  USB Type-C cables are now everywhere, from charging your cell phone to connecting your computer to a 4K display. But not every Type-C cable is the same. Some charge slowly, others break easily, and others can damage your devices. That’s why it is important to know what to look for beforehand. A good Type-C cable should be fast, reliable, durable, and safe. Here are the top 5 things to check before you select a quality Type-C cable: 1. Power Delivery (PD) Support One of the biggest benefits of USB-C is fast charging. To use fast charging, however, you need to use a cable that supports Power Delivery (PD). Power Delivery allows the cable to carry higher wattage (up to 100W) so your laptop, tablet, and phone charge much faster. Whenever you are purchasing a cable, check the power rating of the cable. A true Type-C PD cable will either say “Supports up to 100W” or “Supports PD 3.0.” If you do not purchase a proper cable, you may get slow charging, or the cable may actually ...

  In the field of industrial manufacturing and engineering, some technologies stand out due to their ability to solve problems. One of them is plasma spray coating. At its core, it is a method for applying a protective coating to different types of surfaces (typically metals or ceramics) in a strong manner. This process is used to give parts the ability to withstand wear and tear, heat, corrosion, and sometimes friction. You will find plasma spray coatings being used on everything from airplane engines and medical implants to car parts and power plants. It is a very powerful process indeed. However, as with many advanced technologies, plasma spray applications come with challenges unique to the process. These hurdles are not just invented by manufacturers or school text books; they happen everyday on factory floors, workshops and production lines. Companies that invest in plasma spray technology must find these and other challenges and manage them if they want to maximize their i...

  There are plenty of professionals who work behind the scenes and on the frontlines in the healthcare system. While people primarily think of physicians, doctors, and nurses, they often forget about an equally hardworking and valued professional service group responsible for patient care and clinical operations, i.e., medical assistants. They may not always be the first group you think of, but they undoubtedly are the lifeline of countless medical offices, clinics, and hospitals.   Medical assistants wear many hats. They are often the first smiling face a patient sees as they walk into a clinic. They schedule appointments, help file records, and potentially, they may even assist during examinations and procedures. These skilled professionals bring organization, empathy, and support. As demand for medical services continues to rise, and in consideration of an aging population, plus additional health concerns, it is likely that the role of assistants will continue to grow. ...
