Create a customized solution for your valve automation today. Whether you’re looking to update your current equipment or installing a brand-new valve that requires automation, compare these essential components for valve actuation and other automation solutions designed to streamline your process and improve your overall efficiency. Linear Vs. Rotary Actuators One of the most important […]

Actuators play a major role in flow control. Suboptimal performance in this area can have noticeable effects on overall efficiency, wear and tear, costs and safety. A reputable valve manufacturer can help you select the most appropriate product for your purposes. Globe Valve Operation Globe valves operate by linear motion and are used today for […]

Actuator performance plays a vital role in overall process optimization. To prevent unnecessary outages, excessive wear and tear, and other problems, boiler control should be accomplished through actuators manufactured to perform well in that particular setting. Often that setting involves excessive temperatures where standard actuators not designed for high temperatures have the potential to fail. […]

The United States economy relies heavily on the manufacturing industry. The production of commercial goods, exports and the abundance of jobs helps this country thrive. Last year, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported that over the last decade, growth in manufacturing productivity only increased an average of 0.7% versus an astounding 4.3% the previous decade. […]

Valve actuators are one of the most important parts of any mechanical system. In industries that rely on accuracy and streamlined processes, you can’t afford to have a control valve that malfunctions. When the flow of fluids or gases within your mechanical system is unreliable, it costs you more in reduced quality, equipment repairs and […]

Shopping for the right components for your automatic control processes means weighing the needs of the system in terms of performance against both the costs and the timing demands necessary to produce it to order. This means that when you are designing those systems, you need actuators with the precision to meet your quality control […]

An actuator is designed to control the flow of liquids, gases, steam through a mechanical system. The actuator device more often than not receives a control signal electronically that instructs a motor to power the valve or damper system to open, close or partially move based upon the flow control needs of that mechanical system.
