Times Microwave Systems, a pioneer in innovative RF and microwave interconnect assemblies, cables, and connector designs, has a range of interconnect products for industrial solutions for chemical and food processing that uses RF energy. RF energy has been used in the industrial sector, most commonly in plasma processes, lighting, and heating.
Operating in the 915-MHz and 2.4-GHz ISM bands, RF energy is an efficient means to heat materials ranging from wood to polymer. A well-designed system can provide precise control – allowing heating in only targeted areas. This is a desired attribute in industrial food processing. In the emerging alt-meat sector, which may require a high level of energy in its processes, RF technology offers clear advantages over conventional systems.
Key Solutions:
- Low-loss coaxial cables: Low cable attenuation minimizes energy loss and heat dissipation. Low-loss cables are particularly advantageous when long lengths are required.
- Quick-disconnect connectors: A positive locking mechanism eliminates tools and potential human error associated with conventional threaded interfaces. The tool-free installation minimizes debris and other contaminants.
- Flame resistance: Flame-resistant jackets on high power cables add a layer of protection and containment, especially in confined indoor spaces.
