Also known as unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), drones have become commonplace in commercial and defense applications, but as the technology continues to evolve, so does a shift in power management systems. Drones that once ran on high energy density batteries with limited flight time are now being redesigned to rely on high-performing cables, which use a battery backup and offer unlimited flight time. 

Read the interview with Grant Lawton, Aerospace and Defense Engineer with W. L. Gore & Associates, about the company’s award-winning 10-Gb/s Ethernet cables, Cat6A version selected for integration into ongoing F-16 aircraft program upgrades.

An intensified and fully single use downstream operation was demonstrated to process a monoclonal antibody cell culture harvest at a manufacturing scale.  The results of the study were combined with previously published data to show the potential for high productivity affinity capture sufficient up to 10 g/L titers at the 2000 L scale.

Commercializing fuel cells in heavy-duty vehicles (HDVs) presents challenges like extended lifetimes, higher-temperature operation, and significantly increased power output, essential for displacing diesel. Simon Cleghorn discusses the compelling aspects of PEM fuel cells as an alternative to help solve these challenges, and potentially lower the Total Cost of Ownership (TCO).

The heavy-duty sector, representing 10% of vehicles yet contributing over 25% of carbon emissions, requires high power density and extended range capabilities. This article emphasizes the crucial role of advanced PEM technology in attaining sustainable and efficient fuel cell solutions.

Read the interview with Greg Powers, Global Aerospace and Defense Market Leader with W. L. Gore & Associates, about the company’s proven reliable solutions for high-performance digital and microwave connectivity and other products.

W. L. Gore & Associates examines constraints that may have an impact on cable performance. Also examined is the process involved in selecting the right materials based on sufficient testing to verify cables will survive and perform reliably in the harshest environments.

Aircraft weight savings is an important design and modernization consideration to increase payload, fuel efficiency, range and time on station. W. L. Gore & Associates offers reliable solutions that reduce the size and weight of copper, fiber optic and coaxial cables.
