Beswick Engineering announces new miniature pinch valve
Beswick miniature pinch valves are now available for 1/8-in. OD and 1/4-in. OD tubing. The PV series miniature pinch valve is designed to control fluid when it is advantageous to avoid fluid contact with mechanical components and elastomeric seals. Pinch valves achieve fluid control by clamping down on the outside diameter of the tubing in […]
Spartan Scientific releases innovative 2-way solenoid valve
Spartan Scientific releases a newly engineered addition to its solenoid valve lineup. Manufactured in an all-brass form, the series 6700 provides superior flow rate for typical applications of two-way control of inert gasses, water, and compatible fluids. The series 6700 diaphragm valve provides peace of mind with its virtually indestructible build when using clean media […]
Pneumatic system upgrade preserves collegiate tradition
SMC recently updated the pneumatic system on the Boilermaker Special VII, the official mascot of Purdue University. According to the Reamer Club that cares for the train, the Boilermaker Special is the world’s largest, fastest, heaviest, and loudest collegiate mascot. Some of these accolades can be attributed to the train’s extensive pneumatic system, which controls […]
