Golf Shoe Cleat
"Traditional golf spikes actually punctured the crown of grass plants, weakening them and making them vulnerable to disease," says Mark Moore, developer of the Gripper Golf Cleats.
Sport Shoes
When RTP Company was asked to match 12 fashion colors for Reebok's fall 1989 sports shoes, and to do so quickly, we did just that.
Antistatic Storage Containers
Shippers rely on antistatic containers to provide electrostatic discharge (ESD) protection when transfering sensitive components from electronics parts to automotive airbag detonators and high explosives.
ESD-Protected Tray
Safely transporting highly sensitive devices to prevent damage from ESD requires specialized carriers that not only address ESD, but also satisfy additional performance requirements specific to the end-use application.
Wafer Carrier
Modern automated wafer handling processes have increased the need for tighter tolerances on wafer carriers. Entegris, Inc., is the first company to make significant changes to the original linear wafer carriers developed in the early 1970's
Guide Rails
In the growing European electronics market, manufacturer C.E.P.I. Rack s.r.l. in Italy has pioneered a new guide rail for module racks which hold and transport electronic circuit boards.
ESD Storage Box
Classic Line, a division of Northwest Molded Products in Racine, Wis., expanded its line to include ESD protective storage/transport containers ranging in size from 1 5/8 by 2 1/8 inches to 5 by 7 inches.
Epidural Catheter
PyMPSA's design & development department worked with PiSA on developing a new catheter for epidural anesthesia. The specs called for a biocompatible nylon material that was radiopaque.
Trauma Ripper
Attaching to a standard trauma shears, it allows medical personnel to slice through clothing and equipment to access wounds, nearly instantly, just snip and "rip."
Surgery Drill Guide
Wright Medical Technology made plans to offer a disposable, pre-sterilized set of surgical tools for procedures. Problem was, one of the key instruments, a retrograde drill guide had never been made in a disposable plastic form before.
Prosthetic Fingers
Technological and material advances have facilitated developments in prosthetics that have made artificial limbs stronger and easier to use, but no functional mechanical fingers had yet been developed.
Microscope Housing
Engineers at Leica were searching for an external housing material that would meet their protective anti-static while being fully colorable and pass long-term UV stability testing.
Asthma Inhaler Chamber
For drug delivery devices, ensuring patients receive consistent dosages is essential to successful treatment. When delivered by aerosol inhalation inconsistent dosages can be problematic.
Color-Coded Feed Set Strap
When providing nutrition to critical care patients it's imperative that feed set tubes be clearly marked to differentiate them from I.V. lines.
MIS Surgical Tool
Novare Surgical has integrated its RealHand HD technology into a series of endo-laparoscopic instruments.
