Hydraulic Pressure Control Valves

It took 3 months and 6 proofing adjustments to match the sample quality of hydraulic pressure control valve made in Germany. Finally, AAK passed the parameter test of hydraulic pressure control valve, and our hydraulic pressure control valve was affirmed by Eatonâ??s company. We became Eatonâ??s first supplier for hydraulic pressure control valve in China. In mid October last year, an agent of Eaton came to AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE and brought a sample of Eaton hydraulic pump with a purchase value of more than US$150,000.00, asking us to make a quotation. After we checked the product parameter requirements of the artwork, we declined the quotation because AAK is only good at hydraulic valve products. Compared with its domestic peers, most of the technologies of AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE were in TOP 1-6. We thought Eaton agent would not consider us again. However, after a month, he came again and brought a Vickers Series solenoid valve with a value of up to US$200,000.00. We directly said that we are not good at this kind of products and couldn't quote. Eaton agent saw that we rejected the products that AAK is not good for 2 times, he felt that AAK is different from other hydraulic valve manufacturers, and recognized the professionalism of AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE. For the 3rd time, he brought a sample of pilot hydraulic pressure control valve with very high precision and wanted to test the parameters with our pressure test bench. I realized that Eaton agent actually wanted to test our pressure test bench with his samples. It was the first time for us to encounter such a situation, the purchaser did not test the quality of AAK hydraulic valve, but tested the equipment producing hydraulic valves first. Being satisfied with our pressure test bench, he asked if we were interested in this pilot hydraulic pressure control valve, which was a hydraulic pressure control valve produced in Germany. After learning the parameters of the hydraulic pressure control valve in detail, AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE technical team discussed the artwork of the hydraulic pressure control valve. We were 90% sure to match the quality of this hydraulic pressure control valve produced in Germany. More than 20 days later, we sent the first approval sample of the hydraulic pressure control valve. The sample comments was that there was still a 12% difference between the accuracy of AAK hydraulic pressure control valve and that of German hydraulic pressure control valve. We were required to send the revised sample again. The whole proofing and approving process have been bumpy, the parameters were continuously required to be improved. The samples have been adjusted for 6 times, finally, it met the quality of the German hydraulic pressure control valve after 3 months.

The hydraulic pressure control valve is high pressure resistant with over 2 million times of service life, AAK won the order back at a high price Caspar is from Samhydraulik S.p.A. in Italy, mainly responsible for the purchasing of hydraulic valves. In March this year, Caspar requested AAK to sample 10 hydraulic pressure control valves by soonest. This sample order was quoted half a year ago. There must be a reason for him to be so anxious to place an order now. After several rounds of communication, it was learned that Caspar was cheated by the original hydraulic pressure control valve manufacturer. In the second half of last year, their company developed a new hydraulic power unit, which requires a high-pressure hydraulic pressure control valve, and the durability should reach more than 2 million times. Caspar contacted more than 10 hydraulic pressure control valve manufacturers. Most of them are able to produce the hydraulic pressure control valves with high pressure resistance and durability of more than 2 million times. Only AAK hydraulic valve and other 2 manufacturers have quoted prices. After receiving our quotation, Caspar said that the price of AAK hydraulic pressure control valve was about 20% higher than that of other manufacturers, and then there was no further news. Until today, 6 months later, he was anxious to ask AAK to make samples immediately. 6 months ago, Caspar selected another hydraulic pressure control valve manufacturer to make samples. 5 weeks later, their new hydraulic power unit was successfully tested and the equipment was expected to be popular. Caspar asked the original hydraulic pressure control valve manufacturer to hurry up to prepare materials, but the manufacturer wanted to raise the price by 40%. Because the valve spool material was hard, the cutting tools needed to be changed constantly, the production cost was increased, and the defective rate was also high. If without a price increase, the manufacturer refuses to produce the order. Caspar felt very helpless. The boss was very dissatisfied with such a hydraulic pressure control valve manufacturer who raised the price at the last moment, and asked Caspar to find a new manufacturer. Caspar suggested that AAK can make samples. If the original price of AAK hydraulic pressure control valve can be maintained, 20% of the cost will be saved. 1 month later, AAK sent 10 samples of hydraulic valve pressure control valves. 1 week later, Caspar informed that the test was passed and 1,000 samples need to be produced immediately. Caspar also wants to know why AAK hydraulic valve pressure control valve can maintain its original price in the same 6 months, while the other manufacturer needs to increase it by 40%. Most manufacturers of hydraulic pressure control valves do not pay attention to some details in the processing at the drawing stage, and only know after suffering in the sampling process.

