Nitinol is a metal alloy of nickel and titanium with unique properties, including superelasticity and shape memory. It can be folded up in order to be inserted into the body, then return to its original cast shape and size when in place.
Fluke salt baths help ensure consistent and repeatable processes for medical device manufacturing and Nitinol forming by providing stability and uniformity specifications that are up to 10x that of a typical heat-treating bath.
Precise heating and quenching...

You’ve got the approval and the budget to purchase a new pressure calibration system. Now how do you find the perfect solution? Asking yourself these six questions is a great way to get started. You'll want to examine your workload, the location of the calibration, pressure generation and control, and automation among other factors.
Choosing a pressure calibration system: questions to ask
1. What is the accuracy or uncertainty of the device to be tested?
Once you...

In aerospace applications, pressure transducers and switches play critical roles in monitoring many systems throughout the aircraft—from hydraulics and electromechanical systems to avionics. Braking, propulsion, wing flap control, cabin pressure and countless other functions rely on pressure transducers and switches to ensure that the process is happening correctly. Accuracy is critical.
Because these devices are constantly subjected to extreme vibration, frequent ambient temperature changes...

Investing in calibration automation software (also referred to as calibration management software) is a major undertaking for any laboratory. While many metrologists and lab managers see the potential benefits, there’s a steep learning curve and a litany of decisions to research along the way. Beyond the financial cost, cal labs must consider the investment of staff time in learning to use and configure the software, and questions about how best to integrate automation software into their...

A rotameter, also called variable area flowmeter, is inherently a volumetric flow measurement device. The word origin is rota(tion) + messer/measure/meter. The scale can be in mass flow units if the volume flow rate is multiplied by a specified density, and in dimension units (mm) or percent.
An indicator floats at a steady value when the forces on it are equal. The main forces are the weight of the float (downward) and the drag force of the fluid (upward). Other forces are the difference in...
