The true cost of bearing lubrication

Today, machine and equipment manufacturers are feeling more pressure than ever to reduce costs without sacrificing machine performance, and this balancing act can be difficult to achieve. One cost driver that original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) often overlook is component lubrication. This white paper breaks down the different types of lubrication cost drivers and presents a potential solution for avoiding them. » Learn more

Ringball introduces RBL PREMIUM CHAIN

The highest quality chain in the world just got stronger! The patented RBL Premium Solid Bushing Solid Roller from Japan has 2-3 times longer wear life over curled bushings. Conventional split bushings deform into a barrel shape when side plates are pressed on, leaving only two-point contact area. RBL Premium chain (Solid Bushing & Roller) has extremely cylindrical inside and outside bushing walls resulting in full contact to disperse bearing pressure. » Click here for more info

Importance of CTE of Adhesives for Assembly Reliability

Adhesive compounds play a critical role in the fabrication of assemblies for electronic, optical and mechanical systems. Learn more about typical CTEs (coefficients of thermal expansion) for various chemistries such as epoxies and silicones, how fillers can be used to modify CTE, why CTE is dependent on temperature and much more. Specific case studies illustrate the thermal compounds used. » Learn more
