RF Shielded Bags and Pouches-Security!
RF Shielded Bags and Pouches-Security! In today's wireless world, devices communicate with each other using RF. This is much more convenient than communicating through wires! This convenience comes with a price. Wireless devices are convenient for hackers to. The game of wireless security goes back and forth. Hackers figure out a new way to beat cyber security, cyber security figures out a way to block the new attack sites! Fortunately, one thing hackers can't access wirelessly is a device secure...

Nothing is “simple” anymore-needs Change!
Nothing is "simple" anymore-needs Change! When I first came to VTT, our manufacturing product line was fairly simple. RF Shielded Enclosures, RF Shielding Curtains, RF Shielding Garments were about it! Today, we find that our customers are always finding new and different needs for our conductive textile products. An RF Shielded enclosure has become a "suite" of rooms with more isolation than ever. Requests for Foyers, removable walls, are routine requests rather than unusual. RF Shielding Curtains...

RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters!
RF Shielded EMC Testing Enclosures-Size Matters! Electronic devices come in all sizes. All of the devices require EMC Compliance Testing in order to be marketed. This testing determines whether the device can work effectively in a shared electromagnetic environment. All devices emit RFI radiation and electromagnetic fields. These emissions can adversely affect the function of the other devices. The problem boils down to two terms, emissions or susceptibility. The RF emissions of an electronic device must meet certain applicable standards. ...

Conductive Textiles help make Travelling Safe!
Conductive Textiles help make Travelling Safe! Planes, trains, and automobiles depend on conductive textiles in many ways. They keep the driver or pilot aware of the engagement of safety restraints by the passengers before beginning the trip. If you drive automobiles, you are well aware that there are sensors present in the steering wheel that determine if the driver is in proper position and paying attention to his surroundings. If the car wanders in its lane, sensors notice this and...

Rack Systems protect your Server’s Data!
Rack Systems protect your Server's Data! We live in a "wireless world", so many transactions take place over the airwaves! That's a nice convenience of living in a digital world! Life is simpler when we can take care of so many of our responsibilities without leaving home. That ease comes with a potential cost. There are many people who "earn" their livings by stealing or misappropriating digital information. We often hear of people who have had terrible experiences such as...

RF Shielding creates Device Compatibility!
RF Shielding creates Device Compatibility! Everyone knows some people who are very talented at what they do, but they can't work together! The mere presence of the two of them in the same room ruins the work environment. The same thing is true of electronic components, electronic devices do jobs well. When the components have to work in a shared electromagnetic environment, they have to be compatible. With people, it's their personalities that can make them incompatible, unable to work...

Technical Embroidery-Conductive Yarn “Wires”!
Technical Embroidery-Conductive Yarn "Wires"! Smart clothing requires durable conductive wires! I'm asking you to "think outside the box" when it comes to the term "wire". In the case of clothing a classic "metal wire" leaves quite a bit to be desired. It is rigid and doesn't like the movements of the human body. Flexing a metal wire leads to stress cracks, and ultimately failure of the wire. Additionally, metal wires in clothing are not exactly "comfortable" for the wearer, we...

EMC Compliance Testing-what’s the Point?
EMC Compliance Testing-what's the Point? Every electronic device must pass EMC Compliance Testing to make it to the market! The reason for this requirement is to lessen the amount of RFI/ EMI in our environment. More importantly, it is to lessen the RFI and EMI in our environment that adversely affects the function of other devices present in the shared electromagnetic environment. All electronic devices emit RFI/EMI. In general, electromagnetic interference doesn't cause a decrease in function of the devices...
