![Polycarbonate Test Fixture Blanks]( "Polycarbonate Test Fixture Blanks")
Polycarbonate Test Fixture Blanks
Polycarbonate Test Fixtures and G-10/FR4 Test Fixtures are used in the testing of printed circuit boards. In ATE fixtures, these polycarbonate blanks are drilled in a specific pattern to match the circuit design and layout of the PCB. Professional Plastics offers pre-cut polycarbonate blanks for test fixtures used primarily in "Bed of Nails Testers".
In ATE equipment, the most popular test method is "pin-based testers" using a fixture called a "Bed of Nails". The first generation bare board testing machines used fixtures and tooling, dedicated for everyboard design The test technique, known as the ' bed of nails' testing, consists of a bed of spring-loaded probes, each one connected to its own electronic circuitry arrayed on a matrix of 0.10" grid. Dedicated fixtures are made with a top plate drilled with the personality of the PWB and the bottom plate interfacing with the tester, with each test pin wire wrapped to a contact point on the bottom fixture.
The individual pins or "nails" as they are called, do not flex under load the nearest spring-loaded probe below will never be more than 0.07" away requiring an attitude of less than two degreesfrom the vertical. This type of fixture can be dismantled at will and with the exception of the top plate unique to the board under test, and is totally re-usable. The nails and probes are pointed and gold plated for good contact. The springs are designed to obtain optimum contact pressure.The bare board testing has since evolved itself in fixture design, ability to work on finer pitches than 0.01".

![Polyimide Ferrules Overview for GC & GC/MS]( "Polyimide Ferrules Overview for GC & GC/MS")
Polyimide Ferrules Overview for GC & GC/MS
Graphite and Polyimide ferrules for GC and GC/MS instruments. We offer the largest variety and quantity of graphite, 100% Polyimide and Polyimide/Graphite composite ferrules.
TL-POLYIMIDE ™ FERRULES - THE NEXT GENERATION POLYIMIDE FERRULES
Available Composites:
- TL-100 : unfilled or 100% TL-POLYIMIDE ™
- TL-085 : 85% TL-POLYIMIDE ™ and 15% graphite
- TL-060 : 60% TL-POLYIMIDE ™ and 40% graphite
Superior Thermal Properties:
- TL-100 ferrules have a continous operating temperature in excess of 350°C. Between 250°C and 325°C . TL-100 shows only minor sticking to the polyimide clad column and usually can be removed with only a minor tug and then easily reinserted.
- TL-100 ferrules have a short term use to 450°C and perform well at 400°C with no deformation of the ferrule.
- TL-085 & TL-060 do not stick to the cloumn and can handle temperatures well above 450°C.
Superior Sealing Performance:
- TL-POLYIMIDE™ ferrules are appreciably softer than other polyimide materials thus enabling the ferrule to easily form around an inconsistent column OD.
- TL-POLYIMIDE™'s Coefficient of Linear Thermal Expansion (CTE) is substantially lower than other polyimide materials thus reducing the tendency to loosen in the fitting.
Unique processing makes TL-Polyimide™ BETTER - You can see the difference !!
TL-Polyimide™ ferrules are direct formed under high temperature and free sintering as opposed to other polyimide ferrules direct formed under room temperature. Direct forming under high temperature results in increasing density; the elimination of micro voids and porosity; a low CTE (high-stability) and non-traceable out-gassing.
TL-Polyimide™ uses a phenolic solvent that has a high boiling point for the syntheses of polyimide as opposed to the use of dipolar aprotic amide solvent as the reaction media resulting in a higher molecular weight than other polyimide materials produced with the conventional reaction media.
TL-Polyimide™ Graphite Composites utilize "Micro-Composition" by In-situ reaction when bleanding graphite with the polyimide material. Other polyimide materials utilize the conventional methods of wet or dry blending. The conventional methods result in graphite covering the surface of the polyimide particles, which interrupt effective contract of the polyimide particles to one another. Thus, molded parts show a low friction coefficient, but result in poor wear resistance and mechanical strength. The TL-Polyimide In-situ reaction method does not cause an interruption on the polyimide particles; generates excellent wear properties and high mechanical strength of the molded parts. The enhanced dispersion of the graphite can easily be detected from the shining and slick surface on the TL-Polyimide™ graphite composite ferrules as compared to the dull surfaces on other polyimide/graphite composite ferrules.

