Advanced Material Handling System
"Have undoubtedly made a significant positive impact on the advanced material handling industry."
the challenge
Supply issues arose with the main PTFE-coated O-Rings, as they exhibited premature failure due to flaking and breakage of the PTFE coating over time. Additionally, these seals posed installation challenges, leading to product contamination, costly claims, and tarnished supplier reputation.
the solution
Collaboratively comprehending the application, we chose MBMS0075REV3 with added friction reduction treatment. This selection ensured contamination-free sealing and straightforward installation, as validated through fit, form, and function tests, where our seal outperformed others.
the result
There is now a collaborative partnership for this product line, while also evaluating other applications that could gain from the surface treatment.
