PHD's Impact Sensor Featured in H&P Magazine!

 

PHD's KG Impact Sensor and Programmer is gaining popularity with its simple integration and ability to shut down a system to prevent catastrophic machine failure. 
 
Richard Schneider of Pneumatics & Hydraulics Magazine writes about the KG Impact Sensor and how it keeps an eye on impact:  


"Almost every machine in motion involves impact. In some, the impact is so slight that it might be ignored. In others, proper lubrication, bumpers, or shock absorbers can control impact. But if something unexpectedly goes wrong or mechanisms wear on some machines, severe impact (or too little impact) can.." Click here to read the rest of the article.

 

Print Industry Processes? PHD has Your Solutions!

 

Are you associated with the printing industry? From press to finishing, PHD offers long life actuators for this industry. Whether it's Web Presses or Sheet Fed Presses - PHD has actuators for some of those hard to find or long lead OEM items. How about a replacement Impression Roll Actuator for your Manroland Rotoman Press? Perhaps you need a more robust Pusher Cylinder for your Stacker? PHD has these to offer and more!

 

PHD's Print brochure includes a process flow map of a potential printing company. Surrounding the diagram are descriptions of many of the actuators PHD has developed for specific needs. 

 

Featured are cover deck latches, log transfer grippers, and web tensioners that replace the OEM devices with high quality and value. How about a drop-in replacement for an Impression Roll Actuator for a Heidelberg CD Press, or a Back-to-Back Gate Cylinder?

 

The potential is limitless, and if you don't see what you need, let us know. Our Unique Solutions Engineering group can design a solution just for you!