![ProDrive ® Hammer Cushion Pads]( "ProDrive ® Hammer Cushion Pads")
ProDrive ® Hammer Cushion Pads
ProDrive ® Hammer Cushion Pads for Pile Driving
Cushion pads are used to improve the pile-driving process, a common activity in the construction
of large structures such as bridges and buildings. Piles—heavy beams of concrete, steel, or other
material—are pounded into the ground by a large "hammer" attached to a crane. The cushion
pad, which sits inside a "helmet" placed between the hammer and the pile, must transmit force
while protecting the pile.
Cushion Pads have proven themselves in all types of pile driving applications. Professional
Plastics has the ability to cut pads to your specifications on our CNC Router. Hammer cushion
pads have to be strong to withstand the pounding and to transmit the driving force needed while
protecting your equipment and the pile. Hammer cushion pads extend the life of your hammer
while transmitting the maximum striking force to the pile.
Made of high impact Phenolic Material, or Impact Resistant Cast Nylon, these cushion pads will
absorb the initial hammer shock while transferring the power that you need to the helmet and into
the pile. By absorbing this initial hammer shock, these cushion pads reduce the tremendous wear
and stress hammers are subjected to, thereby, minimizing breakdowns and nonproductive
down times. Damage to the contact point of the pile is also lessened often making it unnecessary
to trim the pile which can be a time consuming and costly procedure.
ProDrive ® Canvas Phenolic Cushion Pads provide tremendous impact resistance and
stability while absorbing shock. Canvas phenolic is made from a medium weave cotton cloth
fabric and mixed with phenolic resins to provide good wear resistance, low moisture absorption,
and good mechanical strength at economical cost.

![Replacing Metal With Plastics]( "Replacing Metal With Plastics")
Replacing Metal With Plastics
Why Designers Continue To Replace Metal Parts With Engineering Plastics
Mechanical engineers and designers are increasingly replacing existing metals parts with components made from engineering plastics. A common misconception is that this trend is based purely on reducing the initial cost per part, but the reality is quite different. Engineering plastics are often more expensive than metals, but provide benefits such as improved performance, longer part life, and reduced downtime. This long-term, "overall cost of ownership" approach is driving a strong market for engineered plastic solutions.
Here are a few of the product features and benefits that are driving the trend towards increased use of engineering plastics.
Wear Resistance
In high-wear applications, many plastic materials will outperform brass & other metal bearing materials. Plastics such as Nylon, UHMW, PTFE, Acetal and Turcite® offer natural lubricity to increase wear resistance and extend the part life of bearings, rollers, gears, and seals.
Lightweight
When replacing metal parts, plastics will typically reduce the part weight by 30% to 50%.This can translate to significant energy savings when used in applications such as transportation, linear motion, and material handling.
Temperature Resistance
Plastics, ceramics, and composites have been developed which resist both extremely high & extremely low cryogenic temperature ranges with minimal loss of mechanical properties. Materials such as Celazole® PBI can continually operate at up to 750°F, while materials such as Kel-F® PCTFE can operate at -400°F.
Impact Resistance & Shock Absorption
Many plastics and composites offer excellent impact resistance. Materials such as Polycarbonate are used for impact-resistant glazing and shields. Nylon, UHMW and Polyurethane will absorb impact shock and isolate stress points to protect surrounding components.
Insulation Properties
Many plastics have excellent insulation properties, reducing heat, and improving product reliability. Laminates such as G-10/FR-4, GPO-3 and LE Phenolic are used extensively in electrical and transportation industries to insulate from heat and electrical shock. Thermoplastics such as PTFE and Meldin® work well in high-temperature insulating applications.
Corrosion Resistance
Metals are inherently susceptible to corrosion from moisture, acids, and organic solvents. Many plastics were designed specifically to combat these problems. Materials such as PVC, CPVC, Polypropylene, and PTFE offer superior corrosion resistance at an economical price.
Medical Approval
Many plastics have been approved for use in medical applications ranging from heart pump valves to endoscopic instruments. Products meet FDA, USP Class VI, and ISO 10993 standards. Such materials include Radel®, PEEK, Ultem®, and Polycarbonate.
Fire Safe
Dozens of plastic materials have been developed to meet common aircraft, transportation, semiconductor, and UL ratings for flame and smoke safety. Specifications include FAR, FTA, FRA, ASTM, UL and FM. In the semiconductor industry materials meeting the FM-4910 specification have reduced or eliminated the need for costly fire-suppression systems, and thus have reduced overall equipment costs. In some cases, the use of these materials have even reduced insurance costs in high-liability applications. Common flame-retardant and flame-safe materials include: Kydex®, Boltaron®, Halar®, CP7-D, FRPP, Corzan® CPVC, and Kynar® 740 PVDF.
High Purity
Plastics have long been a crucial product used in the manufacturing of high-purity fluid & gas handling applications. Many plastics have eliminated the concerns of out-gassing, leaching, and other contamination in crucial high-purity systems. These products include: PTFE, PFA, FEP, Halar® and Kynar® PVDF.
Static Control
Several plastics and composites have anti-static qualities to prevent the build up of an electric charge. Products range from conductive materials 102 to 106, and static dissipative 106 to 1010, to highly resistive materials 1010 to 1012.
