In pneumatic systems, working pressure is one of the most underestimated factors influencing PU tube service life. Many air leaks, sudden tube failures, or frequent replacements are not caused by poor material quality, but by long-term operation close to or beyond the tube’s pressure limit.

In automated handling systems, the choice between a vacuum pump and a vacuum generator is rarely a purely technical debate. It affects energy consumption, system layout, response speed, maintenance cost, and even how reliably a production line can run over multiple shifts.
In automated handling systems, a vacuum filter is rarely the most expensive component, yet it often determines the service life of the entire vacuum circuit. In applications using suction cups to pick and place workpieces, fine dust, powder, paper fibers or machining residues are easily drawn into the airflow.

Among global suppliers, SMC vacuum generator solutions are widely recognized for their modularity and reliability. Understanding how these devices work—and how different series such as ZU, ZH, and EV are applied—helps engineers, buyers, and distributors make decisions that balance performance, energy use, and long-term system stability.
In industrial automation, “vacuum” is one of those terms that sounds simple but is often misunderstood in practice. Many users associate vacuum with the idea of “nothingness,” yet in reality, absolute vacuum does not exist in industrial applications.

Polyethylene tubing is one of the most widely used plastic tubing types in industrial, pneumatic, water, and general fluid-handling systems. From 1/4 PE tubing in automation equipment to 1 inch polyethylene tubing for water distribution, PE appears everywhere.
In automated equipment, motion rarely happens in straight lines only. Rotary tables, indexing mechanisms, winding machines, robotic arms, and packaging equipment all require continuous rotation while maintaining a stable air supply.

In modern pneumatic design, space is no longer a luxury. Control cabinets are slimmer, modular machines integrate more functions into smaller footprints, and equipment builders are constantly asked to “fit more into less.”
From a mechanical perspective, internal pressure always tries to expand a tube outward. The thicker the wall, the more material is available to resist that force. This is why, across industries, the rule of thumb holds true: greater wall thickness equals higher pressure capacity, assuming the same material and diameter.
Pneumatic push in fitting is one of the commonly used pneumatic fittings in pneumatic systems, also known as quick connect or push in fittings, aimed at achieving fast and high sealing between pipelines and pneumatic equipment.
