5 Facts Valve Manufacturers cannot ignore. Manufacturing gate valves of such large dimensions also comes along with challenges in manufacturing and assembly of each and every component of the valve and trim parts. Advanced casting simulation programme was required to optimise the casting process to ensure the castings manufactured were free from any residual stresses that could potentially develop during the solidification of the metal. Thus ensuring the enhanced life of the trim parts and components of the valve without subjecting them to excessive stress and strain. Extensive QA/QC and NDE inspection was also part of the bid specifications to guarantee that the valves were manufactured to the highest quality standards.
