A new engineering polymer, Polymethylene Oxide (POM), is being used by Emicol in water inlet valves for washing machines with the objective of improving the mechanical resistance of the product and providing dimensional stability.
Development of Emicol valves began in 1989 at Emicol, when initially the solenoid coil was bolted to the valve body. Currently, the product has gained a compact version, which instead of being screwed is threaded, ensuring maximum performance with reduced dimensions.
Following the trends and needs of the world's largest manufacturers, the membrane composition of these valves was improved, guaranteeing the product's performance even in water with chemical contamination and high temperature. As well as the RAST type terminals, where the product connection is made safely and easily through the “click” locking system, which supports the vibrations caused by the application.
The evolution in developments and improvements in water inlet valves, since 1989 at Emicol, are the result of investments in qualified professionals and in the use of software for tests and simulations, such as MoldFlow and Ansys CFD.
