With over thirty years’ experience of system build, we know the importance of producing a Clean, high precision machined manifolds and components for the hydraulic industry. M4i offers a different approach then just manufacturing a manifold. It can design and manufacture from a circuit drawing and build and test a complete H I C System. We are also your final checker \ inspector before a production run giving customers peace of mind. It does this by running a simulation on its solid modelling CAD System. THERMAL DEBURRING All our manifolds are thermal deburred and camera inspection ready for plating or anodising. Manufacturing in the 12 months of trading we have produced over 2000 manifolds for leading valve manufacturers and system designers and hydraulic engineers. t | 01926 811395 (contact Mike Forster) MANIFOLDS FOR INDUSTRY Hydra Specma says: “We have been a member of the Specma group since 2009, 2 years ago Specma were acquired by the Hydra-Grene group. In 2020 our group will now be known as Hydra Specma Ltd, and we will become Hydra Specma Samwon Ltd, all other details remain unchanged. A video by our Group CEO’s is available in the link that follows:- https://www.hydraspecma.com/store/dk/da/cms/ dk-en/namechange As well as a change of name, we also have a number of new products, these include one-piece distribution blocks, which reduce the number of leak paths and are very competitively priced when compared to manifolds and the fitted adaptors. In addition, we have developed a range of elbow adaptors which maintain the same dimensions as the conventional forged elbows but with a curved bore, this gives reduced pressure losses of up to 40%, please contact us for more details.” w | www.hydraspecma.com/namechange CHANGE OF NAME  EMMEGI manufacturing coolers since 1975  Air blast coolers ranging from 1 lpm 0.01 kW/°C to 2000 lpm 12+ kW/°C  12/24v, 1 & 3 phase, hydraulic drive  Offline cooling units with pump motor sets  ATEX Zone 2  Fully marinised  Bespoke to customer design  Water coolers  State of the art sizing selection software, 3d CAD models  Ex-stock availability  Applications; hydraulic power units industrial / mobile / on/off highway equipment & machinery / agricultural / construction / presses / compactors / balers / crushers / recycling / lubrication systems / gearboxes / lifts / escalators / marine / winches / offshore oil & gas / aerospace / rail / renewables / power generation t | 01452 540130 e | sales@emmegi.co.uk w | www.emmegi.co.uk HEAT EXCHANGER PRODUCTS MATARA UK, a leading UK supplier of automation components, says it is preparing for industry 4.0 by bringing new electro-pneumatic automation components to the UK market during 2020.
