The paper deals with the design and the experimental analysis of an innovative pneumatic valve activated by NiTi wires, materials which belong to the so called Shape Memory Alloys (SMA). The novelty of the hereby illustrated valve concerns with the activation device, the shape and the body in polymeric material. As a consequence, the proposed device shows the following advantages: the easier assembly, the compactness, the silently functioning, the bio-compatibility, the low power activation and the production cheapness. The static and dynamic characterization of the valve has been performed through a dedicated test bench and a wide range of tests on the valve.
