For test purposes, 0.250" diameter rods in lengths of one to nine inches and 0.375" and 0.500" diameter rods in lengths of two to twelve inches were tested. Rods were mounted horizontally with one end fixed and supported while opposite ends were left free and unsupported. Rod end deflection measurements were made after applying each sample load to each unsupported rod length. Loads for the 0.250" diameter rods ranged from one to five pounds and five to twenty-five pounds for the 0.375" and 0.500" diameter rods. Rod material is 304 stainless steel, as used in the shaft construction of all MDC motion and manipulation instruments.


Products & Services
Hydraulic cylinders are actuation devices that utilize pressurized hydraulic fluid to produce linear motion and force.
Rod end bearings contain a bearing that can accommodate a shaft or rod with varying misalignment. They attach to a static rod via a threaded shaft.
Crossed roller slides are simple linear motion devices that consist of a stationary base and a moving carriage. The rollers are crossed at a 90° angle in an alternating fashion and are enclosed in the rails, which have a machined V-shaped groove to support the rollers.
Air cylinders are pneumatic linear actuators that are driven by a pressure differential in the cylinder's chambers. They may be single-acting (with a spring return) or double-acting.
Plastic plate, rod and semi-finished shapes include shaped plastic parts and semi-finished plastic stock.
