1. Force-Limited Gripping in Electronics Assembly
Used as the primary air preparation unit for pick-and-place robots handling delicate components like PCBs or smartphone screens. The regulator restricts the output pressure to a maximum of 7 bar, preventing operators from accidentally increasing the pressure to levels that would cause pneumatic grippers to crush sensitive parts.
Problem SolvedPrevents product damage (crushed components) caused by over-pressurized grippers and protects miniature solenoid valves from seizing due to particulate contamination.

2. Main Air Supply for High-Speed Carton Erectors
Installed at the air inlet of secondary packaging machines to filter paper dust and regulate pressure for folding cylinders. The high flow rate of 5600 l/min supports the rapid cycle times required for folding and taping boxes without pressure drops that could cause machine jams.
Problem SolvedEliminates valve clogging caused by ambient paper dust (via 5 µm filter) and ensures consistent actuation speed during high-demand cycles (via high flow capacity).

3. Pilot Air Preparation for Valve Terminals
protects complex valve manifolds (e.g., Festo CPX/MPA) inside control cabinets. The 5 µm filter removes fine compressor rust and particles that can block tiny pilot channels (0.5-1.0 mm), while the reduced pressure range (up to 7 bar) provides finer control resolution for setting the optimal pilot pressure (typically 4-6 bar).
Problem SolvedReduces downtime associated with 'stuck' spool valves and pilot failures caused by dirty air supply or pressure fluctuations from the main plant ring main.
