Put the pig into it through the rapid opening and closing the quick-opening closure on the receiver & launcher, achieved fast completing cleaning or dredge pipe work, in order to improve the pipeline transport capacity, and reduce energy consumption, to ensure the safe operation of the pipeline system. It divided into normal and intelligent receiver & launcher according to use the type of pigs difference, it is the main difference between the barrel length of pig launcher & receiver.
