Rethinking Beverage Production
Hydraulic valve technology
Hydraulic valve technology is designed to rethink valve actuation in the beverage and food industry. By using water hydraulics to operate the valves, the system achieves precise control with minimal energy use. As a complement to GEA’s already existing pneumatic valve technology, hydraulic valve technology supports production that is more efficient, flexible, and safe, offering an alternative to processes driven by compressed air.
“With the acquisition of Hydract, we are expanding our valve portfolio with water-hydraulic actuation technology that can significantly reduce the energy demand for operating our process valves. We will offer our customers both pneumatic and hydraulic actuation technology for our modular valve program – with uniform interfaces to engineering, automation and service.”
Sören de Boon, Senior Vice President of the Valves & Pumps Business Unit at GEA

Del cubo de ordeño al robot: 100 años de innovación agrícola en GEA
Desde hace más de 100 años, GEA desarrolla tecnologías para la ganadería lechera, desde las primeras máquinas de ordeño con cubos hasta los sistemas autónomos y conectados digitalmente. Estas innovaciones han transformado radicalmente la ganadería lechera: se ha pasado de rutinas que exigían mucha mano de obra a una mayor productividad, un mejor bienestar animal y unas operaciones diarias más eficientes.
