1 Introduction In industrial fluid control systems, selecting the right type of valve is critical for ensuring safety, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness. Among the many types of valves, two stand out for their versatility and popularity — the Plug Valve and the Butterfly Valve. While both are quarter-turn valves, their design, operation, and performance differ greatly. […]

1 Introduction   In industrial flow control, understanding the difference between a Plug Valve and a Check Valve is essential for system efficiency and safety. Plug Valves provide precise control, while Check Valves ensure automatic protection against backflow.At LIXIN, we combine decades of engineering expertise with advanced manufacturing to deliver reliable solutions, including the highly […]

1 Introduction   In industrial flow control, choosing the right valve determines system performance, reliability, and long-term cost. Two commonly compared types are the Knife Gate Valve and the Slide Gate Valve. Although they share similar names, their applications differ significantly. At LIXIN, we specialize in high-quality valve solutions—including the LIXIN Knife Gate Valve—engineered to […]

1 Introduction In many industrial processes, handling thick fluids or materials mixed with solids can be a serious challenge. Standard valves often clog or wear out quickly under such demanding conditions. This is where the Knife Gate Valve stands out. Designed with a sharp-edged blade that slices through slurry, sludge, and fibrous media, it’s the […]

1 Introduction   Valves play a vital role in ensuring safe and efficient operation in industrial systems. Among them, the forged valve and the cast valve are two widely used types, but they differ greatly in manufacturing process, strength, and applications. Understanding forged vs cast valves helps engineers and buyers make the right choice. As […]

1 Introduction   In industrial piping systems, selecting the right valve is critical to ensure safety, efficiency, and long-term reliability. Among the many valve types, the lift check valve and the stop check valve are two commonly compared options because of their similar design yet different functions. While both prevent backflow, their applications vary depending […]

1 Introduction   In modern industries, reliability and durability are essential when it comes to fluid control systems. A forged valve stands out as one of the most trusted solutions, thanks to its strength, precision, and ability to handle extreme pressure and temperature. Unlike cast valves, a forged valve body is formed through a forging […]

1 Introduction In industrial piping systems, check valves are vital for preventing reverse flow and ensuring safe operation. Two of the most common types are the Wafer Check Valve and the Swing Check Valve. Although they serve the same purpose, their design, performance, and applications differ. To meet these needs, LIXIN Wafer Check Valve offers […]

1 Introduction A Lift Check Valve is one of the most reliable solutions to prevent backflow in industrial fluid systems. Known for its strong sealing performance, durability, and suitability in high-pressure applications, the lift type check valve is widely used in industries ranging from petroleum and chemical processing to power generation and water treatment. In […]
