Cities are the engines of the global economy and the central organising forces of human society.
Just over half of the global population resides in urban areas today, and that figure is projected to rise to two-thirds by 2050. Urban life is a fact of life for a growing share of the world.
As the third decade of the 21st century unfolded, urban life came to a screeching... [Read More]

With no need for compressed air, early electric actuators can operate with less sound and less maintenance than the predominant pneumatic actuator.
Of course, the standard pneumatic option offered its own apparent benefits – performance in extreme temperatures, for example, and an elegant simplicity. As a result, the flow control industry has stubbornly clung to pneumatic... [Read More]
