Sweeper brush positioning
Municipal vehicles place extreme demands on the pneumatic components in their systems due to the harsh environments in which they operate.
Proportional control is used to ensure the most consistent positioning of the pneumatic cylinders to achieve optimum cleaning performance. Other benefits of this proportional control are fast and accurate obstacle avoidance, needed when navigating a variety of road and pavement conditions.
Dumper control
With the ever-increasing need to improve driver safety, tipper controls are now often located away from the areas of danger where the load is being emptied. This frequently results in pneumatic control being located in and around the cab environment, ensuring that the driver is out of harm’s way. We have a varied range of valves that have been used in these applications for many years.
