From a batch size of one — even when the size does not exist
When dimension, medium or temperature falls outside the catalogue, we develop the seal together with your design department. With us a prototype does not have to justify a minimum quantity.
V-ring for cell separation in medical technology
An example from practice showing what becomes possible with a new design.
Freedom from foreign particles in the downstream filters, plus cleanability and sterilisability during the running process.
A newly designed V-ring seal with minimal dead space, material FKM to FDA and USP Class VI, temperature-resistant to 230 °C, CIP- and SIP-capable. On request in food-grade FFKM or metal-detectable.
No foreign particles in the filters, longer service life, less maintenance effort, lower energy consumption.
What we can start with
For a sound answer the installation situation as a drawing or model is usually enough — PDF, DXF, DWG or STP. Plus the operating data, as far as you know them:
- Shaft and housing diameter, available width
- Speed or circumferential speed
- Pressure on the sealing side, and temperature
- Medium to be sealed, and lubrication conditions
If you do not know some of the figures, that is no problem. That is exactly what the conversation is for.
