A new range of miniature positive displacement pumps, which feature an innovative radial piston design that allows for self-priming at altitude and reduces cavitation, has been introduced by miniature component specialist Lee Products. The 200 Series pumps are driven by a powerful brushless DC motor (more...)

Conducting an effective and up-to-date wastewater treatment service is challenging. When a plant in the Netherlands needed to renovate its systems in one of its post-sedimentation tanks, it needed geared motors that were capable of providing a durable and submersible solution. Delfluent Services (more...)

Hostile working environments where strong vibrations, abrasions and welding sparks are the norm, require heavy duty, robust fittings. The Parkair brass nickel-plated push-in fittings offer such features, being widely used in the robotics, automotive welding, heavy industry, railway, compressed air (more...)

Ian Webster of Burkert looks at how two top spec flow measurement technologies match up: coriolis flowmeters and surface acoustic wave flowmeters. Flow measurement of liquids is an essential requirement for the control of many manufacturing processes, since accurate control improves efficiency and (more...)
