Getting a valve out of a vehicle isn’t too hard – it’s putting the new one in that requires more care. A typical commercial vehicle air braking system requires, at minimum, around a dozen core ...

Valves and actuators are critical in almost every aspect of power plant operations. They are used in a wide range of applications, including pollution control, feed water, cooling water, chemical ...

The article presents a numerical CFD simulation of a throttle-check valve used in an innovative control system for two pneumatic drives. This type of control is used in an innovative rehabilitation ...

Piezo elements are electromechanical transducers that convert mechanical forces (pressure, tensile stress or acceleration) into voltages. The inverse piezoelectric effect, precisely the opposite, ...

Filters, regulators, and lubricators (FRLs) are the unsung heroes of pneumatics. Although not as glamorous as the valves, manifolds, cylinders, and actuators that control machine motion, the FRLs play ...
