Dear Reader.
Welcome to our February edition of e-Matters, the electronic newsletter from SMC the world leaders in pneumatic technology.
This month´s newsletter is primarily focused on the strong, inextricable, link between Measurement and Control.
Just like night and day, these two words go hand-in-hand.
You simply cannot have control without measurement and without accurate measurement you cannot detect any irregularities and ultimately any control is lost.
An excellent example of this link can easily be demonstrated by looking a something as simple as dieting - which many people are currently undertaking in this post Christmas/New Year period. You need to check (measure) your weight in order to introduce a weight loss plan (control) and you constantly measure and control the number of calories you consume and finally you check your weekly/monthly progress!
Whilst this, tongue-in-cheek, non-engineering example of measurement and control is rather simplistic, thanks to our R&D engineers and their focus of all Pressure and Flow related matters we now have one of the most comprehensive ranges of Pressure and Flow components on the market.
To check out our current ranges simply scroll down below and select your area of interest. Click on the underlined URL or cut and paste the address directly into your browser and all the key information on your selected SMC topic will appear directly on your screen -it´s as easy as that!
We hope that you find this newsletter of interest and look forward to your continued readership.
Yours sincerely

Finally, to end this edition of e-Matters on the same topic as our introduction - control. Did you know that by carrying out checks of your air lines you can immediately see where air loss is occurring in your systems?
By keeping any air loss to a minimum, not only will your hard working compressors feel less of the strain, but your energy bills will fall dramatically!
   
Simply by installing a Digital Flow Switch at the beginning of each branch pipe, you can monitor the air flow and quickly spot any abnormalities such as clogged pipes etc.

If you’re interested in seeing how further energy savings can be made, please check out our new
Energy Saving Software. Just follow the simple step-by-step instructions to find the best tips on energy conservation, including information on all our energy saving products and their applications.
