A lower density, better mechanical and insulating properties and significantly reduced raw material consumption. Given these advantages, it is no wonder that foamed plastics have taken the market by storm in recent years. They are mainly used as packaging components and for shock absorption, thermal insulation and soundproofing. However, the variance in blowing agents and […]
The new ball valves in the GEMÜ BB0F series from valve specialists GEMÜ cover a wide range of applications in the chemical industry thanks to their configuration and the available construction and actuator versions.

The low voltage AC drive market is currently undergoing a profound shift. Traditionally, drives have been treated and marketed as a standalone component, however current demands from machine builders and end-users have necessitated viewing drives more holistically as part of a whole system solution. More specifically, demand for more modular, compact machinery has increased innovation […]
Matching the right elastomer to an application is key to ensuring an o-ring’s optimal performance and mitigating premature failure. One critical factor to consider is resistance to process fluids. Different types of elastomers have differing resistance to various fluids, making material selection crucial to seal design. If the seal material is incompatible with a particular […]
