Virtually every hydraulic system requires some type of valve. Valves may control pressure, flow to an actuator, or quantity of flow permitted past a given point. Trends in the valve industry today include miniaturization of traditional designs and space-saving stackable valves. Compatibility with electronic controls means enhanced valve performance. Innovations include turning to plastics to cut weight while improving lubrication and corrosion resistance. Advanced ceramics are now being used for longer life and contamination resistance.

Proportional
The performance of proportional valves falls in the wide spectrum between on/off solenoid valves and electrohydraulic servovalves. The valves are termed proportional because output flow is not exactly linear in relation to input current. Despite their nonlinear response, the valves are an inexpensive way to control position, velocity, or force on equipment requiring high-speed response at high flow rates.
Solenoid
We offer an extensive range of solenoid valves. These are most frequently used to control elements in fluidics, Therefore, high reliability and long service life are important when choosing your solenoid valves. We have solenoids to isolate, release, dose, control, distribute or mix gases and fluids. All these solenoid valves are available to suit a variety of tube connections and fittings.
We can repair and re-machine most valves and have the ability to design and make any valve required |
