SPIROL
Laminated Shims SPIROL produces precision shims with or without a tool to meet lead-time and total cost considerations. Shims are thin pieces of material often used as compensators to fill in small gaps between objects aligning parts, reducing wear and absorbing tolerances between mating components. Shims can also significantly reduce manufacturing time and costs as they eliminate the need for each component to be precision machined in order to achieve the proper fit and function of the total assembly...

SPIROL
THE ADVANTAGES OF USING EDGE BONDED SHIMS Precision Shims are used as compensators to absorb tolerances between mating components. They significantly reduce manufacturing costs by eliminating the need for each component to be precision machined in order to achieve the proper fit and function of the total assembly. During the assembly process, Shims provide adjustment to compensate for accumulated tolerances that significantly reduces the need for re-machining and assembly time. Additionally, Shims are commonly used to preserve... (read more)Browse Shims and Shim Stock Datasheets for SPIROL -

Top Seiko Co., Ltd.
Why is it so hard to machine Tungsten? W " as the chemical symbol, is well-known in the highest melting point among all the metals. The melting point of tungsten is 3422? (6192?). Its density of tungsten is also quite high: 19.3 g/cm3. The high density enables it to work as radiation shields. Tungsten is a useful material under high temperature and high radiation environment. It is, however, not easy to make precision parts in tungsten because of its hardness and brittleness. Tungsten blocks are created by powder metallurgy. Each... (read more)
