Our total systems solutions bring special advantages for almost any automotive or tire plant application. ASCO Numatics delivers excellent performance everywhere from the output of the compressor through the powertrain gripper cylinder, and from the end effector vacuum cup picking up a roofline panel to the actuator working the tire extruder.
Automotive design engineers worldwide specify ASCO Numatics for applications including:
• Body in white （BIW） • Powertrain • Assembly material handling • Stamping • Paint
• Material handling • Feeds/conveyors • Tire building machine
ASCO Numatics provides the industry’s best value in pneumatic automation solutions for automotive and tire applications. Our technology leadership, proven reliability, and global support greatly reduce time, efforts, and costs for our users and OEM partners worldwide.
Numatics Valve Manifold Get precise fluid power from 3-way and 4-way models such as pilot valve manifolds designed to ISO 5599 and 15407 standards. Our vast array of valve sizes for every application includes lightweight and compact designs, plus some that eliminate internal wiring for greater manufacturing efficiency. Simple installation and setup reduce overall costs.
Numatics Air Preparation Our filters and versatile Sentronic proportional regulators offer highperformance yet cost-effective treatment of air quality and pressure in the plant or on the tire line. You also get unmatched flexibility, with very small to very large piping and port sizes, as well as the industry’s broadest selection of micron ratings.
ASCO Fluid Control Valves Our versatile, proven ASCO RedHat solenoid valves are ideal for applications from steam handling on tire curing presses to fluid dispensing or filling in trim chassis processes. One robust new piston operator valve specifically designed for demanding tire curing service offers a compact footprint; high performance; a long, reliable life; and easy maintenance.
Numatics Motion Control Our wide range of ISO- and NFPA-conforming actuators and linear guided cylinders, slides, grippers, and multi-motion products suits your most demanding designs. Bore size for bore size, some of our products can carry the heaviest loads in the industry. Our controller/motor/motion control systems put everything in one convenient, reliable package.
Numatics Pneumatic Actuators Select from the widest possible range of cylinders, many designed to NFPA, ISO, and CNOMO standards. Robust and durable, they still fit design and maintenance budgets. From lightweight bodies to large-diameter, heavy-duty models, apply them to everything from fixturing locations and assembly bolt checking to cutter actuation or tensioning and brake use on tire building machines.
Numatics Rodless Cylinders and Air Bellows Our guided and nonguided rodless cylinders furnish no-maintenance convenience and heavy-duty construction for demanding applications. Apply them everywhere from conveyors to lift assists to shuttles and sorters. Our high-force, small-footprint air bellows deliver superior vibration damping for injection molding and more.
Numatics Vacuum Products Choose from a broad selection of vacuum generators with the industry’s lowest air consumption. Also, arrays of suction cups, vacuum switches, and peripheral devices supply superior performance for material handling.
Numatics Accessories For efficient installation on automotive and tire equipment, our accessories range from pilot-operated check valves and tubing to flow controls to a wide choice of mufflers. Our popular fittings provide one versatile thread design for multiple thread types, cutting inventory — and overhead.
