After healthcare, manufacturing is ranked as the second most dangerous work environment, with countless risks of injury and death. In an attempt to lessen the hazards in the industry, limit switches gained popularity for safety regulation. Also known as travel switches, limit switches are electromechanical devices designed to cut power to stop the motor and activate the brake that halts the machinery when a specified limit is exceeded through physical force. These switches typically comprise an actuator mechanically linked to a set of contacts used to detect the measured objects, and they can be found in a vast array of devices. To further explore the functions and benefits of limit switches, this blog will examine their different types and how they work.

Aircraft that are able to conduct vertical take-off and landing are known as VTOLs, and they often come in the form of drones, helicopters, tiltrotor aircraft, and more. VTOL technology presents a major benefit to urban operations, allowing aircraft to fly in dense areas where a conventional fixed-wing model would be unsafe. Additionally, many proposed VTOLs for urban areas are to be electrically powered, making them eVTOL vehicles. In this blog, we will discuss eVTOLs and how they have the potential to radically change aviation.

In our modern world, we are often dependent on countless electronics that support our business endeavors, communication, personal lives, and much more. Despite our ability to effectively harness electricity for power, it remains a volatile force that can easily lead to damage and danger if not properly managed and controlled. While there are a number of ways in which we can better manage electricity for safety, one of the most simplistic and common solutions is to use grounding wires. As electrical protection is one of the most important elements of safety for any building, aircraft, automobile, or facility, it is highly beneficial to have a general understanding of grounding wires and how they benefit an electrical system.

Nowadays, lithium batteries are more in demand than ever before. These batteries are used in our cell phones, computers, laptops, wireless tools, and electric vehicles. However, just because all the devices mentioned earlier use lithium batteries, this does not mean that they all use one single battery type for every device. Instead, there are six main types of lithium batteries with specific uses.
