Technology
For over three decades, the CDI Seals ‘Technology Factor’ has grown to become the keystone of our success in the oilfield fluid sealing and processing industry.
CDI Seals has an ongoing commitment to identify new technologies that are relevant to cost effective oilfield seal design and manufacturing. CDI Seals then implements these elements, with the goal of providing our customers with progressive solutions to their sealing requirements.
CDI Seals’ pursuit of new technologies is not limited to oilfield design criteria. It is also directed at manufacturing process improvements that enable CDI to produce high-quality seals in the Aerospace, Fluid Handling, and Scientific markets.
Innovation
Technology alone is not sufficient to consistently furnish sealing solutions to a broad range of industries with diverse requirements.
Innovation in design at CDI Seals is driven by our skilled engineering staff and supported by CAD/CAM technology. Innovation becomes the norm when proven design equations are computerized for repeatability.
Innovative thinking with respect to materials, design, and applications is absolutely necessary to cope with the ever more difficult sealing parameters that face our customers.
New capabilities initiated by CDI Seals
Our engineering and sales staff becomes the basis for innovation, tailored specifically for our customer’s applications. In the area of materials innovation, CDI Seals partners with major polymer suppliers around the globe to create seals from ‘nano-tech’ elastomers, and high performance thermoplastics, for all types of industries.
Reliability
At CDI Seals, reliability is the result of uniting Technology and Innovation with quality controlled manufacturing.
Pursuant to our ISO 9001:2000 certification, CDI Seals monitors and evaluates all aspects of manufacturing to ensure a consistently reliable product for our customers. Training in safety, production techniques, and quality procedures is ongoing for our employees who have a genuine concern for the reliability of the seals they produce.
QA involvement throughout the entire manufacturing process, from contract review to final certification, assures the reliability of the documentation we provide our customers, as well as that of the seals we manufacture.
CDI Seals reliability is maintained with field support and training at customer locations around the world. |
