Hello Everyone, Please excuse our lapse in blogging. We make our blogging return with a video about a unique package testing application we performed. The test requires a 12.2 meter Package Drop Test Video for Test Spec. PRF 12990872. This includes a temperature pre-conditioning to determine if temperature has an effect on the product at the time of impact. Enjoy the video, and send along any questions or comments.
Cascade TEK recognizes the market's demands for vacuum ovens that can be easily tailored to meet unique drying requirements. After reevaluating our mid-sized vacuum oven design, we created the new SVO-501, a five cubic foot vacuum drying oven, and made specific improvements to the temperature uniformity and increased process automation features. These changes translate into improved drying time, greater batch consistency and ease of use for our customers.
