Using the lessons learned from the outer sole development, Gordon and Jeff set out to find a fiberglass-reinforced material for the shoe insole application that embodied the energy-returning effects of carbon fiber while also demonstrating the flexibility needed to preserve and support the body and muscles of the runner. Beyond running and walking, these insoles can be a game-changer for sports such as basketball, volleyball, tennis, etc. where repeated impacts from jumping and running are prevalent.

The Quantum™ Motor is one such product, a universal cutting tool in the meat processing industry that helps recover lean meat from fat and tissue. With any product update or change, there is risk,” said Joel Hall, Senior Engineering Manager from Bettcher.

This two-gram gasket is a critical component for keeping contact lens solution from leaking out of the container. However, before making the decision to switch from silicone to the Versaflex™ material, the company needed to feel confident that it would recoup its capital, which included a $50,000 investment in new tooling, within 12 months.

In addition, difficulty in removing these materials from the mold meant that they could not reproduce intricate geometric details. By switching to CORE™ VBX Series Vinyl Powders, from Avient, the supplier was able to produce the interior door panels with an estimated savings of $20 per door, or $80 per vehicle, translating to roughly $800,000 per year assuming niche vehicle production levels.
