Design and Technical office

design and technical office consists of highly qualified engineers to continually improve the product and the production line to meet customer needs, and provide efficient technical support to the customers.

Quality Control

Each manufacturing step is subjected to the quality control review to insure the accuracy of the valves dimensions with respect to the drawings.

Each valve must pass two types of test:

1-Air leakage test, which tests the seats performance 2-Shell thickness test (Hydraulic test), which tests the valve body to ensure that it, can withstand its nominal pressure.

Warehouse

The stock strategy is to provide a 100 % of the components and valve bodies of all the production lines to be able to continually feed the workshops. On shelf products stock to minimize delivery time.
