Compressed air distribution systems

Compressed air generation and distribution costs energy, which is expensive. This is why companies should not cut corners when installing new and expanding existing systems and distribution, but should rely on modern, well-planned systems.

Hardly any production is conceivable without hydraulics or compressed air. Whether suction or compression, conveying or distribution - nothing works without pumps and compressors.

In order to be able to manufacture flexibly and in line with demand, it is not only production lines that need to be adaptable in the sense of plug and produce. The associated infrastructure for supplying the production modules must also be increasingly flexibly connected to the system.
Technical retailers are under increasing pressure. In order to be able to react quickly and flexibly to a large number of orders, they need full control over their data, processes and workflows. Wholesaler Hepa was also faced with the challenge of optimizing and automatically controlling processes such as quotation processing and invoicing.

Condensate treatment for compressed air...
Atlas Copco is launching a new oil/water separator for smaller compressed air installations: the OSS.

3i Handling Technology presents pneumatic rope balancers. The worker can use these specifically configurable balancers to support daily movement sequences without effort or noise.
Plug-in connections for spray dosing
The universally applicable spray heads from HPM Technologie apply fluids in fine doses "to the point". From machining to food production, there is a need for the precise application of cooling lubricants, alcoholic solutions, greases, oils and fluids of all kinds.
Vacuum technology from Schmalz
Schmalz is showcasing solutions for the digital factory at the Hannover Messe. The focus will be on networking individual vacuum components and complex gripping systems for portal and robot applications.

Changes at compressed air and pneumatics specialist Mader: Stefanie Kästle and Marco Jähnig were appointed to the management team at the end of 2017. A new company building is also to be built in Echterdingen. The move to the new building should be completed in summer 2018.
