When Jim Wilden invented air-operated double-diaphragm (AODD) pump technology in 1955, there was only one diaphragm material option. Flash forward to today, and the Wilden menu of diaphragm designs and materials of construction has expanded to the point where there are options that can be dialed in for use in even the most specific or unique liquid-handling applications. So, how much has our offering of AODD diaphragm designs and materials expanded in the past 65+ years? Find out by reading our latest blog.

Automated pump monitoring systems bring a variety of benefits when used in biopharma liquid-processing operations. They can be used to optimize pump performance by giving the operator the ability to automatically control operational parameters while cutting back on the need for manual intervention. This control makes it easier to run simple process steps in biopharma applications more effectively, resulting in precise, consistent results without the need to dedicate time and effort to manual monitoring.

As renewable energies continue to grow more important in the global economy, the solar and photovoltaic industry face increasing demand.
