“I need it yesterday.” This idiom is a typical answer to a very common question in the manufacturing world: “When do you need this?”
This turn of phrase indicates urgency of the request, and often means that a product is already past its required delivery date. In instrumentation manufacturing, this sense of urgency is one that Dwyer knows all too well. We understand that our customers have a need that must be fulfilled by a set date for a variety of reasons. This can be the key to ensuring a project is completed on schedule, or to get production operational and bringing in a profit. It is for these reasons that Dwyer takes such pride in our 99.5% on-time delivery and 3 day average build time to order. Speed and urgency are part of our never-ending commitment to excellence.

When walking through the grocery store and picking up a bag of flour or sugar, you’ve probably never thought about the process that it took to get these items packaged. The small particle size of these materials requires specialized handling to ensure there is minimal damage or loss, which is called pneumatic conveying.
A pneumatic conveying system works by moving the material through an enclosed conveyor line using a combination of pressure differential and the flow of air (or another gas) from a blower or fan. Pneumatic conveying systems can be used to transport cement, starch, sugar, salt, polymers, plastic powder, and other powdered/granular bulk materials. The two most common forms of pneumatic conveying systems are dilute phase and dense phase.
