VM/VMM-type Pinch Valves are used for interception of material flow in pneumatic conveying systems, or other pipelines. In addition, they can be installed as a locking device for silo filling pipes.
The body of the VM/VMM Pinch Valve is manufactured from aluminium alloy while the sleeves come in fabric-reinforced material. The sleeve support bushes are either made from aluminium alloy, hardened carbon steel, or 304/316 stainless steel.
VM and VMM-type Pinch Valves are used for interception of material flow in pneumatic conveying systems, or other pipelines. In addition, they can be installed as a locking device for silo filling pipes.

• Easy, quick sleeve and bush replacement
• Full bore-through passage without any pressure loss
• No material contact with the body
• Suitable for explosion proof plants (VM only)
• Lightweight in comparison with other makes and other types of valve
• Particularly low air consumption (VM only)

The VMX01N is an electro-pneumatic panel used to operate our VM pinch valves.

• It sends compressed air to inflate the sleeve and stop product flow.
• The solenoid valve controls the open/close action (available in 24VDC/AC, and 110VAC).
• A pressure regulator adjusts closing pressure.
• An optional pressure switch confirms valve closure (signal to PLC if needed).
• Compressed air supply (3–8 bar) goes into the control panel.
• Regulated output air goes to the pinch valve.

The system ensures fast and reliable shut-off, ideal for batching or material flow control.
