Bespoke pneumatics products for use in commercial vehicles, by Kuhnke
Kuhnke
pneumatics are widely used on trucks, lorries, municipal machines, construction plant, agricultural equipment
and other mobile applications. These industries often have requirements over and above those
specifications for standard automation. Kuhnke has manufactured special pneumatic valves,
valve islands, cylinders and controls to meet these needs which may include:
- Wide variation in supply voltage.
- Adverse temperatures.
- Vibration & shock resistance.
- Integrated control systems such as CANopen.
- Compliance with standards and regulations such as ADR/GGVS, ISO 16750 e 1.
- System solutions including sensors, mouldings and pre-assembly.
- High IP ratings.
