PICKUPS FROM NAGAOKA

PICKUPS FROM NAGAOKA

Brand Story Nagaoka began in the distant 1940, when the pre-war Japan, the company became one of the main manufacturers of bearings for clockworks. Further, having a great experience especially precision machining of hard materials such as diamond, ruby and ceramics, the company developed its production on ways to expand the range of products for various applications in the fields of industrial machinery, communications and electronics. In addition, the company is engaged in production of magnets for a variety of applications, including the most high-tech - based alloys, samarium-cobalt and neodymium.

It is only natural that having this experience, the company decided to start producing pickups and replacement needles for turntables.

Today Nagaoka - Japan#39;s largest manufacturer of pickup for turntables (including heads, mounted on holders - Shelley) and replaceable diamond stylus. As the company itself is engaged in manufacturing needles (and not only for themselves but also for other firms in the OEM-agreements), some replacement needles Nagaoka cost only about one-third of the cost of the head, which is much less than that of other manufacturers.

Pickup Nagaoka MP-150 has an excellent ability to track the smallest track modulation. To reduce the weight of the moving cantilever cartridge is made of aluminum alloy UT-58. Being the most durable of all aluminum alloys, UT-58 after the smelting process is subjected to a special roasting, doubling its rigidity.

Because of this manufacturer has achieved a rare combination of low self-weight and high hardness.

Diamond stylus tip has a diameter of 0.15 mm, which allows for uniform frequency response and incredible detail of the sound. Using miniature but powerful magnet of samarium-cobalt possible to reduce the size of the magnetic system without losing its effectiveness as a pole piece of a multilayered permalloy having a high permeability, provides a high impact with fewer turns of the coil.

Cartridge frame is made of a material PPS (Polyphenylene Sulfide), having the highest strength. Shielded enclosure is made of superpermalloya cartridge, which helps to raise the ratio of signal / noise player.

This head can be equipped with cartridge holder or the shell. Modification of the head with Shelley called Nagaoka MP-150H. Shell has been designed specifically for the MP-series to maximize reveal e ѐ opportunities. It is made of magnesium - a very lightweight material having the best ratio weight / strength of all commercial metals. The connecting wires shell - Stranded, from ultra-pure copper, which reduces the loss of signal transmission across the frequency range.

Contact shell - gold, corresponding to a precision technology at Nagaoka. The philosophy of the company `everything except the vibrating system must be rigid` true for shell.

In addition, the manufacturer has provided and the ability to separate the replacement stylus. Model replacement needles for this model is called JN-P 150.

TOSHIBA UNVEILS PROJECTORS NHW22A AND NHX21A

TOSHIBA UNVEILS PROJECTORS NHW22A And NHX21A

The company Toshiba is not only a manufacturer of high-quality 3D-TV - it makes pretty good projectors. Let#39;s look at the model and NHX21A NHW22A, which appeared on the market recently. The most important advantage of these projections is that the devices have a very low power consumption.

Both new models - NHX21A and NHW22A - can ensure efficient operation of up to 20,000 hours, making them a very competitive offer for a low total cost of ownership. Latest projectors are ideally suited to the current product portfolio by Toshiba, which includes the recently introduced models of televisions.

Long life and low cost - all of this is a dream of some owners of multimedia projectors. Therefore, the unit of Toshiba certainly find buyers.

Toshiba projectors are indebted for their efficiency and energy saving technology Hybrid Laser. With this technology, they can operate up to 20,000 hours without requiring costly replacement of lamps. In this connection, they may also be used in homes or other places where they can be used quite often.

These projectors are ideal for presentations.

Projectors and NHX21A NHW22A offer high image quality, regardless of the distance between the device and the screen. Accommodation model NHX21A only a meter away from the wall provides images diagonal 2.46 meters. If, however, at the same distance to place the model NHW22A, then the diagonal image will be 1.93 meters wider audience will not have a problem with viewing images even at 7.62 meters diagonally, as both models have an amazing brightness (NHX21A - 2,500 lumens, NHW22A - 3000 lumens).

With a brightness projectors can be used successfully even in areas that are illuminated by direct sunlight. Automatically adjusts the brightness of the screen adjusts the brightness under ambient conditions.

It is worth noting that the recent Toshiba projectors almost immediately ready for use. You will need only about 5 seconds to wait after the device. Work projectors little fan is noisy, because they are equipped with a hybrid laser technology.

Therefore, both models do not emit a lot of heat.

Projectors should be on the market soon, but it is not known at what price they will be sold. But we should expect that it will not be high.

CENTER SPEAKER IMAGINE MINI C OF PSB SPEAKERS

Center speaker IMAGINE MINI C OF PSB SPEAKERS

The company PSB Speakers has released a supplement to its series of Mini. We are talking about the Imagine mini c - column dedicated center channel. The entire series tselyakom is a compact speaker system for home theater.

