Sound advice: How to implement precision ultrasonic cleaning for medical parts and implants
When cleaning parts, there is general cleaning and then there is precision cleaning. Both types are important in medical device manufacturing, but precision cleaning -- repeatable removal of contaminants to a specified, usually validated standard -- has become more prevalent in part because of increasingly stringent Food and Drug Administration oversight of the manufacturing process, resulting in stricter process QC.
CM12 Capacitive Sensor
SICK announced the launch of the CM12 capacitive sensor.
Bird’s eye view
If you're not monitoring the condition of your CNC equipment, you're machining in the dark.
WTB4 MultiLine Photoelectric Sensor
SICK announced the launch of the WTB4 MultiLine Photoelectric sensor.
Micro-Dimensionair II Air Gage
Mahr Federal has introduced the next generation of its well-established Micro-Dimensionair line of portable air gages. The new Micro-Dimensionair II incorporates the enhanced Micro-Maxum II Digital Indicator and an interchangeable handle to provide accurate, convenient readouts at the measurement site.
Inspection insight
Jesse Garant & Associates Metrology Center provided a brief animated view of various computed-tomography scanning analysis systems.
Out with the old
A model-based design and verification method for reducing the time to build complex vehicles and aircraft.
X-ray specs
X-ray scanning a part with internal features is useful because it creates 2-D images of those features in a nondestructive manner. Industrial computed-tomography, or industrial CT scanning, which is based on X-ray scanning technology, takes it a step further by providing a complete 3-D view for internal and external analysis.