Lucas is from a Canadian hydraulic equipment company. He found AAK hydraulic valves online last September. His first inquiry was the hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valve. After 3 rounds of email communication, he placed a trial order for 20 pcs of hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves. I received the order so smoothly, but I didn't expect that AAK would almost take the blame for others in the first cooperation. At the beginning of last month, Lucas informed by email that there were problems with all 20 hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves provided by AAK. When the equipment was installed and debugged, the hydraulic system went on strike. This is the first time I have encountered such a complaint. AAK will do various tests on each hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valve before leaving the factory, and deliver it only after it is qualified. I asked the engineer and the workshop to verify. It was proved that the programming and production of the hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves are completely consistent with the drawings provided by Lucas, so I can ensure that the samples of AAK hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves are qualified. Our engineers speculate that there may be a problem with the oil circuit design of the valve block system, but Lucas engineers believe that AAK is shirking the responsibility. So I suggest Lucas try the hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves of other manufacturers to debug. If the hydraulic system is still abnormal, our guess is right. Two weeks later, Lucas frankly told us that there should be a problem with the oil circuit design and asked us what good methods we had? The next day, Lucas sent us the video of equipment commissioning. Indeed, during the operation of the equipment, the speed increases when the cylinder of the hydraulic system is lowered, which is equivalent to the increase of flow, and the original set pressure of the hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valve will also increase, resulting in the instability of system pressure. Therefore, it is inferred that the instability of pressure is caused by the thin oil passage of the hydraulic valve block in the system. We suggest that he send us the schematic diagram of the hydraulic system. After analysis, AAK engineers believe that the oil circuit design cannot match the working conditions of the equipment. AAK plans to design and process a new hydraulic valve block, and then installs the AAK hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves to debug the equipment. If it is not successful, AAK will not charge any fee for the hydraulic valve block. A month later, AAK sent out the newly designed hydraulic valve block. Lucas sent an email 3 days after receiving AAK hydraulic valve block. He informed that after installing the AAK designed hydraulic valve block and the hydraulic pilot-operated pressure control valves, the hydra

The original manufacturer cannot handle RV12-26 hydraulic pressure control valve with special requirements, and AAK solved it with 2 strict processes A few days ago, Anthony from Spain needed to purchase a hydraulic screw-in cartridge pressure control valve equivalent to HydraForce RV12-26, but with a special requirement for the accuracy of the valve cage. Anthony chose a hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer in Ningbo China who had cooperated with him for 2 years. However, the accuracy of the valve cage for RV12-26 hydraulic pressure control valve was unstable. The original manufacturer made samples for 3 times and all failed. 2 months have been wasted, and the engineer was very dissatisfied. Anthony was very frustrated. Last week, Anthony browsed the website of AAK hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer on B2B and left a message: 1. Do you have procedure for RV12-26 hydraulic screw-in cartridge pressure control valve? 2. Can the valve cage of hydraulic pressure control valve be customized with special requirements? 3. Can you ensure that the valve cage of each hydraulic pressure control valve meets the accuracy requirements? After communication, we learned that Anthony encountered a problem with the accuracy of the hydraulic pressure control valve cage when purchasing from the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer. In response to his special requirements, we provided 2 suggestions: optimizing the precision machining of the valve cage and conducting 100% independent testing of the valve cage accuracy. Anthony asked, how does AAK detect the accuracy of valve cages? First, I told Anthony that accuracy is not determined by testing, but rather by precision machining. For valve cage with special requirements, focus on precision machining only cannot avoid potential problem completely. At this point, testing is to eliminate the hidden problem, and the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer may have overlooked this detail. The valve cage of this hydraulic pressure control valve can be precision machined using the TOYODA cylindrical grinder from Japan. The stable grinding accuracy is the best among our experienced technicians, not only high in accuracy, but also stable. Especially low vibration bed and high-precision feed mechanism, combined with specialized cutting fluid, the processed hydraulic pressure control valve cage has a clear contour and a surface finish of within Ra0.2�¼m, the dimensional accuracy tolerance is within 0.5�¼m. Regarding the inspection of the hydraulic pressure control valve cage, please refer to the video of our workshop's on-site operation. This is a KEYENCE measuring instrument imported from Japan, which is equipped with a 20 megapixel CMOS laser probe. Before testing, our QC first inputs the size requirements of the valve cage into the program, then places the valve cage into the platform.

