Bellows can perform a variety of tasks in a mechanical system, including vibration dampening, absorption of displacement in a piping system, compensating for misplacement and misalignment, and the protection of brittle components (glass, graphite, glass-lined steel, etc.).
Beginners Guide to Polymers and DMA
To determine certain properties of polymers, it is necessary to do a Dynamic Modulus Analyzer, or DMA. This is important because polymers behave very differently from metals when under a load. In this blog post, we are going to provide a beginners guide to why DMA is necessary and how it affects our choice of polymers.
