Top Reasons to Switch to A Safer Solvent Legacy solvents like nPB, TCE and PERC, have reliably cleaned medical devices in the past. However, many companies now wish to move away from these traditional solvents for better choices. The new cleaning fluids are less hazardous for workers and the environment. This short video features the top reasons to switch to a safer solvent.
Modern Cleaning Fluids: The Top 5 Ways to Save View the top 5 ways you can save money with modern cleaning fluids.
Duraglide Dry Lubricant Features and Benefits; a Video Demo The ready-to-use Duraglide™ Dry Lubricant works extremely well on high-speed, high-volume mechanical assembly operations. In this product, PTFE particles are suspended in an nonflammable carrier fluid. Together, they produce a smooth, even coating that minimizes friction between moving parts and reduce actuation forces by 25% – 30%. Duraglide Dry Lubricants are ISO 10993 certified medical-grade...Continued
How Duraglide Coatings Reduce Stiction in Medical Devices Stiction is the combination of sticking and friction. As a result of stiction, some medical devices may be difficult to to slide, pivot or twist. Therefore, it’s important to reduce stiction during medical device manufacturing. This animation explains the process of coating parts with the Duraglide lubricant to reduce stiction. Note: the video is silent,...Continued
Duraglide™ Dry Film Lubricants Prevent Problems with Stacked Tolerances on Medical Devices “Stacked tolerances” is a term that describes a production problem in the engineering of medical devices when the cumulative effects of allowable variation aggregate towards a single vector or dimension. Normally, variances are expected to “average out” towards a design ideal. However, it is common — especially with injection-molded parts — to see tolerances gradually...Continued
The Benefits of Azeotropic Cleaning This short video highlights the benefits of azeotropic cleaning. It explains what an azeotrope is and how it helps in the critical cleaning of medical devices. Azeotropic cleaning fluids are specifically engineered to lower your costs, boost cleaning effectiveness, and enhance worker safety.
Vapor Degreasing Explained Vapor degreasing is an industrial cleaning process for precision parts. The process uses solvent immersion, combined with vapor rinsing and drying, to remove all types of oil, grease, wax, flux, and particulate. Take an in depth look at the vapor degreasing process, see the inner workings and learn why it is so effective at industrial...Continued
Vapor Degreasing for Medical Devices — How It Works MicroCare Medical delivers the high performance cleaning for medical devices using a process called “vapor degreasing.” This water-free process is a superior choice for medical devices because the process easily cleans parts of any size and geometry. Cleaning is fast and gentle, and the parts come out clean, dry and cool to the touch. Perhaps...Continued
How to Cost Justify Vapor Degreasing Many medical parts manufacturing companies use some sort of precision cleaning during their manufacturing processes. This video summarizes the best way to cost justify the change from aqueous cleaning to a precision cleaning fluid cleaning.
Coming Clean on Vapor Degreasing There are many benefits of vapor degreasing. Vapor degreasing is an often-misunderstood critical cleaning process. It delivers perfectly clean parts quickly, easily, safely and inexpensively. But to many engineers it sounds too good to be true. This video from MicroCare briefly explains what vapor degreasing is, how it works, and the benefits it delivers.
