Aluminum is fast emerging as the preeminent material in the injection molding plastics industry. The benefits of using aluminum tooling as opposed to steel tooling in the process of fashioning molded plastic parts are numerous. However, there are some distinct drawbacks that one must take into account before deciding which metal to select for a particular project. The most effective way to make this critical decision is to use various methods of computer simulation. Simulation allows a firm to examine the myriad of unique factors surrounding a specific project, and how they affect the decision of which type of metal to use.

Learn which types of programs are best for which types of projects, and how the engineers at SimuTech can help you decide which simulation programs best fit the specifications of your firm’s projects.

It’s a simple fact. Qualified sales leads are the lifeblood of any sales organization. So why are so many leads ignored or underutilized?

In this paper we will make the case for three possible changes in your thinking:

• Sales and marketing organizations are better served by spending marginally less on lead generation and more on the process of lead management.

• All sales leads are not created equal — identifying “sales-ready” leads is a critical step in the lead generation and management process.

• Leads that are not sales-ready today can be nurtured and cultivated to be sales-ready in the future.

Sioux Falls, SD (March 9, 2011)— Raven Industries Engineered Films Division announces Dura-Skrim®  Textured K-Series; a new geomembrane product line specifically engineered for the geosynthetic industry. Dura-Skrim Textured K-Series is a unique textured reinforced geomembrane available in polyethylene or flexible polypropylene and is the first of this type in the industry.  Dura-Skrim Textured    K-Series is manufactured utilizing a cast extrusion process to achieve a consistent core thickness with uniform asperity heights. Raven’s exclusive GeoGrip™ surface technology consists of a durable random spike pattern with bidirectional bars to provide uniform stabilization and an increased friction between various soil and geosynthetic layers allowing for steeper slope designs. Dura-Skrim Textured K-Series is designed for applications requiring exceptional slope stability such as landfill caps, mining leach pads and containment ponds to name a few. 

“Dura-Skrim Textured K-Series combines the exceptional performance characteristics of our smooth K-Series membranes with our innovative GeoGrip™ surface texture to bring the industry a highly versatile geomembrane,” notes Jim Groninger, Vice President and General Manger for the Raven Engineered Films Division. Jim continues, “We had consistently received requests for a textured reinforced membrane and engineered our product around this customer feedback to develop our new product line.”

The new Dura-Skrim Textured K-Series will be highlighted at this year’s Geo-Frontiers 2011 Conference in Dallas, TX at Raven Engineered Films booth #902. Dura-Skrim Textured K-Series is currently available in single or double-side textured 36 mil (K36BT) and 45 mil (K45BT) thicknesses and is sold in a variety of widths and lengths to meet project requirements.  Large diameter mill rolls are available as well as large factory welded one-piece drop-in panels for efficient installations.

For more information, please visit the Raven geomembrane website at www.RavenGeo.comor contact us direct with any questions.  The Raven website features product information as well as many useful tools to conduct geomembrane calculations in our commitment to support the geosynthetics community by working to continuously improve knowledge on processes and available products. Raven houses a state-of-the-art laboratory onsite with “GAI-LAP” accreditation for the testing of geosynthetics as well as support of the Raven facility through our ISO 9001:2008 certified management system.

Foam materials made from rubber and plastics are a ubiquitous part of modern life,
serving as indispensable components in everything from advanced medical and aerospace
applications to everyday consumer items. A wide variety of foam materials have been
developed that effectively and reliably serve many different functions, including sealing,
temperature insulation, sound attenuation, vibration damping, and shock absorption.
However, when foam products fail, it may not be because of a deficiency of the foam
material, but because of problems with the adhesive system. All too frequently,
adhesives do not stand up to the rigors of the end use application, or they break down
during transport and storage, prior to the foam component being finally affixed.
Inadequate adhesive systems also cause problems during the fabrication and conversion
of foam products, resulting in product damage and waste, and in disruptions of the
manufacturing process.
