Explore the future of pneumatics. Our blog offers expert insights, technical guides, and industry trends to help you innovate and optimize your automation systems.
ISO 8573-1 provides the definitive framework for specifying, measuring, and maintaining compressed air quality through nine distinct purity classes that directly correlate to your production requirements and equipment longevity.
Troubleshooting failing pneumatic solenoid valves involves systematic electrical testing, air flow verification, mechanical inspection, and performance analysis to identify root causes including coil failures, contamination buildup, mechanical wear, and electrical connection problems for efficient repair and prevention strategies.
High-flow solenoid valves for automotive assembly lines feature enlarged port sizes, optimized internal flow paths, rapid switching capabilities, and flow rates exceeding 2000 L/min to enable sub-second cycle times, reduce actuator sizes, minimize air consumption, and maximize production throughput in demanding manufacturing environments.
3/2 way solenoid valves control single-acting cylinders and simple on/off applications with three ports and two positions, while 5/2 way valves manage double-acting cylinders with five ports and two positions, offering different capabilities for pressure supply, exhaust control, and actuator management in pneumatic systems.
NAMUR standard solenoid valves are specialized pneumatic control devices designed to meet strict German engineering standards (VDI/VDE 3845) for process automation applications, offering superior reliability, standardized mounting, and enhanced safety features compared to conventional solenoid valves.
