Custom Pneumatic and Electropneumatic Solutions Engineered for Your Application
When a standard product does not fully meet the requirements of your system, Bellofram Precision Controls can work directly with your engineering team to develop a custom pneumatic or electropneumatic solution. Customization can begin with established Bellofram pressure-control, signal-control, and actuation technologies and be tailored around the performance requirements of the application.
Bellofram custom engineering capabilities cover mechanical pressure regulators, air relays and volume boosters, I/P and E/P transducers, servo pressure controllers, and diaphragm air cylinders. Depending on the product type, application requirements can include supply pressure, outlet pressure, port size, flow capacity, signal range, accuracy, pressure ratio, cylinder stroke, equivalent bore diameter, and single- or double-acting operation.
By defining these requirements early in the design process, Bellofram can help evaluate whether an existing configuration can be adapted or whether a more specialized design is appropriate. The result is a pressure-control or pneumatic component developed around the actual operating needs, packaging constraints, and control requirements of the equipment.
Custom Solutions for Pressure Control and Pneumatic Actuation
Custom Pressure Regulators: Mechanical regulator solutions can be evaluated around supply pressure, required outlet pressure, port size, flow capacity, materials, mounting, and other application-specific pressure-control requirements.
Custom Air Relays and Volume Boosters: Relay and booster configurations can be developed around pneumatic pressure ratios, flow requirements, port sizes, supply pressure, output ranges, and response needs.
Custom Transducers and Servo Pressure Controllers: Electropneumatic solutions can be evaluated based on input signal, pressure range, accuracy, supply pressure, port size, flow, feedback, and control-system requirements.
Custom Diaphragm Air Cylinders: Cylinder configurations can be evaluated around stroke length, equivalent bore diameter, available pressure, required force, mounting, and single- or double-acting operation.
Start with Your Application Requirements
The most useful starting point for a custom pressure-control or pneumatic project is a clear definition of the application. Important information can include available supply pressure, desired output pressure, required flow, media, electrical signal, accuracy, stroke, force, dimensions, mounting constraints, operating environment, and any performance requirements that a standard product does not currently satisfy.
Use the custom solutions form below to provide the key specifications for your application. Bellofram Precision Controls can then review those requirements with your team and determine an appropriate path forward.
Custom Pneumatic Solutions FAQs
Does Bellofram Precision Controls offer custom pneumatic products?
Yes. Bellofram Precision Controls works directly with customers to engineer, design, and manufacture custom solutions when a standard product does not fully meet the requirements of an application.
What types of products can Bellofram customize?
Bellofram's custom solutions process supports mechanical pressure regulators, air relays and volume boosters, transducers, servo pressure controllers, and diaphragm air cylinders. The specific customization options depend on the product family and application requirements.
Can Bellofram develop a custom pressure regulator?
Yes. Custom pressure regulator projects can be evaluated based on factors such as maximum supply pressure, desired outlet pressure range, flow capacity, port size, mounting, media, materials, and other application requirements.
Can Bellofram customize an air relay or volume booster?
Yes. Bellofram can evaluate air relay and volume booster requirements involving supply pressure, port size, pressure ratio, flow capacity, output pressure range, and other pneumatic performance needs.
Can Bellofram develop a custom I/P or E/P transducer?
Bellofram can evaluate custom transducer and servo pressure controller applications based on requirements such as input signal, maximum supply pressure, output pressure range, port size, accuracy, flow, feedback, and control-system integration.
Can Bellofram customize diaphragm air cylinders?
Yes. Custom diaphragm air cylinder requirements can be evaluated using factors such as required stroke length, equivalent bore diameter, available air pressure, force, mounting constraints, and single- or double-acting operation.
What information should I provide for a custom pneumatic product?
Useful information includes supply pressure, desired output pressure, flow capacity, port size, media, electrical signal, required accuracy, mounting constraints, operating environment, available space, and any performance requirement that cannot be met by a standard configuration.
Does a custom solution always require a completely new product design?
Not necessarily. Depending on the application, an existing Bellofram product or platform may be adaptable through different pressure ranges, ports, signals, materials, mounting, flow characteristics, or other configuration changes. More specialized applications may require additional engineering or a dedicated design.
When should I consider a custom pressure-control solution?
A custom solution may be appropriate when standard products cannot meet required pressure, flow, accuracy, electrical interface, dimensions, mounting, materials, actuation, or operating-environment requirements.
How do I start a custom Bellofram project?
Start by completing the Bellofram Custom Solutions form with the product category and known application specifications. Providing information about the application, operating conditions, and required performance gives the Bellofram team a clearer basis for reviewing the project.