Gerrard, a Spanish hydraulic customer who just repeated the order at the end of May, repeated another order for hydraulic pressure valve again today, with total 3 orders for a hydraulic pressure valve a year. Since Gerrard chose AAK hydraulic valve, his customers are very satisfied with the accuracy and stability of AAK hydraulic valve. The market sales volume has increased by nearly 30% year-on-year. Now he has a higher and higher position in the company. I still remember that Gerrard urgently needed to purchase a batch of hydraulic pressure valves for cranes. However, due to the high requirements for inner hole accuracy, he visited more than 10 hydraulic valve manufacturers, and none of them could reach around 1�¼m error requirement. Gerrard was very anxious. Fortunately, some peers brought Gerrard into contact with AAK. Finally, AAK helped to solve the problem of inner hole accuracy of hydraulic pressure valve smoothly. 3 months before Gerrard got into touch us, AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE purchased a honing machine imported from the United States to deal with the production of special orders. After repeated exploration for more than a month, modified the fixture of the equipment ourselves, we created the most consistent SOP to ensure the 1 �¼M accuracy error of the inner hole for the hydraulic pressure valve. At present, less than 5% of the domestic hydraulic valve manufacturers are equipped with this equipment. Among these 5% of hydraulic valve manufacturers, maybe only one manufacturer, we AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE, can modify the equipment on our own. When AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE promised Gerrard that we have 90% of confidence to ensure that the inner hole accuracy of the hydraulic pressure valve can be controlled at 1 �¼ M, he was uneasy. After all, he visited more than 10 hydraulic valve manufacturers, and none of them successfully controlled the inner hole accuracy of the hydraulic pressure valve to 1 �¼mã??Gerrard also was in doubt. We can understand him, because we haven't done the hydraulic pressure valve with inner hole accuracy error controlled at 1 �¼ M before. After 15 days of sending the sample, Gerrard emailed us that the sample of AAK hydraulic pressure valve was approved at one time, and the surface finish of the hydraulic pressure valve was also praised by his clients. Subsequently, the first hydraulic pressure valve order from him was successfully completed. AAK hydraulic pressure valve has two absolute advantages in controlling inner hole accuracy: 1. AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE has advanced equipment - honing machine, which is refitted by ourselves to ensure that the inner hole accuracy of the hydraulic pressure valve can be controlled at 1�¼m. 2. AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE has targeted operation process, can realize the personalized customization demand for the inner hole accuracy of hydraulic pressure valve, which can not be achieved by 95% of domestic hydraulic valve manufacturers.

Just yesterday, I received a repeat order from Andy for a hydraulic flow control valve, which is just 3 months away from the delivery time of the last batch of hydraulic valves. The American customer Andy, started to communicate with us in 2019. Maybe it was just not the right time, we still didn't partner with each other till the beginning of this year. Because of encountering a Waterloo at the previous hydraulic valve manufacturer, he turned the tables at AAK and regained his confidence. At the end of last year, Andy purchased a batch of hydraulic flow control valves from a hydraulic valve manufacturer. Because 20% of the shipments leaked, he encountered customer claims. The old hydraulic valve manufacturer was unwilling to bear the claim or re-produce. The customer kept pushing for replacement hurriedly. The owner asked him to find a high-quality hydraulic valve manufacturer to reproduce the goods for the customer. Andy had a big headache at that time. The replacement quantity is not big, the hydraulic valve manufacturers with exquisite quality were unwilling to produce the small quantity for him. The hydraulic valve manufacturers who were willing to produce this quantity, were not able to meet the customerâ??s requirement about the roughness of hydraulic flow control valve. He ran into a wall everywhere, which made Andy haggard. When Andy contacted with AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE, we are willing to cooperate with her to solve this difficult problem. We tested the leaked hydraulic flow control valve sample. The reason for the leakage is the roughness of the mounting surface of the hydraulic flow control valve. According to the customer's service conditions, this roughness must be controlled at 1.0 �¼ M or less. Andy is very confused why 80% of the installation surface roughness of hydraulic flow control valve is up to standard, while 20% is out of this range. The root of this fluctuation is the master's operation method, resulting in human error. The surface roughness is the depth, density, texture of the traces left on the machined surface from the action between the tool and the part surface, which depends on the master's processing technique. Andy is very clear that at present, most domestic hydraulic valve manufacturers generally control the roughness of the installation surface of hydraulic flow control valve at 0.8-1.0 �¼ m. The biggest problem is not stable enough. Andy also knows that only AAK controls the roughness value of hydraulic flow control valve within 0.8 �¼ M, which can completely avoid leakage outside the hydraulic flow control valve, because of rest assured, Andy decided to repeat the order with AAK HYDRAULIC VALVE.

