Expanded air poppet valve series
CUMSA has added two new sizes of air poppet valves to its VA- Air Valve series for plastic injection moulds. The new diameter sizes include a 3-mm air poppet and a ∞” air poppet specifically developed for the North American market. The new dimensions enable more user options so the air poppets can be applied in various types of moulds. In addition, multiple units can be installed in one mould. Air poppet valves are designed to break vacuums which are created when moulding thin-walled or deep-drawn parts. The VA assists in removing air formed inside a mould cavity. Air poppets are also engineered to assist with moulded part ejection to prevent the moulded part from sticking to the mould.
Richter has achieved a significant advancement: all common product lines such as ball valves, control valves, sight glasses, safety valves, check valves, manual control valves, sampling valves and magnetic coupling pumps are now available in conductive PFA and FDA-compliant versions. Newly added are the butterfly valves,
Richter Chemie-Technik sets new standards
which also meet these high standards. This development is particularly important for the pharmaceutical and chemical industries as it ensures the highest safety and purity standards. This closes a gap in the product portfolio.
Sanhua’ s launches EBVC Series electric three-way ball valve
