Bellows and their key design feature — flexible rigidity — are the oxymoron of the industrial components world: They must be strong enough to withstand pressure throughout their circumference, yet ...

Electrodeposited nickel bellows couplers flex to fit misaligned shafts yet remain torsionally stiff. What do a micron-precision silicon wafer cutter, a surgical microscope focusing mechanism, and a ...

In the field of modern agricultural machinery, pneumatic conveying seed-discharge systems have been widely adopted due to their compact size, high seed-discharge efficiency, and strong adaptability, ...

Freudenberg Sealing Technologies is expanding its portfolio of bellows with a new manufacturing process for small-batch ...

Glass notes that the new bellows design helps eliminate the wear that can cause holes and lead to corrosion, but says they also are easier to replace if a hole were to develop. He explains, “The holes ...

Spring-loaded magnetically-coupled device provides a fail-safe solution that could reduce unscheduled downtime due to loss of ultrahigh vacuum A magnetically-coupled actuator avoids the need for ...