The design of mini c consists of two 4-inch woofers with clay and ceramic polypropylene cone and rubber surround and 1-inch titanium dome tweeter with ferrofluid and neodymium magnet. Addition to the basic structure of the magnetic keramichko-woofer is another powerful neodymium magnet in the upper part of the tip. All three speakers are arranged horizontally, with the rear ported.

Crossover frequency tweeter is 2.2 kHz, allowing a speaker closer to each other, to reduce interference between them and the realistic detail provide the sound of one of the most important speaker in a home theater. With such a low crossover frequency relative to the size of the woofers, the intensity of the sound of the speakers is the same no matter where the listener.

The elegant design of the case Imagine mini c in five different finishes - a hallmark of the series Imagine a whole. Weighs mini c 4,5 kg with dimensions of 35.5 x 15 x 21.5 cm

Imagine mini c will go on sale in November, according to the manufacturer#39;s recommended price of $ 700 (dark cherry, walnut, ash) and $ 770 (glossy white and black).

DETERMINE THE PRINCIPLE OF CREATING A HIGHLY EFFICIENT SOLAR CELLS

Determine the principle of creating a highly efficient solar cells

U.S. researchers from the Department of Materials Science National Laboratory. Lawrence Berkeley in collaboration with scientists from Cornell University and Ritsumeikan University, Japan found that the band gap semiconductor such as indium nitride is much less than previously thought. If you previously thought that this figure is close to the 2-electron volts (eV), it is now clear that he is less than 0.7 eV.

This opening means in particular that the photocells based alloy comprising indium, gallium, and nitrogen (In1-xGaxN), will be sensitive to the solar radiation spectrum - from near infrared to ultraviolet, and up. The use of this alloy in solar cells can serve as a basis for a relatively inexpensive panels, which in this case would be stronger and more effective than those that were created earlier. As suggested Vladek Valyukevich Berkeley, multijunction solar cell of the two layers of indium gallium nitride can achieve maximum efficiency of the theoretical limit of 50%.

To do this, one layer need to tune on the band gap of 1.7 eV and the other at 1.1 eV. If the solar cell is able to create a large number of layers, where each layer will have a bandgap its maximum theoretical efficiency can be higher than 70%.

In this semiconductor indium and gallium nitride are highly resistant to radiation, which makes them an ideal material for the manufacture of solar spacecraft. As for the cost of production of solar cells, the Valyukevich believes that it may be close to the cost of LEDs that are used in road signs.

U.S. NEW POLYMERS AND SIGNIFICANTLY INCREASE FIBER CAPACITY

USA: new polymers and significantly increase fiber capacity

Specialists Bell Labs - the research division of Lucent Technologies, reported new progress in the development of a new generation of equipment for optical networks. Created by them of plastics optical signal modulator capable of efficiently operating at frequencies of 150-200 GHz, which is 15-20 times higher than the current operating frequency of the bulk of lithium niobate modulators operating at 10 GHz. Promising semiconductor modulators can operate at frequencies up to 40 GHz.

Thus, using the new polymer can be transferred to modulators 150-200 billion bits per second.

The new modulator has a sandwich structure: its center is a tiny strip of gold, surrounded by a layer of polymeric material. Careful selection of the polymer to minimize the effects of interference and fading of the optical signal. In the laboratory, the researchers managed to transmit a signal at frequencies up to 1600 GHz, although in large equipment such performance is unlikely to be implemented soon.

Besides the obvious benefits - increasing the speed of data transmission over fiber-optic backbones - new technology has several other advantages, including, in particular, low power consumption: for supply of polymer modulator enough voltage to 2.5 V, while the lithium niobate modulator consumes 10 . This eliminates the need to increase the transformers that are used when placing the silicon chip and modulators on one semiconductor board.

RECENT REGULATORY SYSTEM WORK IN MINSK HEAT SUPPLY NETWORK WILL SOON BE IMPLEMENTED THROUGHOUT MOSCOW

The newest systems that control the MINSK heating systems, will soon be implemented throughout MOSCOW

The newest systems that monitor the operation of the capital of heating systems, will soon be implemented throughout Moscow. This decision was made on Thursday during an inspection of one of these systems, vice mayor, acting mayor Valery Shantsev.

While similar systems operate in 11 districts of the Eastern administrative district and one district in the south-east of the capital. According Shantseva, the experience of the heat control is very progressive and effective, and does not require substantial costs.

Each test area served by two people. At intervals of 15 minutes for them to the control signals received on the state of heating. This allows you to predict the occurrence of an emergency, and if necessary - instantly react to it.

Moreover, the new control system so debug the heating systems, which eliminates the need for preventive summer off hot water in residential and office buildings in Moscow.

While such an experiment are going to be carried out only on the basis of a 500-apartment building, located in the region, where a control system for heating systems. If the results of the experiment are positive, it will spread to three residential quarter, and in the future - all over Moscow.
