5G speed trials The Russian mobile network operator MTS has achieved speeds of 2.1Gbps in its latest mmWave 5G trials, using Nokia’s AirScale mmWave radio equipment and a Samsung Galaxy handset. MTS’ test network predominantly uses the mmWave spectrum, due to a shortage of the mid-range spectrum in Russia. All four of Russia’s mobile network operators are expected to launch 5G services using the mmWave spectrum. In a speech about the testing, Inessa Galaktionova, MTS’s first vice president for telecommunications, said: “Not long ago we were testing 5G equipment the size of a closet, and today, together with our partners, we showcased a 5G smartphone operating under typical user conditions that externally is indistinguishable from a regular 4G device.”

The new machine will allow the production of one-ton, 12m bundles with ten wraps, offering cost-effective handling to new foreign markets for AEMZ. The binding machine will be equipped with binding and twisting heads driven by electrical motors instead of the traditional hydraulic drives.
