Manufacturer for PTFE Braided Gland Packing for Orlando Factories

Braided with 100% expanded PTFE, soft character, super fiber strength, ideal abrasion resistant material.

Special porous structure of the fiber can better absorb and reserve lubrication and heat conductive agent useful for the sealing of packing to assure of consistency of lubrication and heat conductive agent, great reduction of possibility of efficacy loss. Much better meets demands of rigid using conditions.

With the exception of very few chemicals, resists almost medium.

HOW TO VACUUM FORM IN 3 EASY STEPS

STEP 1: Secure your thermoform plastic between the Hobby Vacuum Former’s metal clamping frames with the provided spring clips. Attach your Shop-Vac (not included) to the vacuum former. Place your model on top of the vacuum formers perforated aluminum platen.

STEP 2: Place the thermoform plastic in your kitchen oven and watch as it begins to sag. When the plastic becomes soft, remove it from the oven. Align the metal clamping frames with the Hobby Vacuum Former’s guides and lower the plastic over your model.

STEP 3: The hot thermoform plastic forms an air tight seal around the edges of the aluminum vacuum platen. Vacuum pressure pulls the hot plastic down around the model. After cooling for a few seconds the thermoform plastic part hardens and is ready to be removed.

We have developed a new method for puppeteers to remotely control mechanical characters without the use of motors. The pair of robot arms shown in this video are connected only by flexible pneumatic tubing. There are no pumps, valves, sensors, motors, or electronic controllers used. The passive connection between the two arms is made entirely by air pressure, allowing a large separation between the character and the puppeteer, and tight bends in the air control lines. The key technology is an ultra-low friction pneumatic transmission, enabled by the use of rolling diaphragm seals, instead of traditional sliding o-ring seals. If motorized, the transmission allows the motors to be placed in the body, rather than mounted to the arm, leaving the arms much lighter, and capable of faster and more graceful motion. The robot arm in this video was designed and built by Tianyao Chen, Peter Whitney, and Jessica Hodgins.
