The product owner for a leading manufacturer of micro fluid metering equipment was facing a significant reliability problem threatening their market leading position. A critical linear rod seal was causing high breakout friction and "dithering"
They researched online and asked us to provide a generic/standard profile PTFE/Spring energized seal. Their goal was to eliminate dither/chatter thus allowing them to continue using their existing servo motor while preventing fluid leaking across the seal.
Projected results show dithering is eliminated without damaging servo motor. As a result the customer expects 30% improvement in metering accuracy and >25% improvement in uptime reliability.
Ongoing predictable seal performance is assured regardless of influences inside and outside the supply chain by deploying Darcoid’s Seal Performance Creep controls
