ACCURATE FLOW CONTROL VALVE

A pneumatic accurate flow control valve is a device used to precisely regulate the flow rate of compressed air in a pneumatic system. Key Characteristics Function: It works by altering the size of the orifice (opening) through which the air passes, which directly controls the speed of an actuator (like a cylinder) or other pneumatic components. Accuracy: Unlike simple restriction fittings, these valves are designed for fine-tuning and maintaining a specific, often constant, flow rate despite minor pressure variations. Mechanism: They typically use a micrometer adjustment or a very sensitive needle/tapered stem to provide precise and repeatable control over the airflow. Application: They are essential in applications requiring smooth, consistent, and predictable motion control, such as robotics, automated assembly, and packaging machinery.
