Originally founded in 1937 for the manufacture of engine superchargers, M-D Pneumatics supplied superchargers for various military and industrial applications, as well as high performance cars well into the 1950s. In the late 1950s, M-D Pneumatics began an ambitious task of developing its own line of proprietary, rotary positive displacement blowers. This new product line involved similar technical and manufacturing challenges but offered a much wider market.
Today, M-D Pneumatics™ blowers are used worldwide for pneumatic conveying in the chemical and food processing industries, for aeration of wastewater and for unloading dry bulk materials from tank trucks. M-D Pneumatics gastight blowers are utilized in handling many kinds of process and fuel gases. Additionally, M-D Pneumatics vacuum boosters are incorporated into various high-tech manufacturing processes such as semiconductor, chemical and petrochemical, plastics, food processing and vacuum furnace applications. The customer roster includes many OEMs who install M-D Pneumatics blowers and vacuum boosters in all sorts of applications from process plant systems to mobile carpet cleaning systems.
