Hydraulic Sequence Valve Operation

Yesterday, I received a repeat order for a hydraulic sequence valve from . The first order of this hydraulic sequence valve was placed 3 years ago. Before, I wondered why this hydraulic sequence valve had not been repurchased, thinking that it had been switched back to the United States for production. I really didn't expect to receive the repeat order after 3 years, and the quantity was more than 3 times that before. 3 years ago, company had a newly designed hydraulic pump to be produced in branch, and the pump needed hydraulic sequence valve. If purchasing the hydraulic sequence valve in the , it was expected to take 3 months or more. His owner wanted to try purchasing in , hoping to save half the time. According to the owner instructions, spent 3 days looking for hydraulic valve factories, selected 5 hydraulic valve manufacturers from more than 10 as their hydraulic sequence valve suppliers, and asked them to send reference samples of hydraulic sequence valves to Vietnam for testing. happily reported the purchasing status to his owner, who was satisfied. After received these hydraulic sequence valve samples, he arranged the technical department to match the working conditions for testing, but the results were poor. The matching clearance between the valve body and the valve spool of some hydraulic sequence valves was small. After an additional 20 pressurization, the valve hole was deformed and the valve spool would be stuck. All 5 hydraulic valve manufacturers said that after additional pressurization, they were not able to ensure the quality of hydraulic sequence valve. Time has been wasted for more than 2 weeks. At this time, if returning back to the United States to purchase hydraulic sequence valves, he would be scolded by his owner. to worry. When browsed , he felt that hydraulic valve was some different from the other hydraulic valve manufacturers. He emailed to inquire about the hydraulic sequence valve and frankly told us the problems he had encountered with Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers. After several rounds of communication and technical team analysis of his drawings, we truthfully told him that existing hydraulic sequence valve samples could not meet his pressurization test. It takes 2 weeks to proofing according to the drawing. If the sample of the hydraulic sequence valve is approved and it takes 25 30 days to produce his order for the hydraulic sequence valve, calculates the time. If the sample of hydraulic sequence valve is successful, the time saving meets the requirements of the owner. If it is not successful, it will waste another 2 weeks. It seems that he has no choice. Somehow, feels that can give him hope and hopes that we can send samples as soon as possible.

Richard is a purchaser of ATOS company in Italy. Last September, ATOS received a complaint from a South African customer that the starting pressure of the hydraulic pump was often insufficient recently. The field engineer analyzed that the valve spool spring of the pilot hydraulic relief valve of the hydraulic pump was deformed, resulting in the unstable pressure of the hydraulic system. He tried to replace the pilot hydraulic relief valve to solve the problem. The customer questioned the stability of their equipment because it had been used for less than 1 year. After learning about it, the owner asked Richard to solve the customer complaint as soon as possible and replace this batch of pilot hydraulic relief valves. Richard wondered about the problem with the pilot hydraulic relief valve. This pilot hydraulic relief valve was produced by an American company and was re purchased this time. The original manufacturer replied that this pilot hydraulic relief valve has been produced according to the standard. The strength limit and elastic limit of the piano steel wire used meet the requirements. The problem should be caused by improper use by the user. Of course, he can not tell the owner of such results. The original manufacturer was unwilling to take responsibility. Richard contacted nearly 20 hydraulic valve manufacturers, including AAK hydraulic valve. After several rounds of communication, Richard eliminated half of the hydraulic valve manufacturers, and then asked the shortlisted hydraulic valve manufacturers to send their own ready-made pilot hydraulic relief valves. Their company conducted spring elasticity test. Finally, 5 manufacturers were selected to send samples for the second round according to the drawing size of his pilot hydraulic relief valve and improve the spring elasticity. After communicating with Richard, we learned that the service limit pressure of the hydraulic pump is above 350bar and the service frequency is very high. Although the piano wire spring used by Sun, the original American manufacturer, is advanced, special materials must be used for this special working condition. We started to test the special spring first. Richard has received samples of pilot hydraulic relief valves from other 4 factories, but AAK hasn't sent them yet. Richard pushed us several times and we advised that we are still in testing. Richard may think AAK should not be able to do it. AAK engineers spent 3 weeks, 6 times replacing materials and 9 times proofing, determined the special alloy steel spring as a trial, and sent the pilot hydraulic relief valve 30 days later. We specially asked Richard about the test of the pilot hydraulic relief valves from the other 4 manufacturers. Richard advised that if AAK pilot hydraulic relief valve could not pass the test, he would need a new round of looking for suppliers.

