The world is becoming increasingly more reliant on wireless technology in both professional and personal applications. Even as this technology evolves, wireless users continue to face certain unique challenges. Making calls or using data indoors can still be a hassle in many locations. This is especially true for those using public transportation like trains, where window glass greatly impacts wireless signals. Swiss startup nu glass has created a revolutionary new technology to solve this problem. Their cutting-edge process relies on KNF diaphragm pumps. Wireless Signals Have Difficulty Penetrating Glass While wireless signals have become stronger and more efficient in recent years, they still struggle to penetrate building materials, including insulating glass. This makes it difficult, and in some cases impossible, to get service indoors. Everyday clear glass can reduce wireless signal by up to 4 decibels (dB), while coated glass can reduce signal by as many as 30 dB (x1000). This is especially a problem in public transportation vehicles like trains, where passengers may struggle to receive wireless signals at all. It is an issue faced by commuters worldwide, for which Swiss startup nu glass has developed a cutting-edge solution. A Unique Glass Cutting Pattern Drives Improved Signal “At nu glass we work to deliver the best connectivity no matter where they are, within an efficient and passive solution” Luc Burnier, Founder and CEO of nu glass, said. “Our revolutionary technology invented at Switzerland EPFL makes it possible on existing and installed glazing.” nu glass’s revolutionary glass cutting pattern allows wireless signals to better penetrate windows. The engraving can be completed on-site without having to remove windows. KNF Pumps Facilitate Etching Process The N 838 is an outstanding gas transfer pump option. It offers a maximum flow rate of 34 l/min with an ultimate vacuum down to 100 mbar (abs.). Also available are a variety of motor options, including brushless DC motors. The N 838 has excellent reliability and operates oil free, preventing media contamination. KNF’s N 838 diaphragm gas pump plays a vital role in nu glass’ engraving system, holding it in place during etching.
