Written by Allied Time

Getting online is how you can get the best of your investment. Time clocks can either be analog or digital, but what you need to consider is that you should get your time clock online. So if you are wondering about why you should get your clock online, the single most important reason behind this is that you wouldn’t have to keep visiting the office in order to regularly check whether your employees have actually been working for as long as they claim to be.

Setting it up is not as difficult as you may think as well, because all you need is a clock that can be connected to the internet.

An online time clock is a godsend to any employer or management team. It can save you a whole lot of money.

Hydrophilic Medical Device Coatings

Written by: Denton Vacuum, LLC

Summary: Hydrophilic coatings, and improved manufacturing techniques, have vastly increased the capabilities of medical technology.

Medical device coatings have evolved over the years, using the properties of hydrophilic substances to coat devices that fit into the human body. This new development in manufacturing helps devices last longer, and humans wear them with less discomfort than ever before.

Hydrophilic Coatings Explained

Hydrophilic coatings date back to roughly 50 years ago. Doctors and scientists came to the understanding that the way devices integrated with the body directly impacted the care a patient received. They began work on substances that could interact with organic tissues. Manufacturing also had to catch up. The process of ion beam assisted vapor deposition is established today, but was in its infancy back then. The device is pliable in the body, able to comfortably set for long periods of time, and easier to remove. Fewer infections are another advantage to this technology that will help heal patients long term.

How it Works

The device, called a substrate, is placed into a chamber that allows for very specific temperatures. Another material with hydrophilic properties is superheated until it is broken down into a gaseous form. As the molecules bounce around the chamber, they come to settle on the substrate. The device is turned, so that the substrate receives an equal coating that is often mere microns in thickness.

The chamber is cooled at precise intervals, allowing the chemicals to dry without damaging the substrate.

Other applications

Diamond like carbon is broken down in a fashion similar to hydrophilic coating, and it is used to coat heavy-duty equipments. Joints that fit into patients might receive the coating to improve long-term wear.
