With the Bal Spring canted coil spring, you can achieve a higher level of protection for your semicon processing and test equipment designs, while improving yield and simplifying maintenance for your end user. Our spring lets you do more with less—effectively shielding against EMI, managing high current with low heat rise, and latching components...
Recently, a seasoned mechanical engineer at Motiv Space Systems told us, “When I work with you, I don’t have to think about seals.” That’s music to our ears, because it means we’re helping designers stay focused on bigger things – like landing a rover on Mars. But maybe you’re not quite ready to let...
We’re an engineering company, and we share your love for breaking things down to their most essential elements. After all, what better way is there to learn about form, function, and potential performance limitations? That engineering mindset is what motivated us to create and launch a new website feature dedicated to seal materials....
In electronics manufacturing, food processing, pharmaceutical, medical, aerospace, and other industries, robots are programmed to perform dangerous, dirty, and/or repetitive tasks. Seals, which are used to protect arms, end effectors, actuators, and other parts, play a critical role in efficient robot operation. We’ve created this quick-reference graphic to help you choose seals that can...
In the valve engineering process, seal selection is critical. In fact, it can mean the difference between a good design, and a great one. That’s why we’ve created this short presentation. It examines the relationship between seal choice and valve performance, and it addresses important design criteria, such as hardware surface finish and seal...
To achieve big improvements in the performance of your industrial valves, you need to consider every little design detail. Right down to the seal. That’s why we’ve produced this short video. It offers some pointers on choosing seals for isolation, butterfly, ball, gate, and other valve types. It also addresses some common causes of...
Industrial valves control, isolate, and regulate the flow of liquids and gases. Their failure can result in severe equipment damage, injury, lost profit, and costly cleanup. Read on to find out how sealing in industrial valves can help solve your design concerns.
Selecting the appropriate sealing solution is critical to ensure the robot performs as expected. For example, in many of our applications, we must balance friction requirements with sealing effectiveness. Do you have examples of robotic applications in which your products are used and what design challenges they address? Bal Seal Engineering, Inc. has...
