An Electric Pinch Valve is a type of control valve that uses a pinch mechanism to regulate the flow of materials, typically liquids or slurries, through a pipe. The valve consists of an elastomeric tube, which can be pinched by a mechanical actuator, usually powered by electricity. When the tube is pinched, the flow path is constricted, reducing or stopping the flow. The ability to control this pinch action with electrical signals makes the electric pinch valve an ideal choice for automated systems, offering both precision and reliability.

    Unlike traditional valve designs that rely on metal-to-metal contact, which can wear down over time, the Electric Pinch Valve utilizes a flexible rubber or elastomeric liner, preventing direct contact with the materials being transported. This design feature makes the electric pinch valve highly effective for handling abrasive, corrosive, or viscous substances, reducing wear and tear and increasing the longevity of the valve.
