CNC Machining, 3D printing, Aluminium extrusion and Cast urethane all find wide range of uses in the medical industry. Once a part has met the FDA requirements for cleanliness, non-toxicity and bio-compatibility, it is usually ready to be used for its intended purposes. If you are a product engineer with interests in the medical industry, …
Die casting, just as much as any manufacturing operation will surely involve some manner of heat generation, part movement, cooling and ejection. Because of how intense die casting can be, it is almost impossible to imagine a smooth operation without the use of lubricants. Lubricants aid the die casting process by minimizing the risk of …
