Everyday I interacted with many customers. It is truly a privilege to have a chance to know them and serve them. Today I learned something important from a customer, Mr. John Murtaugh from
TWO BIRDS ANTIQUES
Here is a brief description of Two Birds Antiques
Angela Kier and husband John Murtaugh began Two Birds Antiques in 1997. The couple became fascinated with 18th Century English ceramics in 1989 after the purchase of a piece of 1770’s Wedgwood creamware. They created Two Birds Antiques not only as a business but also as a way to connect with other individuals who share a passion for ceramics, their philosophy is simple… Treat each customer as a friend (most end up that way) and stand behind each item with a guarantee. Two birds Antiques exhibit at shows across the USA. We do not have an open shop but are available by appointment to both buy and sell. Angela is a candidate member of the American Society of Appraisers- The international Society of Professional Valuers.
What struck a special cord in me is their business philosophy: Treat each customer as a friend (most end up that way) and stand behind each item with a guarantee. What a beautiful and heartfelt statement. John, thank you for giving us a chance to serve you.

- Cooling – the rollers are cored to take cooling water. If you plan to use the machine consecutively 30 min or less, you do not even need to connect it. If you do need it, pleas use automotive antifreeze coolant and use a small immersion pump to pump water into the rollers.
- Leaking from the side. There are normal two causes for leaking at the side.
- One is that the rollers are not parallel. The narrower side will have past coming out. Please adjust accordingly.
- The end plates do not fit on the rollers tightly. The rollers are machined to +/- 0.002-0.005mm tolerance concentricity. The end plate arc are ground to about the same. However they will not exactly match. At the same time, when the roller gap changes, the gap between the roller and end plates will change too. When you set up, please use one hand to press the end plate against the roller and then gently tighten the screw to fix end plate position. Do not over tighten the end plate screw. After a few months’ use, the end plates will match roller very well.

Last week we shipped a machine to a big high tech epoxy resin company. Their R&D was very happy about our machine and allowed us to take a short video. The milling looks good after one pass. Check it out in Youtube.

Last week a customer in Los Angeles area was kind enough to share this short video with us. The end products are high end cosmetics (like Richgirl Lipsticks).

If you are a fan of Wikipedia, like me, you may be surprised that there was no entry in Wikipedia about three roll mills. Why? You tell me. Welll, we decided to take the lead. Please check out our entry about three roll mills in Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three_roll_mill.

A few days ago, I shared the new application of three roll mills on fuel cells. Another new application is used in nanotech. A professor customer is mixing clays with epoxy to form nanocomposites. I was told the epoxy is diglycidyl ether of bisphenol A. Our three-roll mill was found to be an effective means of dispersion and exfoliation of the clay particles in the matrix. Compared to the conventional direct and solution mixing techniques, the compounding of clay/epoxy nanocomposites by a three-roll mill was found to be highly efficient in achieving higher levels of intercalation/exfoliation in a short period of time. I wish I understood what he was talking about.

Lately we are getting a lot of inquiries for our popular lab models. The application is fuel cells. Guess everyone is going green. Our lab models are being used by at least 10+ customers in making electrodes for Solid State Fuel Cells and more. Fascinating applications. Fuel cell is one of the solutions for our future energy needs.
I was fortunate to chair a technical conference about fuel cells. In this conference, I learned a lot of about fuel cells and co-edited the presentations into a book: Fuel Cell Electronics Packaging, published by Springer. Here is the link: http://www.springer.com/west/home/generic/search/results?SGWID=4-40109-22-173727516-0
Today’s commercial, medical and military electronics are becoming smaller and smaller. At the same time, these devices are packed with more functions and demand more power. This power requirement is currently met almost exclusively by battery power. A fuel cell is like a battery converting chemical energy directly to electricity. The convergence of fuel cell technology and microelectronics is enabling the new design and manufacturing of fuel cells.
Fuel Cell Electronics Packaging presents the latest developments in the technology convergence of microelectronics and fuel cells. Using the well established manufacturing methods used in microelectronics packaging, fuel cells can be further fabricated in smaller sizes with higher energy density, at a faster pace and lower cost. This book uniquely addresses this issue. Fuel Cell Electronics Packaging serves as a practical reference guide for engineers, researchers, and manufacturers of microelectronic and fuel cell products who are interested in topics such as:
- ceramic hybrid separators for micro fuel cells
- miniature fuel cells built with LTCC technology
- novel fuel cells fabricated using microelectronics technology
- fuel cell thermal management
Written by a variety of professional and academic sources, Fuel Cell Electronics Packaging is a valuable resource for those interested in the latest advances in fuel cell technology. Written for:
Scientists, engineers, and researchers interested in the development of fuel cells and microelectronic products
