Technology Tuesdays: A look at high performance engineering plastics
In the latest episode of Design World’s Technology Tuesdays Podcast, Editorial Director Paul J. Heney speaks with Ray Szparagowski, Engineering Fellow with Freudenberg NOK Sealing Technologies about the latest in high performance engineering plastics. These materials are increasingly being used for bearing/bushing applications. They offer design flexibility and reduced weight. However, performance is often limited due to poor design and material selections. Ray talks about some of the ways technology is making fluid work better in engineered systems.
