Design and Operating Principle
ML6 is Meridian Laboratory's proprietary polyurethane compound, valued for abrasion resistance, tear strength, flexibility, chemical resistance and bond strength. Parts are precision molded to final dimensions in-house, usually without grinding or post-machining, and Meridian's mold library often avoids extra tooling charges.
Urethane absorbs impact energy and returns to shape, protecting end stops, grippers and products from repeated contact.
Integration and Selection
Select durometer for energy absorption and mounting for the fixture.
Use bonded versions for secure attachment.
