Midland Industrial Designers Ltd

Midland Industrial Designers (MID), who celebrated 50 years in business in 2009, will have the market-leading TWA rotary valve on display. Originally made from ni-hard, the valve now comes with an alumina ceramic lined option for optimum longevity. Combined with a maintenance-free mechanical sealing system, the valve offers maximum performance with minimum maintenance.

Also on display will be cartridge mechanical shaft seals, developed for use on screw conveyors, mixers and other equipment handling abrasive powders. Engineered from the same components as the highly reliable rotary valve seals, the cartridge seal is simple to fit, requires no maintenance and prevents leaks from rotating shafts.

MID will also be promoting their recently announced worldwide distribution agreement with Claudius Peters, Germany. Their worldwide network will handle the sales and service of the TWA rotary valve, concentrating on abrasive applications such as the cement, power generation and mineral industries.
