DRIVING INNOVATION: THE EVOLUTION OF LOW VOLTAGE AC DRIVES TOWARDS COMPACT, MULTI-AXIS, INTEGRATED SOLUTIONS

Driving Innovation: The evolution of low voltage AC Drives towards compact, multi-axis, integrated solutions

The low voltage AC drive market is currently undergoing a profound shift. Traditionally, drives have been treated and marketed as a standalone component, however current demands from machine builders and end-users have necessitated viewing drives more holistically as part of a whole system solution. More specifically, demand for more modular, compact machinery has increased innovation […]

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 […]
