Within the health and beauty industry, miniature precision balls are used in a range of products. Miniature precision balls are defined as balls under 1/8th of an inch (3mm) in diameter, and they come available in a number of different materials.
For applications where the utmost precision is required, it's essential for components to be manufactured using precision balls. In high precision applications such as electrical contact, guidance systems, automotive bearings, and more, tolerances...
Precision balls are used for a wide range of applications in the automotive industry, particularly braking applications in which precision fluid control is required. In fact, precision balls allow for much of the technology that makes modern...
In high-pressure applications, valves must be equipped with perfectly constructed balls in order to function properly. Even the slightest cracks, burs, or other imperfections on the surface of the ball can lead to leaking, and, in some cases, the...
Though it may be the oldest industry in the world, modern technology has certainly helped out the agriculture industry immensely. Now, all manner of technological devices are used to make farming both less time-consuming and more productive. One...
Flow control valves are used in an increasingly wide range of applications across most every industry. However, for them to function properly, they must be fitted with a ball that is made within extremely tight tolerances. Ball precision is a...
When most people think of valves, they likely picture a device that either allows flow or blocks it. However, there are a large number of applications where flow must be more controlled and metered than simply turning it on and off. For these...
Big changes are rolling in to the Hartford Technologies headquarters! Recently, we acquired a state of the art precision ball inspection machine, the Aviko G2. Unlike other machines, the quality control provided by the Aviko G2 is carried out...
If you plan on deploying a piece of equipment up into the atmosphere, or even into outer space itself, you must make sure it is built with quality components. What we do is provide you with the appropriate balls for your next valves project. In this...
For most applications and industries, stainless steel ball bearings are the standard. There are, however, plenty of applications that call for ball bearings that are a little more specialized. One common non-metal ball bearing is the nylon ball, and...
