Since 2002, Bowles has served mutliple industries with our integrated systems. Utilizing all in-house engineering capabilities, we have launched and are currently producing complex systems that contain our trademark fluidic devices.
Founded on our core fluid logic technology, Bowles has been providing elegant fluidic system solutions to a variety of industries. Most predominant is our seat massage product line. When possible, our system utilizes available air sources, as in over-the-road trucks or dental chairs. However, we have the ability to fully design, validate and produce complex systems containing electrical harnesses, pumps and valves.
Most interesting to our customers is the ability to generate the massage as shown in the pressure map below WITHOUT any moving parts.

Seat massage is a novel product for this technology but other, more critical, industries are employing this type of fluid logic. Fluidics are continually sought after in applications for products that treat individuals with compromised pulmonary function. Ranging from the safety of miners and first responders to treatment of premature infants, traditional fluid logic devices are finding their way into everyone's life.
