Advanced technology in pneumatic Part-turn-actuators for process valve actuation

摘要

In this new column for Valve World, Gunter Oxler from Festo Didactic GmbH & Co. KG will bring you his personal views on technical developments and achievements in the flow control industry. Use of pneumatic drives to operate process valves, e.g. ball & butterfly valves, is a state-of-the-art technology since many decades - especially in systems where high switching frequency, long lifetime compared with high product reliability is required.
