Understanding the Different Types of Pneumatic Valves
Pneumatic valves are a type of main component pneumatic systems use to control the amount of material, the rate, and the pressure at which a substance is moving through a pneumatic system. Pneumatic systems are entirely dependent on the force of the material that’s any system to transfer power. While pneumatic systems are commonly found in the power tools that … Read More
Pneumatic tubing buyer’s guide
Tubing is an integral part of a pneumatic system. It transmits pressured air between different parts of a pneumatic circuit. The air begins at the air compressor and conveyed to the actuators, cylinders, valves, and more through the tubing. So it is important to know what to look for when purchasing tubing for your company and project.

What is a Solenoid Valve?
A solenoid is one of the common kinds of electromagnetic valves. Solenoid valves are used to convert electrical energy to mechanical energy and are unique in appearance. As you can see in Figure 1, the body of the solenoid valve is the bottom part, while the top features a block, from which cables extend when the valve is installed That top part is the solenoid, which consists of fixing tendons, coils, and plungers. Solenoid valves use a steel tendon to become a magnet when electricity is supplied to the coil inside the solenoid.
What is a Speed Control Valve?
By: Justin Uhm A pneumatic flow control valve, commonly known as a speed controller, is a hydraulic safety device that protects pneumatic components, such as a cylinder, from damage. A pneumatic flow control valve includes orifices, which are used for controlling flow; these orifices can be used as a pressure-control device, and their intricate closed-loop electrohydraulic valves adjust depending on … Read More
