It's All About Life

The life of a cartridge heater is dependent on a wide variety of factors:

  1. Watt Density
  2. Heater Design (integrity of resistance wire, amount of insulation)
  3. Process Temperature
  4. Temperature Control Mechanism
  5. Heat Sink Material
  6. Fit in the bore
  7. Environmental Factors (Contamination, Shock, Vibration)

Watt-Flex® cartridge heaters continue to outlast conventional heaters in customer
trials in a wide variety of applications from packaging, plastics, metal die casting,
lamination dies and huge forming hammer dies at 1800°F. Over the next few weeks
we will discuss these factors and how we, as salespeople, can optimize on each.

This is a particularly critical process since our continuing success in the world of
sales depends on our ability to serve our customers as problem solvers.

Friday Funnies

Four macho guys went on a fishing expedition. To save a little money, they rented a small cabin that had only two bedrooms. Bill slept with Charlie the first night and he came to breakfast next morning with his hair a mess, and his eyes all bloodshot. The other two asked, "What happened to you?"

Bill said, "That Charlie, he snores so loud, I was kept awake watching him all night. I can't do that another night so one of you has got to do it!"

Since Charlie snored so loudly, no one else wanted to room with him, but they finally agreed to take turns.

The next night was Oscar's turn. In the morning, the same thing - hair all standing up, eyes all blood shot. Oscar declared, "Man, that Charlie shakes the roof. And he sleeps so hard, I couldn't wake him! I watched him all night."

The third night was Steve's turn. The next morning Steve came to breakfast bright eyed and bushy tailed. The other two couldn't believe it!

"What happened?" they asked, "How on earth did you sleep with all that racket?" Steve said, "Well, as we got ready for bed, I went and tucked Charlie into bed and kissed him good night. He watched ME all night long."
