It’s a simple fact. Make a job easier to do and you can do it better, faster and for longer. The ‘Tigon’ spring balancer range helps improve productivity by keeping tools stored out of the way when not in use on workstations, assembly lines and various shop floor activities. In addition the power tools themselves are safeguarded from accidentally being dropped or damaged, not forgetting the additional risk to the workforce and other products or equipment.

Another benefit is that whilst the tool is in use, the majority of the weight is suspended by the balancer making handling and movement almost effortless. This reduces operator fatigue and again benefits efficiency and productivity levels.

The cable balancer range covers 0.5 to 70kg tool capacity with a maximum cable length of 2 metres. The hose reel range (which incorporates the tools air supply as well as acting as the suspension cable) covers 0.5 to 5kg tool capacity with a 1.3 metre hose length.

The flow rate could be increased by remarkable 64% compared to the previous model. This new increased flow rate sets a new milestone compared to comparable couplers in the market. A higher flow rate means higher productivity – hydraulic cylinders will move faster, die-casts will be cooled earlier. As a consequence the production costs are decreased.

Thanks to the newly designed shape of the valve head, the valve returns automatically and smoothly to its original position when disconnected. This structure enhances safety by sealing the flow passage of individual sockets and plugs.

SP-A couplers can be used in various applications up to a pressure of 75 bar. The maximum size is 1”. All versions are made in PT female thread. Materials: steel, brass, stainless steel SUS 304. Beside this new model this famous manufacturer offers a broad range of couplers for nearly every application.

For this procedure the quick connecting couplers of this famous japanese manucturer are worldwide well approved. Under the brand PCV and SP-V these couplers can be found in many production lines. The connection to the tube is executed by a simple, but very effective lever system (just pressing the lever down), the connection to the filling system is managed by high vacuum resistant couplers. The range of the tube couplers reaches from tube outer diameter 4mm up to 15,88mm. Different packings materials are available to meet nearly every usage condition. The couplers are made by brass or by stainless steel.

Air-blowers are commonly used in wastewater treatment systems, aquatic & pond applications as well as sulphur scrubbing on biogas applications. The “linear shuttle” technology removes the need for troublesome diaphragms and so offers the benefit of much longer lifetimes. Their existing product range offered air flow of 7,2 m³/h at 180mbar (normally 1.8 meter water depth ), whilst their new big brother gives a superior 12m³/h airflow at 200mbar (normally 2 meters water depth). Therefore the new LAM-200 can be used in larger plants that historically were unable to take advantage of Nitto Kohki’s superior “linear shuttle” technology.

The LAM is also an interesting alternative to rotary disc and by-pass channel pumps. With a power consumption of only 220W and whisper-quiet 48dB(A) noise, the new model is an ecological and quiet solution.

Two positions of the operating lever prevent from accidental detachment. The first position of the operating lever just disconnects the couplers, while the second stage itself disconnects the two plates. A contribution to the safetyness in the working surrounding. A high flow rate, similar to that of the popular SP-A type coupler, speeds up the productivity. As a consequence the production costs are decreased. 13 standard types of MAM coupler type, from 4 ports up to 12 ports, are available. Special versions are made on request.

The optimal medium is water or air, the applied pressure in the lines should not exceed 15 bar. Applications like die-castings, moldings, welding equipments, assembly lines or robotics are just an essence of the wide variety of possible usages

Compared with conventional multi couplers in the market the flow rate is nearly double which means that a smaller coupler type can be used. This means that the size of the required plates is reduced. MALC coupler realizes a 2mm axial eccentricity allowance while conventional couplers just allow 0,6mm. The user has more space and tolerance in connecting the two plates, vibrations or other disturbing influences do not stop the connecting process.

The special structure of the valves prevent spill out of fluid and admixture of air into the fluid line. Only one type of plate is required; the distance between sockets and plug is for every size the same. Increased productivity, reduced production costs and higher working safety are just some features of this high quality coupler series.

Available in 32 different standard types these couplers are designed for medium and high pressure applications up to 210 bar. Special versions on request. Water, air or hydraulic oil are optimal fluids. Applications like die-castings, moldings, leakage test equipments, assembly lines or robotics are just an essence of the wide variety of possible usages. Beside these new models this famous manufacturer offers a broad range of couplers for nearly every application.

The cutting tips remove edges at mild steel to a maximum length of 7mm, at stainless steel maximum 3mm. At circular working the maximum working length is 4mm. The chamfer angle can be adjusted between 15° and 45°. A dust box collects the separated parts.As an option a series of cutting tips for different sizes is available.

Applications are various, reaching from the shipbuilding industry to the machinery building industry and to the production of containers.
