Linvatec Corporation is a leading manufacturer of arthroscopy and other surgical equipment. Their innovative line of Hall® Surgical equipment makes use of cordless battery power in such devices as sternum saws and bone drills.
Even seemingly simple devices, like pressure gauges used to measure fluids or gases, have to meet static dissipation standards established by the European ATEX Directive.
As an international engineering company, Shuttleworth, Inc., produces the finest quality in-process conveyor automation and material handling machinery.
Recent advances in tooling and equipment have made it possible to extrude high performance engineering thermoplastic compounds and alloys with precision approaching that of injection molding.
New, high-pressure aluminum compressed gas cylinders are finished in a rigorous washing, coating and curing system. The cylinders suspend from a conveyor by plug hooks that provide a grounding path for the powder coating.
Nordson's Sure Coat™ spray gun is designed for performance, durability, and operator comfort.
Depending on the specific use, the buildup of static can cause mobility problems or even damage the materials in transit. Static electricity develops through motion. A common area for static electricity to generate from is ball bearings.
Rolcon/Venix of Cincinnati, OH came to RTP Company for a conductive material to meet the demands of high-speed conveyor bushings.
Offshore oil platforms, power generation stations and petrochemical refineries all share a condition of harsh environment for equipment essential to their business.
Traditionally, fluid handling pump designs favored metals, but many end-users demand non-metallic materials that better resist corrosion from harsh chemicals or reduced weight for portability.
Although most standard pipette tips do not require conductivity, the tips used in the liquid-handling drug testing systems not only require conductive properties, but superior physical properties as well as chemical resistance.
Carlo Gavazzi has developed a new family of ATEX approved products by redesigning its Tripleshield® capacitive sensors.
Elimination of "hot spots" or uneven surface charge distribution was a major issue that Hand Held Products faced when creating a new image scanner for clean room environments.
A new family of Static Dissipative Compounds improves reliability and saves time in manufacturing chip trays, packaging products, and consumer goods.
ESD (ElectroStatic Discharge) is the sudden transfer or discharge of electricity from one object to another. In cleanrooms or on factory floors, ESD poses a threat to product quality and may cause damage during any phase of manufacturing.
