Actuation market leader Rotork announces the introduction of the next generation of intelligent valve actuation.
Rotork's entry was led by Research and Development Director Graham Ogden, who observed: "It is a measure of our achievement that as we approach our fiftieth birthday we can still innovate at the same level as a successful young high-tech business working at the edge of technology".

Rotork's entry was centred on the development of the company's IQT quarter-turn intelligent actuator range and was subject to detailed questionnaires and factory visits by an expert panel of judges.
Ogden received the award for Rotork at a reception held in London's Hilton Hotel, where he commented: "This is a tremendous achievement and I would like to thank everyone for making Rotork the innovative company it is today".
