Vortex Valves is a leading manufacturer of Slide Gates and Diverter valves specifically designed to handle dry solids in both gravity and pneumatic conveying applications up to 15 PSIG.  Once a year they tour Michigan with their Mobile Display Unit in an effort to educate new and existing customers about where their valves fit into many solids handling processes and how to apply them correctly.  This Mobile Display Unit houses every valve manufactured by Vortex, and each valve is fully functional in the Unit.  The MDU is also accompanied by a factory representative from Salina, KS, to answer all design, application, and maintenance questions. 

This year the MDU will be here for the dates of September 20th through the 21st.  Please contact John Burke or Brandon Dohn to make an appointment, or you can email us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
