PBC Linear has just received an award for
excellence in quality standards from a high profile medical imaging
company for 2008. With an astoundingly low product failure rate—less
than three parts per million, 100% on time delivery, and a huge impact
on cost savings for the customer, PBC Linear was delighted to accept
this year’s award.
This customer supplies the medical industry
with imaging technology used in X-ray machines. PBC Linear provides the
company with their D075 Uni-guide system with modified carriages for
mounting components. This product is installed into the heart of the
system’s X-ray imaging system. This system mounts directly on the
Uni-guide and relies on the product’s smooth and accurate linear motion
to receive correct images. Uni-guide’s simple, self-lubricating,
two-piece assembly allows for the product to be easily installed and
operate more accurately than re-circulating ball technology,
significantly reducing product failure rate.
Manufactured by PBC Linear in Roscoe,
Illinois, the Uni-Guide can be shipped as soon as the product is
assembled. The Uni-guide is carefully matched, carriage to rail, and
hard aluminum anodized to support a long life-span. Also, with PBC
Linear’s patented self-lubricating technology, the Uni-guide can provide
contaminant free linear motion that never requires additional
lubrication. This allows for a huge life-span cost savings for the
customer.
On time delivery is crucial in the medical
field, and PBC Linear makes a conscious effort to make certain the
correct product arrives before or by the expected ship date. PBC Linear
is pleased to report a 100% on time delivery rating with the customer.
