Emerson in 1988 buys Joucomatic, Europe's leading name in pneumatic valves, and combines it into the ASCO family. ASCO NumaticsIn 2008 ASCO and Numatics, companies of Emerson Industrial Automation, merged operations in North America to form ASCO Numatics -- a unified company that offers comprehensive flow control and pneumatics solutions for a wide range of industry-focused applications. In 1968, ASCO introduced a unique core tube deep drawn from stainless steel. The plugnut is pressed into the tube, and the top of the tube crimped to hold the assembly together. Since the drawn core tube could not be threaded to accept a retaining nut, as was common practice at the time, a plastic retaining cap was designed to perform the function. It was decided to use bright red for the retaining cap as natural nylon soon discolored in an industrial environment. The ASCO “RedHat” was born, and today is one of the most widely recognized brands in industrial and process plants.
