Pinch Valves

Miniature Proportional Pinch Valves

The new range of Miniature Proportional Pinch valves meets today's demanding high-resolution flow control challenges, whereby separation between fluid and control valve is paramount. Previously, this could only be accomplished with a manually operated control valve. The newly developed Resolution Air Pinch Valve series has been engineered to meet the needs of the most challenging precision flow applications in industries such as bio-chemical, food and beverage, and medical.

We offer high-performance media separated proprtional controlled pinch valves. These are tailored for medical, sanitary and non-contact applications. These valves ensure high resolution and precise media separated flow control.

MPPV and PPV Advantages

A primary benefit of proportional pinch valves is automating the metering process of liquids and gases in open and closed loop control systems. Additionally PPV's are also being utilised in applications requiring simple ON/OFF control because they generate significantly higher pinch forces(4x-8x) compared to a traditional solenoid pinch valve. As a result, our valves are quickly replacing traditional low-force solenoid pinch valves in many markets, including medical device and life sciences, where precise sanitary fluid metering is critical to the application.

Proportional Pinch Valves with Position Sensing (MPPV-PS-Series)

MPPV-PS Position Sensor Series. This advanced feature integrates a compact position sensor, offering precise linear position feedback for critical fluid handling applications. The new technology replaces traditional home sensors and encoder combinations, providing a streamlined solution with numerous benefits for industries requiring precision, reliability, and continuous position feedback. With a 4-20 mA output signal, integrating real-time position feedback into your control system is straightforward, eliminating the complex setup and maintenance associated with traditional home sensors and encoders.

Miniature Proportional Pinch Valve-IP65 Rated Series (MPPV-EN-Series)

The MPPV-EN series provides protection against dust and water jet ingress. The addition of a IP65 rated enclosure offers further value for the MPPV technology in sanitary processes. The MPPV-EN series enclosure means barriers associated with environmental conditions are eliminated. This IP65-rated valve makes the advantages of the MPPV design attainable for a wider range of systems and applications. The incorporation of robust M12 connector technology streamlines installation and wiring, adding to MPPV-EN series advantages.

MPPV-PS-EN Miniature Proportional Pinch Valve (MPPV-PS-EN-Series)

MPPV-PS-EN series combines both the compact position sensor, precise linear feedback with an IP65 rated enclosure. Real-time data on valve position ensures that you can track and adjust performance instantly, leading to higher accuracy and control. One of the key innovations is the ability to retain position data even in the event of a power loss, removing the need for valve rehoming and ensuring smooth, uninterrupted operation.

Easy Pinch Controller (EP-1)

The (EP-1) is a compact motion control system combining a high-performance stepper motor driver, an intelligent controller with a full-colour touch screen HMI. Purpose-built to optimise the performance of our patented Proportional Pinch Valves, the EP-1 enables fast deployment, simplified validation, and consistent performance. It’s dual mode design supports both 4-20 mA analog as well as digital on/off control. This all-in-one architecture simplifies system design, reduces wiring complexity, and improves reliability in automation environments. In addition, the EP-1 enables single-use system designers to simplify motion control, accelerate equipment deployment, and maintain consistent performance, while supporting the flexibility that disposable bioprocessing demands.

Key Benefits

Sterile and efficient:

Our medical pinch valves are designed to pinch a fluid-filled tube to regulate the flow of a liquid or gas, without the fluid ever touching the valve.
This ensures a sterile environment, as only the tube needs to be replaced. This enhances efficiency, cost and productivity by eliminating the need for timely and costly filter changes.

Versatile and Reliable:

With self-cleaning, non-clogging capabilities and full-bore design. Our pinch valves offer a high-end bespoke solution to meet the unique requirements of your products.
They are an ideal replacement for traditional low-force solenoid pinch valves in markets such as medical and life sciences. Where precise fluid metering and leak-tight metering are critical.

Innovative Engineering:

Our highly experienced team is committed to delivering advanced pinch valve solutions that provide superior performance and reliabilty in critical applications.
