Newark element14 announces Bud Industries board-ganizer

CHICAGO, USA: Newark element14, a high-service distributor of technology products and engineering solutions, has launched the Bud Industries Board-ganizer, a solution to the problem of organizing multiple development boards and a maze of wiring.

Using a revolutionary "flat or folded" approach, the Board-ganizer enclosure provides a tidy work platform, keeps components of a design project in one place, and makes breadboarded designs easy to store and transport. This is the first board organizer enclosure on the market and, because no additional hardware is required, offers a simple and elegant solution to customers.

Designed for use with development boards and microcomputers such as the Raspberry Pi, Arduino and the Beagle Boards, among others, the Board-ganizer serves the ever-growing population of electronics makers and developers.

"Our company has developed an entire strategy on building a support system for design engineers to do their job more efficiently by leveraging the ideas of world-class supplier partners," said Richard Halliday, global product director at Newark element14. "Solutions include schematic capture, development kits, software and a steady stream of new product introductions. The Bud Board-ganizer is yet another example of that strategy."

Made from smoke-colored and impact-resistant ABS (UL94-HB), the product allows assembly of up to 4 PCBs and shields. It also rolls up into a compact 5" x 5" x 3.5" enclosure without undoing any of the wiring.

The product retails at $16.00 and is available through Newark element14 in North America. It has resonated especially well with college students, who need to keep multiple electronic engineering products organized and mobile.

Newark element14 offers design engineers a space to share project concepts with 180,000 members in its award-winning element14 Community, the first of its kind. Additionally, the industry's most comprehensive online knowledge resource for electronic design, the Knode on element14, is a first stop for any engineer undertaking a design project with a development kit.
