Laird Technologies to showcase EMI and microwave solutions at IMS 2013

May 24, 2013

When the IEEE International Microwave Symposium opens early next month, Laird Technologies Inc., a global technology company, will be there to showcase its best-in-class EMI and microwave materials to design engineers looking for solutions with proven results. Addressing EMI issues early in the design process is critical, and Laird’s customizable solutions are ideal for engineers working at VHF, UHF, microwave and millimeter wave frequencies in industries ranging from wireless and telecommunications to medical and military. 

IMS 2013 will be held at the Washington State Convention Center in Seattle, Washington, June 4-6, 2013. Laird will exhibit at booth #2408 and will display the ECCOSORB®,ECCOSTOCK® and ECCOSHIELD® product brands, which were added to the portfolio when Laird acquired Emerson & Cuming Microwave Products.  

ECCOSORB® microwave absorbers are available in a wide frequency range with custom sizes and formulations available. Sample kits of ECCOSORB® will be available during the exhibition. Low loss dielectrics, ECCOSTOCK® from Laird are available with loss tangents as low as .0001 and dielectric constants ranging from 1.03 to 30. ECCOSHIELD® highly conductive shielding materials are available as non-hardening caulking compounds, silicone or vinyl based sheets as well as conductive adhesives and coatings. Laird will also display other EMI solutions including fingerstock, board level shielding and Fabric-over-Foam.  

“Laird designs and manufactures a variety of EMI solutions,” said Laird Sales Operations Director, Cindy Manning. “IMS 2013 provides us an opportunity to showcase our industry-leading technology to the attendees who are interested in wireless communication, RF technologies, electromagnetics, microwave and mm-wave electronics.”  

IMS 2013 is the premier international event for technologists involved in all aspects of microwave theory and practice. The agenda includes technical presentations, workshops, tutorials and an exhibition that hosts more than 550 industry-leading exhibitors.  

Emerson & Cuming Microwave Products, a unit of Laird Technologies, is a global leader in the development and manufacture of microwave absorbing materials, low-loss dielectrics and electrically conductive shielding materials. Laird and ECMP continue to integrate their product portfolios to be able to offer customers a wide breadth of solutions to fit EMI applications across a variety of markets. 

Through innovation, reliable fulfillment and speed, Laird is a trusted partner and supplier for many of the world’s leading companies. As an industry leader in high-performance and cost-effective EMI Solutions, Laird provides the knowledge, innovation, and resources to ensure exceptional grounding and shielding performance and customer satisfaction for applications in the automotive electronics, handset & mobile devices, industrial, medical, military, IT/Computing and consumer markets.
