On 20 January 1937, the Lamson Engineering Company Ltd was incorporated as a merger of the Lamson Store Service Co Ltd and Lamson Pneumatic Tube Co Ltd. In 1973, the firm was promoting its "Rallypost" system with PVC track and battery-operated carriers that could carry up to 6 kg. [4] This was designed as an office document carrier.
A pneumatic tube system in Washington, D.C., in 1943. Pneumatic tubes (or capsule pipelines, also known as pneumatic tube transport or PTT) are systems that propel cylindrical containers through networks of tubes by compressed air or by partial vacuum. They are used for transporting solid objects, as opposed to conventional pipelines which ...
In 1799, George Medhurst of London conceived of and patented an atmospheric railway that could convey people or cargo through pressurized or evacuated tubes. The early atmospheric railways and pneumatic tube transport systems (such as the Dalkey Atmospheric Railway) relied on steam power for propulsion.
The company manufactures cylinders, [4] valves, valve systems, [5] as well as units for compressed air preparation and is increasingly focusing on electronic networking of system parts. Vacuum technology for non-contact transport systems, such as those used in the food industry [ 6 ] is an additional division.
An automated vacuum waste collection system, also known as pneumatic refuse collection, or automated vacuum collection (AVAC), transports waste at high speeds through underground pneumatic tubes to a collection station where the waste is compacted and sealed in containers. Full containers are transported away to be emptied.
They also made cable systems and pneumatic tube systems. [4] Sturtevants Sturtevants of Boston, Massachusetts was an offshoot of an American company. They purchased part of Reid Brothers around the early 1920s and the pneumatic tube business of Cooke, Troughton and Simms. In 1949 the part that handled pneumatic tubes was acquired by Lamsons. [5]
In pipeline transport systems, the efficient and safe movement of fluids—whether gas, oil, water, or chemicals—relies on effective fluid control mechanisms. These mechanisms help regulate the flow, pressure, and direction of the fluids within the pipeline, preventing blockages, backflows, and ensuring smooth transportation over long distances.
