Read this content to understand how to choose the ideal rotary joint for your industrial application!   In the industrial environment, efficiency and process optimization are essential to maintain competitiveness and ensure maximum productivity. Among the key components for managing fluids from stationary to rotating parts are rotary joints. These devices play a crucial role in a wide range of applications, ensuring the proper heating or cooling needed in industrial processes. Choosing the right Johnson-Fluiten rotary joint may seem complex, but by following this guide, you will be able to identify the most effective solution for your specific needs. In this guide we will provide two ways for you to be able to select the rotary joint most appropriate for your needs;   1 - Selection By Application Sectors

In the industrial environment, innovation and reliability are two fundamental pillars that lead to success and operational efficiency. From this perspective, Johnson-Fluiten rotary joints represent a true revolution, thanks to a distinctive feature that makes them unique on the market: the Quick Replacement Design (QRD). What makes QRD so special and essential for companies that want to get the most out of their industrial machines? The answer lies in the quality and innovation brought by the partnership with Fluiten spa, the acknowledged leader in the design and manufacture of mechanical seals.   -- CONTACT US -- ASK FOR A QUOTE --

For decades, Nordmeccanica, a company known worldwide for its laminating machines and metallisation machinery, has been using Johnson-Fluiten components to give its solutions the reliability its customers expect.   A long-lasting partnership based on the perfect match of Johnson-Fluiten components to Nordmeccanica's needs, the very low maintenance requirements and the supplier's willingness to meet every customer request.     For more than 45 years, Nordmeccanica, a company from Piacenza but present in more than 87 countries around the world, has been designing and manufacturing machinery for coating, laminating and metallisation of

Achieving optimal efficiency and enhancing production capacity are cross-industry objectives. Kadant Johnson's turbulator bars stand as a benchmark to modern technological advancements, refocusing the drying process of paper drying.   Enhancing Drying Uniformity and Capacity Modern paper mill operations will benefit from our Axial Dryer Bars; they are designed to elevate drying uniformity and increase the capacity of dryer-limited machines. These bars offer a great solution for boosting production or reducing operating steam pressures.   Precision Placement for Maximum Impact Strategically placed within the dryer, our bars generate resonant waves in the condensate film, creating turbulence even at high speeds. The result? A remarkable up to 50% increase in heat transfer efficiency compared

In the current business context, there are many manufacturers of fluid management components that target the machine builder market. But not many of them can claim to have a track record of success in designing customized solutions for specific applications that are truly capable of providing real and measurable benefits   How we achieve, with our rotary joints, a leading place among the most important manufacturers of production lines in the plastics and rubber industry? Let's find out the answer by analyzing the case of the development of the RX rotary joint with a "special head" for a major international customer that manufactures industrial plastic machinery; this project helped to simplify the customer's handling of components and ensured REAL & VERIFIED savings in time, energy and

The 20th anniversary of the company's foundation is an ideal occasion to remember the extraordinary professional and individual personality of Alberto Delfo Colombo, who sadly passed away a few months ago, and who was the real driving force behind the establishment and success of Johnson-Fluiten.   The Johnson-Fluiten project comes from the distinctive identities and features of the two companies that shaped it: Fluiten and Kadant Johnson. Fluiten is a historic Italian company representing excellence in the precision mechanical industry. Since 1961 it has produced Mechanical

In 20 years of work, Johnson-Fluiten, a leading company in the rotary joint industry, has proven the excellence of its solutions: the wide range of products, capable of satisfying the most demanding requirements in many different applications, is combined with the ability to manufacture rotary joints quickly and tailor-made to specific customer requirements.   The company is the result of a joint venture between two well established companies in the sector, Fluiten Italia Spa and Kadant Johnson: in this interview Fulvio Colombo, General Manager of Fluiten Italia Spa, and Mark Strik, Vice President for Europe of Kadant Johnson's Flow Control sector, describe the genesis, growth and prospects of the company twenty years after the foundation of Johnson-Fluiten.   A synergic collaboration

Discover the Modern Applications of OTS Rotary Unions Over-the-shaft (OTS) rotary unions are the backbone of fluid conveyance systems, seamlessly integrating with journals (shafts) that facilitate the flow of liquids into and out of rolls. As the journal rotates, the OTS rotary union seals around it, enabling the smooth transfer of fluids through the channels. These ingenious devices find frequent use in situations where fluid conveyance and the drive system coexist at the same end of a roll. Such applications require the journal to convey fluids while simultaneously transferring torque. Traditionally, you'll find OTS rotary unions in the metal industry, where water cooling is paramount. However, their versatility shines in any scenario where water, steam, or other fluid transfer is essential  

At MIAC - the International Paper Industry Exhibition - which will be held in Lucca from 11 to 13 October, Johnson-Fluiten teams up with Kadant to present products and solutions that have made the multinational group a benchmark in the industry.     Efficiency, Savings and Safety   These are the three pillars on which KADANT relies to achieve the core objective of its mission: the improvement of production processes in the paper industry. The target that the KADANT group aims at, with its participation in the MIAC, is not to present itself as a supplier of a wide range of products, but to provide targeted and customised technological solutions capable of achieving tangible and measurable results that bring a real
