filters, as disk drives expand beyond the per- sonal computer market and make their way into more consumer and office products. 

As disk drives become increasingly com- plex, so do their filtration needs. Our filters remove harmful particles and chemicals from the drive and help keep the drives operating reliably. 

In fiscal 2001, Donaldson manufactured more than 250 million disk drive filters. To keep up with our growth and provide the lat- est in state-of-the-art cleanroom facilities, we’re expanding our Wuxi, China, operation. We’ll continue to evolve and adapt our tech- nology to meet the needs of our customers. 

And you just never know where our disk drive filters will show up. Did you ever imag- ine in a sewing machine? In the near future, a disk drive in a sewing machine will allow the operator to log on to a Web site, down- load a pattern, store it and direct the machine to follow it. 

Although growth in the personal computer market has recently slowed, the demand for disk drives and our filters will continue to grow with new and future applications such as cell phones; game machines, like Microsoft’s XBox and Sony’s Playstation2; personal digital assistants and more.
