power electronics, filters, inverters. The KM 111 S/T provides the precise capacitance value needed for special aviation electromechanical applications. With its high operating voltage and high energy density, the KM 111 S/T offers outstanding performance. And now, with a lead time reduced to just 8 weeks, you can incorporate it into your designs faster, accelerating your product development. Products KM 111 KM 21 KM 311 KM 50 KM 501 KM 531 KM 601 KM 62 KM 7 T KM 7 C KM 711 KM 78 KM 78R KM 82 KM 82 RS KM 90 KM 90P KM 94 KM 97 KM 31 KM 511 KM 531 KM 90T KM 90P Products RA 01 RA 02 RA 03 RA 04 RA 11 RA 12 RA 13 RA 14 RA 21 RA 22 RA 23 RA 24 RA 31 RA 32 RA 33 RA 34 RA 75   A revolution in delivery times with the film capacitors of the PMR (Polyphenylene Sulfide PPS) family: Our special PMR range, designed for medical and railway applications, also saw a significant improvement in its delivery times. In some cases, we have been able to reduce the usual delivery times for these specific products by a factor of 10. This means you can now get the PMR range film capacitors you need in record time! Film capacitors in the PMR range are specifically designed to meet the stringent requirements of medical and railway applications. Their reliability, stability, and extended life make them ideal choices for medical equipment, monitoring devices, rail transportation systems, and more. Thanks to our reduced delivery times, you can now benefit from these advantages without waiting long to receive your products.   PMR EFCO PMR 4 PMR 64

Exxelia's Smart Magnetic: Breakthrough technology for more compact and powerful converters

This advance makes it possible to design more compact, lighter converters. However, the advantages of this technology are not limited to these fundamental aspects. In this article, we will explore in detail the multiple functional, economic and environmental benefits offered by Exxelia's Smart Magnetic technology.   Functional advantages for increased reliability: The Smart Magnetics project makes it possible in particular to optimize the Dual Active Bridge topology which requires the combination of a transformer and a choke. The Dual Active Bridge converter is a technology that is becoming widespread because it allows bidirectional power transmission. This meets the challenges of electrical systems (recovery + supply of energy), Integrating the Dual Active Bridge (DAB) transformer and choke into a single component has significant functional advantages. Unlike assembling two separate components, using an integrated component eliminates interconnections. The repeatability and reproducibility of the processes guarantee perfect control of the electrical characteristics, and ensure optimum performance of the converter. In addition, this consolidation reduces the number of components required, which improves the reliability of the final product.   Rationalization of the value chain for optimized production costs: The Smart Magnetic project also contributes to improving the value chain through effective streamlining. By replacing two distinct components with a single component, the management of the components of the circuit is simplified. From the customer's point of view, there is only one product to supply, one product to integrate/assemble in the system. These simplifications result in high added value and increased competitiveness on the market.   Contribution to a more environmentally friendly industry: By adopting Smart Magnetic solutions, the benefits go beyond simply improving energy efficiency. This innovation also reduces the consumption of raw materials by using less material in the Smart Magnetic component compared to standard formats requiring two separate components. As a result, this technology contributes to the preservation of natural resources. In addition, Smart Magnetic responds to the challenges posed by the electrification of vehicles, whether in air, land or sea transport, by promoting the deployment of solutions that are less dependent on fossil fuels.   Various applications: The versatility of Smart Magnetic solutions makes it suitable for many applications. For example, it can be used as a bi-directional converter between batteries and circuits, for power applications or even in resonant converter topologies. It is also useful in applications requiring high current and in Multi-output flyback converters. This diverse range of applications testifies to the flexibility of the Smart Magnetic project.   A project ? Do not hesitate to contact us.
