Laser-based Coating Process for Cylinder Corrosion Protection
The laser cladding technology enables faster production of coatings with more flexibility in materials than the traditional arc welding process.
Thermal Imaging Camera For Your Smart Phone
CompactPRO is an advanced thermal imaging camera designed to plug into your smartphone. Use with your iPhone or Android phone to get high resolution thermal images.
Water Suppresses Rocket-liftoff Sound
NASA’s clever solution to sound-dampening during rocket launches is just that: using water—900,000 gallons a minute—to absorb the sound energy.
Close Tolerance Punch Attachment Lowers Pouch Packaging Costs
Interchangeable punch and die plates eliminate the need to replace the entire unit for maintenance or when different profiles are desired.
Food Contact-compliant Positive Displacement Pump
EHEDG Type EL Class I - Aseptic certificationdenotes that the pump is self-draining, has a reduced clean-in-place cycle time, and requires lower volumes of cleaning agents.
Advanced Roller Chains Extend Operating Life in Tough Operating Conditions
Roller chains have long been relied upon to deliver long lasting performance despite demanding applications. New advancements in technology now allow even longer life and higher performance even in some of the most difficult applications.