AAK hydraulic pressure control valve has a performance of 2 million times, Davis will not change the supplier any more Davis comes from a hydraulic equipment company in the United States. He has cooperated with AAK for 4 years, and it is very smooth. It is strange that since an inquiry of hydraulic pressure control valves in the second half of last year, there has been no new inquiry from him, only the reorders of some hydraulic cartridge valves. At the beginning of August, Davis asked about the production time of 200 hydraulic pressure control valves, and only then did we know that why he did not place orders for new valves for a long time. In the second half of last year, he found a hydraulic valve manufacturer whose price was more than 20% cheaper than that of AAK, so he moved the business to that manufacturer. But now troubles come out one after another, the boss is very dissatisfied, and he is under great pressure. The most troublesome thing is that a three grip electro-hydraulic puller is weak in grasping due to the leakage of the hydraulic pressure control valve. However, the manufacturer of the original hydraulic pressure control valves prevaricated, and the high frequency of use of the equipment caused the wear of the valve body, and even refused to replace the goods. Davis regretted his decision. He caused big trouble for the first time because of the 20% price difference, and had to get back to AAK. In the past 4 years of cooperation with AAK, there was no complaint. In order to help Davis get out of the predicament as soon as possible, we adjusted the production arrangement of the workshop. 2 weeks later, 200 hydraulic pressure control valves were delivered. Davis also sent me the drawings of other valves produced by that manufacturer with lower price, and asked me to be prepared for production. AAK hydraulic pressure control valve is wear-resistant and leak free, ahead of most hydraulic valve manufacturers in 3 aspects, which are also the important points to ensure the performance of 2 million times. 1. In terms of materials, AAK adopts German 20CrNi2MoV high carburized bearing steel. Through secondary quenching + cryogenic treatment + low temperature tempering process, its microhardness is 237 ~ 247HV, and its wear resistance is 3 times higher than that of similar steels. Most hydraulic valve manufacturers may know how to choose materials, but they may not do a good heat treatment. 2. On the equipment, AAK uses the Japanese NP520X-F full-automatic grinder to finish the valve spool. The surface of the processed valve spool is like a mirror with an accuracy of 0.8�¼m, the flexibility of the valve spool is improved by at least 2 times. Most hydraulic pressure control valve manufacturers can not process the same quality valve spool as AAK.

Recently, I received the second re-order of a hydraulic pressure reducing valve from French client Chinning. I still remember when I first met Chinning in 2020, Chinning purchased hydraulic pressure reducing valves in a hydraulic valve factory and encountered quality complaints from her customers. The hydraulic pressure reducing valve was deformed in less than 3 months, and some valve spools and valve sleeves were seriously worn. More and more customers began to return goods, and the old suppliers did not cooperate with her work. Chinning had a big headache at that time, and the owner kept putting pressure on her to find a hydraulic valve manufacturer with exquisite quality as soon as possible. Chinning did not find a new hydraulic valve manufacturer very smoothly. Because her hydraulic pressure reducing valve had a special use scenario and required high hardness of materials, it was unbearable for ordinary factories. At the same time, under the environmental protection policy of 2019, many previous heat treatment and processing factories were shut down, so the supply supporting system was disrupted, and the heat treatment and processing of many hydraulic valve manufacturers could not keep up. how does AAK ensure the service life of hydraulic valve products We didn't answer directly, but asked her if the hydraulic valves you purchased had the problem of deformation and rapid wear. She also replied quite frankly that she should find a hydraulic valve manufacturer that paid attention to the service life of hydraulic valves in the fastest time. I sent her several samples of hydraulic pressure reducing valve and told her that different parts of our hydraulic pressure reducing valve have different material hardness standards, and some could reach about 50-55HRC or higher. There is even no problem with 65HCR with special requirements. The service life of hydraulic pressure reducing valve is our hard index. More than one week after we sent out the samples of hydraulic pressure reducing valve, we received Chinning's email, including the drawings of hydraulic pressure reducing valve and the hardness requirements for various components. She asked whether we could produce this hydraulic pressure reducing valve? I told her that his hydraulic pressure reducing valve is not difficult, but just the working scene is some special. As long as the heat treatment process is a little unique, it could ensure her requirements. The long service life of hydraulic valve is the most critical.
