In our February 2022 edition of Process Heating, see how medical advancements have spurred demand for single-use devices such as catheters, the 10 most common ways to convey product through an oven, a call for nominations for our inaugural Innovation Award and so much more!
Medical advancements have spurred demand for single-use devices such as catheters, and the materials and thermal processing requirements for manufacturing catheters vary depending on intended uses. It is important to select a manufacturing process that optimizes product quality for the intended use.
Baby Boomers remains the second largest generational group in the United States (behind Millennials), and it is responsible for steady increases in the median age of the population. An aging population, likewise, has led to an increase in the number of physician visits as well as advancements in health care technology.
Advanced materials such as liquid resins, fiber cloths impregnated with resin and bonding adhesives are engineered to have specific curing regimes to maximize strength and durability. In many instances, resins and adhesives will harden at room temperature; however, heat may be required to complete or speed up the necessary chemical reactions.
Use the 2022 edition of our industrial temperature controller selection tool to compare process and temperature control makers and find those with experience with your industrial heating process.
Companies have many choices when it comes to conveying methods to move a load through an oven. Factors to consider when selecting a conveying system include the product configuration, weight, oven temperature and desired process flow.
