In the food, beverage, pharmaceutical, and biotech industries, sanitary process control isn’t just about precision - it’s about protecting product integrity and consumer safety. Every pressure and level reading impacts quality, consistency, and compliance. That’s why Triad is proud to carry NOSHOK sanitary pressure and level transmitters, engineered to deliver accurate, stable, and hygienic performance in the most demanding clean-in-place (CIP) and steam-in-place (SIP) environments.

Fall is a great time to perform routine maintenance checks on your hydraulic equipment before a broken part leaves you “out in the cold.” To ensure your hydraulic systems operate efficiently and reliably, check that your outdoor equipment is winterized and well-maintained.  This is especially important for industries whose hydraulic systems experience regular exposure to the elements, such as construction workers, foresters, salt spreaders, snowplow operators, and more. Keep your business moving with these cold weather tips for operation of hydraulic equipment.

As a leading distributor of Parker Hannifin cylinders, Triad knows that finding the perfect solution for your application can be challenging. Ensuring you get the best cylinder for the job protects your investment and prevents costly downtime caused by premature failure. For quick reference, we’ve compiled a list of key principles for cylinder selection, making it easy for our team to correctly select and size your next hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder.

A robust hose cover is a key factor in preserving the integrity of your hydraulic systems. It’s the first and often only line of defense protecting your hose in harsh operating environments. At Triad Technologies, we know that choosing the right hose cover can drastically extend the life of your hose assembly, reduce costly downtime, and enhance safety. That’s why we’re proud to carry Parker Hannifin ToughCover (TC), SuperTough (ST), Critical Protection (CP), and the related Tough Jacket (TJ) solutions!

Today’s manufacturing, material handling, and automation environments demand three things: simplicity, speed, and flexibility. Fortunately, you don't have to compromise. As your local Robotunits distributor, Triad offers a comprehensive range of workstations, conveyors, cobot stations, and safety fence systems that are designed to deliver all three.

Thank you to everyone who attended the 2025 Farm Science Review in London, Ohio! This year's event was a tremendous success, welcoming over 100,000 attendees over the course of three days. We were thrilled to be a first-time exhibitor and connect with so many of you in the agriculture community. For those who couldn't make it to this year's show, we've put together a recap of the products and solutions we had on display.

Often referred to as "over-center" or "load-holding" valves, counterbalance valves from Parker Hannifin play a vital role in ensuring the safety, precision, and longevity of your hydraulic equipment. At their core, counterbalance valves are a pressure control device that creates back pressure on an actuator. This pressure helps with controlling a load's movement, especially when gravity is working against you.

We know that seeing is believing when it comes to automation. That’s why we're bringing some of SICK's most innovative photoelectric and inductive sensors directly to you! Our sales team is equipped to demo 12 cutting-edge sensors from SICK Sensor Intelligence, each one designed to solve your unique application challenges.

Triad Technologies is restructuring our business model to better support our customers and future growth. As part of this change, we have divided our Chief Revenue Officer position into two specialized leadership roles: Vice President of Product Management and Vice President of Sales. We are pleased to announce that two highly qualified internal candidates have been promoted to these positions.

Traditional hydraulic and electromechanical systems have long been the standard for linear motion, but they come with limitations. Hybrid Actuation Systems (HAS) from Parker Hannifin combine the power of hydraulics with the simplicity of an all-in-one electric actuator, making it easier than ever before to streamline your hydraulic control systems.
