SPOTLIGHT UNIFLEX, a global market leader of high-quality crimpers for hydraulic hoses, says because utmost precision is vital in the production and repair of hose assemblies, it offers a wide range of accessories and work can be a lot easier when the different cutting machines for hydraulic hoses of all size categories are used. Especially easy is the precise cutting of smaller hoses up to a diameter of 1 1 ⁄ 4 “with the cutting machine EM 1, which has been re-engineered in some important details, and the variant EM 1S. The mobile cutting machines which are, in comparison with the traditional circular cutters, just slightly bigger and negligibly heavier are fixed at the workplace, i.e. the “cutting table“, by means of just two screws fast and safely. t | +49 (0) 6039/9171-211 e | sayan.mukherjee@uniflex.de w | www.uniflex.de CLEAN, SAFE, SOLID & MOBILE KINETROL reports it has extended its product range with the addition of the Model 60 and says the new unit increases the company’s torque output coverage to over 40,000 Nm (350,000 lbf.in ) and broadens Kinetrol’s applications to include 16” ball valves and 2m butterfly valves. The company says the single vane actuator provides direct drive rotary control with the following advantages: - the one moving part construction facilitates accurate modulation and increases life expectancy (guaranteed up to 2 million operations) - space saving/energy absorbent side plates reduce compressed air/energy consumption and facilitate fast operation - a new end-stop design further extends the actuator’s life. t | 01252 733838 e | sales@kinetrol.com w | www.kinetrol.com PRODUCT RANGE EXTENDED GENAIR is a company that rents air compressors and desiccant dryers to industry throughout the UK and beyond.

Over the past 12 months, the company has assisted dozens of customers in manufacturing a better hydraulic measurement or control solution by improving product fit, form or function to suit specific needs. Webtec says it makes the route to product customisation straightforward and in many instances, the company is able to take the best-fit standard product and customise it to provide optimum performance. As a result, hydraulic system designers no longer have to compromise on machine functionality. Some of the bespoke products developed recently by Webtec have remained ‘specials’ for one customer, while others have been added to the company’s range as standard items. w | www.webtec.com RISE IN CUSTOM PRODUCTS SUTO iTEC has announced that its S600 portable compressed air purity analyser has been upgraded with a new particle sensor to provide particle measurement fully in line with the requirements of ISO 8573-4. The S600 measures dewpoint from - 100ºC and oil vapour from 0.003mg/m 3 in addition to particles from 0.1µm. The company says the unit will be operating live at Air-Tech 2020 on stand AF104 and visitors can see how easy it is to use and observe the practical benefits of this highly portable analyser to deliver accurate measurements quickly. The particle sensor is also available as a standalone unit in the S132 model with touchscreen display and integral datalogger and there is also a wall mounted version of the S600, the S601 for continuous monitoring. e | sales@measuremonitorcontrol.com w | www.measuremonitorcontrol.com COMPRESSED AIR QUALITY ANALYSIS The PSW4 is a multi-coupling series realised by DNP, which is interchangeable with its main competitors, it is mainly used on frontal loaders applications. Compared to its competitors, DNP says its PSW4 offers the advantage of having a lever system which allows the user to adjust it according to the needed layout. The side of the handle and of the pin-lock can in fact be modified with standard tools by the same user. The couplings of the mobile part have an integrated decompression system, which allows the connection of the two semi- halves even in presence of residual pressure on the male side. t | +39 039 877451 e | info@dnp.it w | www.dnp.it PSW4: A NEW MULTI-CONNECTION SYSTEM As a commercial fluid specialist, APPLIED PUMPS says it has a complete programme of pumps and related fluid equipment: Screw Pumps & Gear Pumps for FUELS & OILS Centrifugal Pumps for WATER, EFFLUENT, CHEMICALS, FUELS..
