Cut Re-Design Costs
Spec in lubricants now, not later. Would you forget to include a bearing or gear in your design? Of course not! These components are critical to the functionality of your design. Lubricants are also critical design features as they improve the reliability of your application. Going back to add a lubricant requires extra design time, resources, and possible regulatory approval hurdles that could push out the completion date of your project.
Spring-loaded mechanisms, bearings, gears, linear positioning devices, hand-held actuators, lead screws and O-ring seals represent only a few examples of the diverse range of components within medical devices that can benefit from our specialty gels and fluids. Examples of performance benefits include:
- Extending operating life
- Broadening of operating temperature range
- Reducing assembly force
- Eliminating undesirable noise
- Controlling or damping of energy release
- Optimizing haptic feedback
- Controlling free motion
- Sealing against dirt, debris, oxygen, or moisture in the environment
- Mitigating the effect of tolerance stacking
