CASE STUDY

Polyurethane Idler Rollers in Less Than 7 Days

Precision Idler Rollers

After conducting some basic testing with standard products, available through the distributor, a worldwide aerospace design and engineering firm realized they required options and alternatives which the distributor was not willing to stock and carry, and was then directed to Meridian Laboratory.

Solutionpolyurethane idler rollers

Working directly with engineers at a major aerospace design and engineering firm, Meridian Laboratory was able to deliver low volume prototypes of their custom designed polyurethane idler rollers in a matter of days for testing and evaluation.  Following an extensive test period, and tests to conform with aerospace standards, Meridian Laboratory worked to answer customer questions to further the customer’s confidence in selecting Meridian Laboratory. The customer was able to quickly conduct quality and longevity testing, qualify and evaluate the product, and advise the custom polyurethane idler rollers to be certified for mass production.

Following certification and vendor approval, Meridian Laboratory worked with a variety of end-integrators and production facilities to ensure on-time deliveries for their high-volume production orders with proper documentation, and certification of conformance.

Key Statistics

  • Meridian Laboratory was able to deliver custom parts for testing and evaluation to end customer in less than 7 days, at no additional cost over stocked items.
  • Meridian Laboratory’s polyurethane ML6 delivered the precise, long-lasting, non-marking, and repeatable solution the customer required to make their first class cabin trays a successful.

    Excellent service! We faced Meridian with a difficult part to make and asked for perfection. They took the challenge on … More and through repeated effort and determination, Vance and the team were able to get us the "perfect" product we needed. Although this was undoubtedly a frustrating project for all involved, they saw it through and proved Meridian Laboratory to be exactly the company we needed and want to work with in the future. Great work!

    Adam and the crew at Meridian Laboratory were a pleasure to work with! Adam was extremely helpful, knowledgeable, and responsive. … More A slipring was purchased through Adam for the use of a university engineering capstone project, he was eager to help and very nice throughout the entire process to ensure our needs were satisfied. The slipring shipped and delivered in a timely manner and once the unit was received, all expectations were exceeded. The fit and finish of the slipring was great, and it performed exactly as expected. I highly recommend Meridian Laboratory if you require the use of a slipring, as I cannot say enough good things about the team over there and their American made products

    We contacted Adam Ellingson of Meridian Laboratory about acquiring a high-speed 3 channel ROTOCON slip-ring for our university … More capstone project. Mr. Ellingson was gracious enough to provide our team with a 6 channel slip-ring that performed excellent out of the box. The slip-ring assembly feels precisely machined and spins true with little mechanical resistance. It was the perfect product for testing our axial flux generator design and the extra channels came in handy. We appreciate the ease of mounting and excellent support from Mr. Ellingson.
