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.”
