Free Industry Guide for Aero and Defense Applications


Heaters, flex circuits and temp sensors proven in aerospace and defense designs.

Minneapolis, Minn., August 1, 2008-Minco, a designer and manufacturer of critical components for critical applications, has a new, free industry guide that gives design engineers ideas on how to save weight and space when they incorporate proven heater, flex circuit and temperature sensor designs from Minco into their critical components. This guide highlights the following:

o How thin, precision flex circuitry provide high-density interconnections to helmet-mounted micro-displays.

o How Thermofoil(TM) flexible heaters warm actuator servovalves in launch platforms.

o How flexible Thermal-Ribbon(TM) sensors sense wing surface temps for wing surface de-icing.

o How rigid-flex systems provide rugged reliability for missile fire controls systems.

This 8-page guide can ordered in print from Minco's website or downloaded (http://www.minco.com/contactus/literaturerequest.aspx).
