USA manufacturer of pneumatic/hydraulic cylinders, pressure/temperature/vacuum switches, and transducers for automation.
Nason is a US-based manufacturer of pneumatic and hydraulic motion and sensing components for industrial automation, headquartered and produced entirely in Walhalla, South Carolina. The company's catalog spans three core product families: cylinders, switches and transducers. Its cylinder line includes hydraulic series (L, L15, L20, L30 and NFPA) and pneumatic/air series (CR stainless steel, H-Block, ISO 15552, SC, LC, BS, PS and TS), along with actuators and a wide range of mounting accessories, solid-state limit sensors and alignment couplers. Nason manufactures a broad range of switches for pressure (high- and low-pressure models such as WX, CD, CF, XM, CJ, LM, MM, SM and SQ), temperature (TF, TW, TT, TD) and vacuum (JV, VM, VF), used to monitor and trigger actions in machinery and fluid-power systems.
Its transducer range covers pressure transducers (NT, NT25, NT40, NT100, NTBT, NES and others) and temperature transducers (NTPT, NTS) engineered for compact size and high accuracy. Nason emphasizes custom-engineered, application-specific components, offering a product configurator, application worksheets and sample-request programs, and will build bespoke parts at its South Carolina facility when standard items do not fit. Distributed through a network of partners, Nason's reliable switches, space-efficient cylinders and precise transducers serve OEMs and machine builders across manufacturing and fluid-power automation applications.
Primary type & automation activities this supplier delivers:
Stainless steel pneumatic air cylinders for corrosion-resistant automation and actuation.

Panasonic Connect is at the forefront of transforming manufacturing systems as electronics become smaller and more complex. The company offers smart manufacturing solutions that integrate surface-mount technology (SMT), robotics, AI analytics, and connected factory platforms. Through its Gemba Process Innovation strategy, Panasonic Connect aims to enhance productivity and operational resilience in factories. The increasing complexity of electronics, particularly in vehicles and industrial systems, is reshaping production line design and operations. Scott Zerkle, associate director of technical operations at Panasonic Connect North America, emphasizes that AI's primary value lies in supporting factory workers through predictive maintenance and defect detection, rather than replacing them. He highlights the need for manufacturers to connect data across various production elements to foster continuous improvement. Looking ahead, Zerkle predicts that the next significant advancement in smart manufacturing will involve integrating AI tools with data from machines and materials. This integration will enable factories to learn from their production history, ultimately enhancing efficiency and adaptability in high-mix production environments.
