AutomationDirectβs NITRA pneumatic product line now includes D-Series heavy-duty air cylinders suitable for applications where abusive conditions are a concern.
Components
Hygienically safe pneumatic drives suitable for food/beverage use
Self-adjusting cushioning PPS from Festo Corp. means an end to time consuming adjustments when setting the correct cushioning with hygienic pneumatic cylinders.
Proper design requires knowledge of valve types
Valves used in the medical device industry are designed with precise specifications so they are compatible with the requirements of the applications. Meanwhile, valves used in factory automation are designed to work within specific safety regulations. Every project has unique requirements and choosing the best pneumatic valve design for your application will provide optimum results.
New line of stainless steel shock absorbers from Ace Controls
ACE Controls has introduced its new line of V4A high-quality stainless steel industrial shock absorbers for long life applications.
Air Engineering to manufacture 1.12-in. bore heavy-duty cylinders
Air Engineering and Supply announced the manufacture and national distribution of the widely used 1.12-in. bore air cylinder, with up to 20-in. standard stroke with longer strokes available upon request.
MultiFLOW blowgun features unique flow control
When CEJN engineers set out to design an all-new, all-powerful blowgun, they first interviewed end-users to identify its job responsibilities. They learned that their new design would need to offer unique flow and flow control, as well as be equipped with nozzle adjustments that would make it a versatile tool for a variety of tasks.
Clippard launches second phase of 3D product catalog
Clippard Instrument Laboratory announced the launching of its expanded 3D catalog powered by TraceParts. This new phase includes their extensive electronic and control valve miniature pneumatic lines.
New valve catalog from Humphrey Products
Humphrey Products has released its newest Valve Catalog, HKV-7. The new catalog provides basic decision-making information about our broad range of valve products. Within each of the eight sections, there are pages devoted to valve fundamentals, principles and background information.
Valve manifold has world’s smallest footprint
Festo has announced the development of the high density/small footprint VTOC pilot gas valve manifold. This is the highest density manifoldβwith up to 48 valvesβfor its footprint in the world, because the manifold features two 3/2-way valves on each valve position and valve widths of only 0.393 in.
Pilot-operated check valves
Pneumadyneβs new pilot-operated check valves are suitable for reliably holding an actuator position in a variety of applications. They feature a ΒΌ or 1/8 NPT output port that mounts directly on a cylinder, minimizing space requirements and easing installation.
