ROSS CONTROLS公司于1921年7月创立于美国密歇根州底特律市，是一家专业生产气动阀门的公司。ROSS CONTROLS公司自创业以来已有90多年的历史，作为世界著名的气动控制产品制造商，ROSS CONTROLS在在气动安全阀门领域享有极高的声誉。不仅在欧美，而且在亚洲及全世界各国的各个领域内，ROSS产品均被广泛采用。

ROSS CONTROLS气动阀门品种达到5000多种，生产并销售从口径1/8英寸到2-1/2英寸的各式阀门，包括电磁控制阀、空气控制阀、手动阀、双联阀等等，全面应用于多种工业领域，如钢铁、锻压、玻璃制瓶、铝业、安全等行业。ROSS CONTROLS在气动阀门的设计研究开发方面也一直位于世界先进行列，在空气控制技术上成功进行了众多巨大的革新，作为ROSS CONTROLS代表性产品的双联阀，更是被不断完善、推陈出新，以求为用户提供最为安全优质的服务。  

ROSS Controls®和对机器安全的关注......两者齐头并进。 ROSS一直致力于设计和提供用于气动能量隔离（LOTO）的安全产品的“行业标准”，并为离合器/制动应用和一般制造行业的压力金属成型行业控制可靠的双阀数十年。甚至在联邦和州职业安全与健康管理局（OSHA）存在之前，ROSS就设计并提供了用于能量隔离和机械压力机离合器/制动控制阀的阀门，这些阀门后来被广泛认为是公司在非压力应用中遵守法规的辅助手段。这些是当今制造业中最安全的关键气动阀应用，ROSS一直致力于帮助工人更安全地工作，帮助保护客户的机械投资，提高生产率。

ROSS Controls总部位于密歇根州特洛伊市，是一家为流体动力行业提供气动阀门，控制系统和安全产品的国际制造商。自1921年成立以来，ROSS一直是气动阀技术行业最强大的领导者之一。 ROSS的重点是继续成为关键行业的强大竞争对手，其量身定制的技术为客户提供独特的价值优势。

ROSS在美国，德国，法国，日本和印度拥有通过ISO 9001认证的设施和销售办事处。此外，ROSS还在英国，巴西，印度，中国和加拿大设有办事处，这些办事处由145个库存分销商组成的全球网络进行了扩充，以实现真正的全球客户服务能力。

1919年的一个晚上，叮当作响的铃铛和咆哮的警报器刺穿了傍晚的空气。通过消防车的紧迫性提醒邻居们在附近的街角爆发火焰。向天空滚滚的烟雾引导消防员前往现场：底特律无缝钢管公司正在失去与火的斗争。当他们到达时，工厂被火焰吞没了。消防员和绝望的员工试图挽救他们的工作，都不能回避这座建筑。那天晚上，造成这种损害的火花也带来了新的机会。

当发生这起重大火灾时，ROSS Controls的联合创始人查尔斯·A·罗斯（Charles A. Ross）被底特律无缝用作工艺工程师。他一直致力于新的钢管穿孔工艺，使用空气阀完成几个步骤。不幸的是，狂暴的火焰融化了他继续这项工作所需的空气阀门。罗斯先生需要更换这些阀门，但由于它们是在德国制造的，所以他不知所措。第一次世界大战严重损害了德国的制造业，所以任何获得所需替代品的尝试都是没有希望的。众所周知，罗斯先生或“查理”决定设计和制造自己的手动阀门，以便再次开始生产。

ROSS Controls® and concern for machine safety... the two go hand in hand. ROSS has been designing and supplying the "industry standards" of safety products for pneumatic energy isolation (LOTO) and control reliable double valves for the Press metal forming industry for clutch/brake applications and the general manufacturing sector for decades. Even before Federal and State Occupational Safety and Health Administrations (OSHA) existed, ROSS designed and supplied valves for energy isolation and mechanical press clutch/brake control valves that were later widely recognized as aids to companies for regulatory compliance in non-press applications. These are some of the most safety critical pneumatic valve applications in manufacturing today, and ROSS has been there to help make jobs safer for workers, helping to protect our customers' investments in machinery, and increase productivity.

Headquartered in Troy, Michigan, ROSS Controls is an international manufacturer of pneumatic valves, controls systems, and safety products for the fluid power industry. Since being established in 1921, ROSS has always been one of the industry’s strongest leaders in pneumatic valve technology. ROSS’ focus is to continue to be a formidable competitor in key industries where its tailored technology offers customers a distinct value advantage.

ROSS has ISO 9001 certified facilities and sales offices located in the United States, Germany, France, Japan, and India. In addition, ROSS has dedicated offices in United Kingdom, Brazil, India, China, and Canada, which are augmented by a worldwide network of 145 stocking distributors for a truly global customer service capability.

Clanging bells and roaring sirens pierced the evening air one night in 1919. The urgency of the passing fire carriages alerted neighbors to the blaze erupting on a nearby street corner. The smoke billowing skyward lead the firemen to the scene: the Detroit Seamless Steel Tube Company was losing its struggle with a fire. By the time they arrived, the factory had been swallowed by flames. Neither the firemen nor the desperate crowds of employees trying to save their jobs could recuse the building. That night, the spark that created such damage also led to a new opportunity.

The co-founder of ROSS Controls, Charles A. Ross, was employed by the Detroit seamless as a process engineer when this major fire occurred. He had been working on a new steel tube piercing process, which used air valves to complete several steps. Unfortunately, the raging fire melted the air valves he needed to continue this work. Mr. Ross needed to replace these valves but he was at a loss because they were made in Germany. World War I had hurt Germany’s manufacturing sector badly, so any attempts to obtain the needed replacements would have been hopeless. Mr. Ross, or “Charlie” as he was known, decided to design and make his own manually operated valves in order to get production moving again.
