FingerPrint™

Optional seal monitoring for the TS-100

Every seal leaves a trace.

A load cell between the sealing jaws and the carriage records every seal, and flags any that drift from a saved master.

FingerPrint trace of one seal: jaw force over time, redrawn from AnC test data. Force jumps to a peak of about 42 pounds, eases off while the seal area melts during the dwell, then drops back when the jaws open.

Certification

Tube testing lab

Know your tubes before you run them.

When a seal fails, is it the tube, the machine, the product or the setup? Our lab helps you find out.

Send at least 100 tubes from one lot. Results take 3 to 5 days: a certificate, all the recorded data, and our recommended speed, heat and setup for your machine.

About AnC

An aerospace machine shop that builds for tube filling.

For more than 30 years AnC has made parts and assemblies to aerospace standards, from parts on Mars with the rover project to sonar projects deep in the ocean. Since 1988 it has brought that precision to tube packaging, with its own sealers, testers, change parts and testing lab.

In Memoriam

Gregory Lee Havemann

The man who built AnC Precision to the company it is today.

From precision aerospace components to innovative packaging solutions, his vision lives on through AnC. Some of Greg's greatest projects are precision components that landed on Mars with his signature, as well as the first benchtop hot air tube sealer that made high quality sealing solutions accessible for the average consumer. Greg has two patents to his name in the quality control side of tube packaging and has set standards that are used by the largest companies today.

He will be missed by many.

“We have been using AnC Precision Machining, Inc. for several years and have been very satisfied with the competitive pricing, precision of the parts and lead times. As a contract manufacturer of topical drug products, all three are critical to our success.”
