Catalog EPS 5350/USAOther Parker EPS ProductsFinite Element Analysis &Seal Design OptimizationUsing sophisticated Finite ElementAnalysis (FEA) software, Parkerengineers can analyze critical designinformation, such as stressconcentration, heat transfer, fluid flowand electromagnetic properties of newand existing seal geometry. Thisstreamlines tooling and productionprocesses, and helps ensure theselection of the right material andgeometry for your application. UsingFEA technology, our engineers candetermine:FEA plot of aParker Seal geometryunder compression• Deformation(deformed shape)• Volume/void ratios,gland fill %• Stress distribution• Load - Deflection• Stability analysis• Friction force• Thermal effects• Material evaluation• Seal life predictionWear Rings and BearingsParker is pleased to offer acomplete line of MolyGard,WearGard and PTFE wearrings and bearing products to fitany application. Expertise in bothengineered hard plastics and inPTFE makes Parker the global leader for reciprocatingbearing materials. By incorporating premium material blendswith precision machining tolerances (down to ± .001"), Parkermeets the full spectrum of needs, from heavy duty hydrauliccylinders operating under the highest temperatures andpressures to pneumatic applications requiring low friction,long life and self-lubrication.See: Catalog EPS 5276See: Catalog EPS 5220See: Catalog EPS 5275Integrated Piston AssemblyParker’s Integrated Pistoncombines the piston, bearing andseal into a self-contained packagefor low, medium and high pressurehydraulic cylinder applications.ProTech Bearing IsolatorsProTech bearing isolators are theultimate in bearing protection withunitized, two-piece, non-contactdesign.
