[ad_1] Impact biomechanics combines engineering and medicine to develop better safety systems and treatment options for those involved in impact injuries. Researchers use human cadavers, tissue simulants, and dummies to understand the biomechanical processes underlying impact injuries, which can lead to better medical treatment and the design of better safety systems. Impact biomechanics is the […]
[ad_1] Impact rollers provide additional support and absorb shock stresses at loading and transfer points on conveyor belts. They have a smaller core and thicker rubber coating with grooved surfaces for superior strength. They can be arranged in standard or suspended frames and spaced no more than 17 inches apart. An impact roller is one […]
