Iron-based alloys
Several alloys, designed to support the redesign of large-scale diesel engines, are being prepared for patent application. The movement to redesign engines has been primarily fueled by the need to meet stricter air quality standards. Thus, it has created a demand for alloys that exhibit not only good wear resistance but that are also able to withstand high temperatures. The company’s existing iron-based alloys, upon which the most recent introductions are based, are suitable for applications that are not subject to overheating (temperatures above 1200° to 1400°F). In addition, these alloys machine well and offer good abrasion resistance . Other alloy offerings include cobalt- and nickel-based as well as custom-manufactured. An expanded alloy development and wear-test facility is capable of testing alloys for tolerances to such real-life conditions as sliding and sliding-contact wear. Winsert Inc, Marinette, WI.

Vacuum injection molding system. The VacuJet vacuum injection molding system has been designed to eliminate the need for mold seals or vacuum boxes. This system also lowers scrap rate, eliminates air entrapment and reduces cycle times, according to the manufacturer. The VacuJet is based on a FIFO injection system that allows the first material introduced to be the first material injected. Technical Machine Products, Cleveland, OH.

Nitrile and hydrin elastomers. These nitrile and hydrin elastomers are intended for LPG and natural gas metering applications. They can be combined with substrates such as silk for improved flexibility, as well as nylons, polyesters, cottons and blends. In addition, the elastomers range in thickness from 0.0055- to 0.018-in. Coated fabrics made with these elastomers meet UL 144, UL 157 and UL 429 standards. Archer Rubber Co, Milford, MA.
