In this white paper and accompanying video, Matt Mowry, linear bearings product manager, discusses how bearing lubrication failures affect your budget and the environment.

Key Take-Aways: (1)Understand the hidden and unrealized costs of lubricating and re-lubricating a bearing; (2) Understand how improper bearing lubrication can increase expenses exponentially; and (3) Discover how dry-running, self-lubricating bearings can make machines operate better and reduce your budget.

Discover all of the elements involved in determining the useful life of a screw actuator and how to use them to ensure that your system is built in the most efficient, and cost-effective manner possible.

When designing a motion system, one of the main problems to be aware of is the useful life of the machines in the system. There are numerous factors that influence machine life including; material quality, and applied load.

Master Bond is pleased to announce the release of EP42HT-2FG, a new food grade epoxy system. EP42HT-2FG has been independently tested and certified by a leading national laboratory to meet the stringent requirements of FDA 175.300. It also was toxicologically evaluated to meet the NSF/ 51.4.1 (2009) standard for food equipment materials.

Food grade certified epoxy EP42HT-2FG may be used across a wide variety of applications in the food industry, such as bonding and sealing metals, plastics, rubbers and other substrates, commonly found on food service equipment. Featuring high resistance to chemicals and many solvents, along with boiling water, fats and oils, it may be readily used as a coating for storage tanks, bins, hoppers, and other containment vessels. Capable of withstanding extreme conditions over the wide service temperature range of -60°F to +450°F (FDA certification done at the temperatures specified in the test protocol), EP42HT-2FG resists steam, radiation and frozen storage conditions.

With a volume resistivity of over 1014 ohm-cm, EP42HT-2FG also serves as a potting and encapsulation compound for electronic components and devices. It has a low viscosity of 55,000-110,000 cps for Part A and 75-130 cps for Part B at room temperature. This adhesive has a tensile strength greater than 12,000 psi and a tensile lap shear strength exceeding 2,000 psi at 75°F.

This two part epoxy offers easy handling with an open time of 45-75 minutes for a 100 gram mass at 75°F. EP42HT-2FG has convenient color coding (Part A is clear and Part B is amber) for its 100:30 mix ratio by weight. The recommended cure is 3-4 hours at 150-200°F. Alternatively, it can be cured at room temperature overnight followed by a 2-3 hour cure at 150-200°F.

EP42HT-2FG is available for use in half-pint, pint, quart, gallon and five gallon containers. It has a shelf life of one year when stored at room temperature in its original unopened containers.

Explore the merits of a single-use bioprocessing system and learn how the byproduct of these systems, cogeneration, can be leveraged to save money and reduce waste.

The debate of which system is better for bioprocessing, a single-use system comprised of polymer-based parts or a stainless steel system, has been raging on in earnest for only about the last decade. There are a myriad of benefits to be gained by implementing a single-use bioprocessing system. These benefits run the gamut from more efficient processing procedures to a decreased environmental impact.

With relatively few progressions in conventional optical microscopy during the past decade, pushing through the physical limitations of these systems has proven to be challenging. Despite this stand-still, engineers have recently been able to develop solutions to some of the limitations in modern microanalysis. Using an integrated design approach, digital microscopes have been developed to overcome many of the shortcomings of conventional optical microscopes. Specifically, in regard to ceramics, one of the major difficulties in observing and analyzing these materials is the complete lack of contrast typically associated with them, especially when viewed through a traditional optical microscope. However, by using the advanced features of fully-integrated digital microscopes, coupled with highresolution zoom lenses and digital camera technology, users can now image samples that were previously relegated to the realm of an SEM.
