Challenge: Clean Pins for Micro Solenoid Valves

Challenge: Clean Pins for Micro Solenoid Valves

Pins in particular are critical to parts and components during potting processes. If the miniature contacts become contaminated with glue, the electrical conductivity suffers, along with the component quality. Staiger – a company based in Erligheim in the German state of Baden-Württemberg – has automated the potting of 2-component adhesives in magnetic heads for solenoid […]

How to Evaluate Chemical Resistance and Fluid Compatibility of Materials

How to Evaluate Chemical Resistance and Fluid Compatibility of Materials

Matching the right elastomer to an application is key to ensuring an o-ring’s optimal performance and mitigating premature failure. One critical factor to consider is resistance to process fluids. Different types of elastomers have differing resistance to various fluids, making material selection crucial to seal design. If the seal material is incompatible with a particular […]
