Individual consultancy projects can be undertaken based on client requirements. This may vary from a short assessment of the equipment and application with provision of recommended actions to an in depth investigation and provision of detail design data including liaison with potential seal suppliers. Project duration may vary from half day to several weeks.
This can be supplemented by test work at suitable contract research organisations for assessment of seals or materials where necessary.
A number of consultancy projects have been successfully completed using the very latest techniques with knowledge gained from liaison with seal suppliers while preparing monthly editions of Sealing Technology Newsletter.
Experience of consultancy projects varies from small high volume domestic and automotive components to large scale specialised industrial plant. This has included O-rings, static seal designs, reciprocating cylinder seals, rotary shaft seals, mechanical seals, compression packing, assessment of special seal materials and assistance with test procedure requirements to ensure reliability.
Consultancy projects are carried out under conditions of strict client confidentiality.
