Industrial Hydraulic and Pneumatic Applications for Elastomer Products
Industrial Hydraulic and Pneumatic Applications for Elastomer Products Extremely flexible and resilient, elastomer products are integral to the proper functioning of many industrial hydraulic applications. Elastomers—nitrile, hydrogenated nitrile (HNBR), silicone, flourosilicone (FVMQ), and fluoroelastomer (FKM), to name a few—can expand and contract to accommodate changes in volume and pressure without puncturing or becoming brittle. Durable, […]
How to Leverage EDM Technology for High-Tech Electromagnetic Parts
How to Leverage EDM Technology for High-Tech Electromagnetic Parts What do waveguides, septum polarizers, comparators, wide beam feeds, septum polarizer housings, feed horns, socket end waveguide gimbal feeds, chokes, and flanges all have in common? Each of these radio frequency (RF) communication parts has internal right angles—and the only way to accurately achieve these features […]
Design Tips for Durable Rubber-to-Metal Bonding
Design Tips for Durable Rubber-to-Metal Bonding When designing a part that incorporates rubber-to-metal bonding, there are several steps you can take to ensure a strong bonded seal. The primary concern with rubber-to-metal bonding is the design of the rubber itself. Improperly designed rubber components will pull away from the metal part over time. Our goal […]

How Micro-Tronics Leverages EDM Manufacturing for Unusual Alloys
How Micro-Tronics Leverages EDM Manufacturing for Unusual Alloys Have you struggled to get machined parts made from unusual alloys such as inconel, tungsten, rhenium and molybdenum? Precision machine shops tend to specialize in CNC machining, but some exotic materials require a different, non-contact manufacturing method: electronic discharge machining (EDM). At Micro-Tronics, we specialize in both […]
Could Your Application Benefit from Bonded Plate Seals?
Could Your Application Benefit from Bonded Plate Seals? The terms composite seals, plate seals, and bonded plate seals are often used to describe the same thing: a component made by chemically bonding an elastomer (rubber) to a metal plate in an optimum sealing geometry. At Micro-Tronics, we offer in-house rubber-to-metal bonding services for metal components […]
