Explore a comprehensive overview of the PBMC (Pivoting Blind Mate Coupling) design in this 16-minute presentation by Glenn Charest from Meta and Andy Holst from Parker Hannifin. Learn about this new blind mate valve technology being developed as a workstream within the Blind Mate CLA group through multi-supplier collaboration to ensure interoperability and scalable deployment. Discover how PBMC offers significantly higher flow capabilities compared to BMQC for supporting higher power systems while maintaining a minimal form factor. The presentation covers the valve's design principles, its ability to adapt to misalignment, basic requirements, performance targets, improvements based on BMQC1 learnings, and current development status.
