Spherical Fitting Display Uncovers Mystery
Posted on May 27th, 2009 No comments
Sometimes a product is so well engineered, that only a hands-on demonstration can provide the “ah-ha” moment that commonly signifies clear understanding.
This was the case with the Mueller NO-BLO® Spherical Stopper Fitting display as shown recently at the AGA Show in Pittsburg:
“The spherical fitting was a huge hit with our people and the customers. It succeeded in garnering increased interest in the product, which has been out for several years. Our people praised it. Many people stopped to show their associates how such a fitting works. . . It was fun to watch peoples’ faces when they rotated the piece and finally saw how this thing works.”
Robert Abbott
Mueller Co.The display incorporates a hidden bearing that allows the lower hemisphere of the display to be rotated 180 degrees, thus changing the direction of flow from side facing to bottom, or vice versa.
The fitting is suspended from the top in order to create this simulation, and the rotation indexes into each position to hold it in place.
Giving an audience the ability to manipulate and operate your products is an experience they will take with them long after the event is over.