In this year, , an customer, visited 5 hydraulic valve factories before and after, and made samples of hydraulic relief valve with 1m inner hole for 3 times, but none of them reached the accuracy requirements. sent samples and met the standard for the 1st time, finally chose to cooperate with . The inner hole accuracy is not enough, which is mainly caused by the different built in equipment of honing machines equipped by many hydraulic valve manufacturers. Conventional honing machines use diamond reamers., Because the main cutting part of the diamond reamer is at the tool head, the tool head wears quickly. After the head is worn, it is very easy to cause the size of the hole bottom to be small, resulting in the poor cylindricity of the whole hole and affecting the accuracy. This is the key to the 5% accuracy error. Many hydraulic valve manufacturers are not aware of this key point. , a purchaser from a hydraulic valve in , has an inquiry for a special hydraulic relief valve, and the inner hole accuracy must be controlled within 1m. checked with the original hydraulic valve supplier, and got reply that only the hydraulic valve manufacturer equipped with high precision honing machine is able to make the hydraulic relief valve with 1m inner hole accuracy. According to the equipment configuration, has contacted with more than 10 hydraulic valve manufacturers, determined to visit 5 hydraulic valve manufacturers, and asked 3 powerful factories to sample the hydraulic relief valve. After testing and comparing the samples received from these 3 hydraulic valve factories, all failed to meet the standard. asked the manufacturer with the highest accuracy to continue to improve the proofing, and there is still 0.1m gap. The factory gave up and introduced HYDRAULIC VALVE to him, maybe can do the hydraulic relief valve with 0.1m inner hole accuracy. According to his hydraulic relief valve drawing, we advised that we can send 1pc hydraulic relief valve quality sample after 10 days. 5 days after successfully sent the hydraulic relief valve sample, Bowen informed that the accuracy met the standard. He wanted to know why so many hydraulic valve manufacturers could not achieve 1m inner hole hydraulic relief valve, even if the hydraulic valve manufacturers promised to do so and they also have high precision honing machines, but several proofing did not meet the standard. How did hydraulic valve achieve it Honing machine is really helpful for the machining of high precision inner hole. Due to different equipment configuration, not every hydraulic valve manufacturer can produce the hydraulic relief valve with 1m inner hole accuracy.

James is the purchasing director of one of our American Hydraulic customers. They are the top 3 in the construction machinery industry in the United States, and their market share is increasing year by year. James is also doing well. In May last year, the MP550-HDD-18 cement delivery pump supplied by their company to a local construction company often failed to reach the rated value for the system pressure during use, and the oil pressure of the hydraulic system can only reach 12MPa. After disassembling the hydraulic system, the engineer found that the joint surface between the conical pilot valve body and the valve seat of the hydraulic relief valve was grinded out with a circle of uneven groove line with a depth of about 1mm for unknown reason. The hydraulic oil flowed back to the oil tank from this groove, and the hydraulic relief valve had no sealing function. The customer wanted Jamesâ??s company to replace the hydraulic relief valve of the same model within 2-3 weeks. If they miss the time, the project progress will be affected. When James purchased this hydraulic relief valve from the original German hydraulic valve supplier again, he was told that they produce this hydraulic relief valve no longer. If he wanted to re-produce it, it would take 35 days and modify the production process and auxiliary equipment, which would require an additional cost of more than 30,000 US dollars. This style of hydraulic relief valve was just purchased by James 2 years ago. When he reported this situation to the president, the president didn't understand why he didn't have an alternative hydraulic valve manufacturer. James realized that the president was unhappy. When he sent the anatomical drawing of this hydraulic relief valve to more than 20 hydraulic valve manufacturers, almost all said that they have no hydraulic relief valve with such structure, James was a little flustered. In March this year, James just purchased a batch of high-precision hydraulic relief valves from AAK. He wanted to see if AAK had a way to solve this thorny problem. When he sent us the pictures of this hydraulic relief valve made in Germany, we asked him to send us the whole complete technical drawings, as well as the use environment and working conditions. The pressure of this hydraulic relief valve is 31.5Mpa and the flow is 200L / min, which is basically consistent with the parameters of the hydraulic relief valve we supplied to them before. However, there is a fatal problem that the internal structure, appearance, shape and size are inconsistent with those of the hydraulic relief valve they purchased in Germany, so it is difficult to install on the transmission line. After learning that the only way is to meet the requirements of the transmission line at the construction site in the United States, AAK engineers designed a new hydraulic system with two pipe joints and an oil plug according

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.
