How do I pressure test my composite overwrapped pressure vessels or COPV? Can a Micropac® PTR-A programmable hydrostatic pressure cycle tester provide effective testing at low cost? Composites have been a massive growth area in the last few decades. Some applications are designing and manufacturing massively strong structures at a low mass that was [...]
Why are composites the future for so many pressure vessels? Composite pressure vessels can offer such enormous benefits over metallic pressure vessels. There is some serious engineering in them. Why are composites so successful for the right application? Think composite and focus on strength, low mass and freedom from corrosion. Composites have brought to [...]
Why use a pneumatic air driven pump on your hydraulics? Why do we sell air driven pumps? They are simply a great choice in the right application. We have manufactured our Micropac hand pumps for over 40 years and sell a lot of air driven pumps where they offer features that our manual pumps [...]
