Akron's Biomedical Corridor and Murdock Industrial

Posted on the Akron Beacon Journal's website, Ohio.com, on Saturday was an article about how Akron's biomedical corridor is beginning to take shape. Boundaries have been drawn on Akron's map to finally outline the biomedical corridor as well as new biomedical zoning and incentive areas to encourage growth of companies focusing their efforts in the biomedical industry. The full article can be read here.

Akron's biomedical corridor literally encompasses the 106 year history of Murdock Industrial. Our original location, when we were known as the M.F. Murdock Company, was at 310 Water St. and was torn down in 2000 to make way for the Considine Professional Building between Akron Children's Hospital and Canal Park.

Our current location, 553 Carroll St., is a block east of Route 8 on the opposite side from the University of Akron and just a few blocks south of Summa's Akron City Hospital. We are very proud to serve all three of Akron's hospitals, supplying them what they need when they need it to keep them and this city running the way it should.

In 2009 we made it a point to begin heavily marketing Tygon tubing, made right here in Akron at Saint-Gobain's Tygon manufacturing plant on Gilchrist Rd. Tygon is a brand of flexible tubing that has become a standard for many laboratory, pharmaceutical, surgical and biomedical applications, among others.

Murdock Industrial has been committed to Akron for over a century now and we're very excited to see what happens in the city's future and with the development of the biomedical corridor!

Eaton Aeroquip ET1280 Crimper 3D Video

This video is a 3D representation of the Eaton Aeroquip ET1280 crimper in action. It is used to crimp Aeroquip fittings onto the ends of the Aeroquip MatchMate line of hose:

• Aeroquip GH663
• Aeroquip GH793
• Aeroquip GH781

The crimper die is installed and the crimper is set to specifications. After placing the fitting onto the end of the hose they are both inserted into the die and ready to be crimped together. The die places even pressure around the fitting, and the cutaway shot shows how the fitting is securely crimped onto the hose. A brand new Aeroquip hose assembly has been created and is ready for work!
