ROTRON blowers agitate solutions, convey parts and products, perform vacuum hold-down and pick-up operations, dry and clean parts, and handle process and off gases. They generate clean, oil-free air by using one or two spinning, non-contact, oil-free impellers. What’s more, the blowers have fewer moving parts, which minimizes wear, tear, and downtime; and are an […]

Hoffman Estates, IL – A new brochure is available from Bosch Rexroth, detailing solutions for improving productivity, flexibility, reliability and profitability of machine tools. The free brochure can be downloaded here. The cross-technology brochure spans assembly, electric drives and controls, hydraulics, linear motion and pneumatics technology groups, showcasing the products and technology available to manufacturers […]

Normal, IL – The Illinois State University Department of Technology recently selected Bosch Rexroth to provide an industrial conveyor system and aluminum structural framing components for the university’s new Integrated Manufacturing Lab. Named as the Caterpillar Integrated Manufacturing Laboratory (CAT-IML), the advanced learning facility with robotic technology was made possible by a $1.2 million gift […]

Several major research projects are underway to enhance energy efficiency of hydraulic systems, and to use those efficient hydraulics to reduce the cost of operating variable-power systems. Some of these programs are leveraging the known strengths of hydraulics into new areas. Others aim to encourage engineers designing hydraulic systems to opt for power-saving features and […]

(Lexington, KY) – The new Series ICL pneumatic cylinders meet ISO 15552 standards and offer a clean design ideal for medium demanding, dust-off or light wash-down applications common place in secondary packaging/handling and other industrial applications.  The cylinders have hard anodized aluminum surfaces with stainless steel screws and piston rods.  Due to the standard magnetic […]

(TWINSBURG, OH) – Pepperl+Fuchs introduces Series F31 Valve Position Sensors a low profile inductive proximity sensors are just 1.25 in. tall and mount directly to the top plate of any standard pneumatic actuator with just two screws for highly accurate position indication.  They feature two electronic switching points integrated into one compact housing, and integral […]

New to the maritime industry is an updated line of rotating Active Heave Compensators (AHC). These systems increase workable hours at sea and make it safer to work under heavy weather conditions at increasingly lower depths. They also ensure accurate implementation of work in such environments. The AHC systems prevent unexpected and damaging reactions to […]
