‘Abrasion Resistance’

An Engineeringtalk guide

Start with the news release Taegutec replaces CT5000 grade with Cermet CT7000 from TaeguTec UK, which we summarised at the time by saying "Taegutec has brought out the Cermet CT7000 grade for steel-machining applications at high cutting speeds. ". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Objet material offers rubber-like characteristics from Objet Geometries Europe: "Objet Geometries has released the TangoBlackPlus, a material that allows designers and manufacturers to create high-quality parts that closely resemble a broad range of rubber products. ".
 
In November 2009, we covered the news from Flexicon - take a look at Flexicon enhances range of compression fittings which says: "Flexicon has introduced what it claims is the most liquid-tight conduit system in the UK, by enhancing its range of compression fittings. ".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Victrex, Talisman chooses Aptiv film for CMOS / CCD mask, as well as Kabelschlepp cable carriers reduce ESD risk from Kabelschlepp Metool, and Resin is tough enough for ice hockey stick from Huntsman Advanced Materials.
