Bauer is a purchaser of American PowerTeam company. In recent years, the purchasing of hydraulic valves has been smooth. Last October, PowerTeam received a test order for a hydraulic power unit from a South African customer. The customer requires to receive the prototype in the shortest time. If the prototype test is normal, there will be a series of orders later. The boss attached great importance to it and asked the technical team to design and develop it. What the engineers are most worried about is that the use frequency of the hydraulic power unit is twice that of the conventional one. Therefore, the durability of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve used should be at least more than 2 million times. According to the parameters and working conditions of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, Bauer contacted more than 20 new and old hydraulic valve manufacturers. After one-to-one communication, he selected 5 hydraulic valve manufacturers to make samples for testing. 20 days later, Bauer received 6 samples of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves. After the engineers installed and tested, none of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valves could pass the durability test for 2 million times. Bauer had a second round of communication with the manufacturers, 3 of the hydraulic valve manufacturers said they would re-sample the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve. After the second round of testing, although the durability of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves has been improved, they have not reached 2 million times. Bauer was embarrassed. He might have killed the big order. After communicating, the manufacturer advised that there was nothing he could do. Bauer was very worried and had to try his luck with a new hydraulic valve manufacturer. He found AAK hydraulic valve on Google and searched AAK website (www.aakindustry.com). After browsing, Bauer thought that AAK might be able to successfully sample this hydraulic threaded cartridge valve. After receiving the working condition requirements and drawings of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve from Bauer, AAK engineer made analysis and determined that they were more than 95% confident to make it successfully. After 2 rounds of testing, the engineer defined the production process of proofing and circled the technical difficulties. After 20 days, AAK sent the samples of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve. Unexpectedly, 2 months after the samples of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves were sent, we received the official order of 600 hydraulic threaded cartridge valves from Bauer. Bauer said that the equipment commissioning of South African customer was successful and the operation was stable, they were very satisfied with the quality of PowerTeam. The boss was very satisfied that Bauer found such a great hydraulic valve manufacturer and designated AAK as their exclusive supplier of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves. Bauer also knew why AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve can be successful at one time. There are not only professional engineers to design the process, but also self-developed equipment to escort it. Most hydraulic valve manufacturers do not have the equipment for durability test, but many dimensions of this hydraulic threaded cartridge valve are non-standard, so many non-standard calibers of this hydraulic threaded cartridge valve should be tested separately. AAK has the independently developed durability test equipment for hydraulic threaded cartridge valves, which can be combined with NFPA / T2.6.1 standard to carry out fatigue test on valves according to the specified requirements of customers. AAK durability test equipment has 5 test stations that can work independently of each other. Each test area is equipped with hydraulic and electrical sources that are conducive to valve fatigue test, which can greatly improve the detection efficiency of the equipment, so as to ensure that each hydraulic threaded cartridge valve can be shipped after passing the test. AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, with unique testing equipment to ensure the success of each sample.

Shunnar is from Pakistan and has been purchasing hydraulic valves in China for quite some time. In the second half of last year, they purchased a hydraulic pressure control valve from a hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer in Ningbo China, which is equivalent to a model of HydraForce. 3 months later, the customer complained that the hydraulic pressure control valve did not hold pressure. The original manufacturer claimed that it was caused by a leak and it was difficult to avoid it 100%. Shunnar realized that the manufacturing quality of the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer was unstable. Shunnar found AAK hydraulic valves on Google and left a message: 1. Does AAK has this hydraulic pressure control valve equivalent to HydraForce model? 2. What is the pressure holding performance? 3. What is the lead time for 100 hydraulic pressure control valves of this model? After communication, it was learned that she encountered difficulties in purchasing the hydraulic pressure control valve. I provided her the shipping list of our hydraulic pressure control valve over the past year, as well as a video of our inspection of the hydraulic pressure control valve. Perhaps Shunnar was rest assure of the quality and directly placed an order for 100 hydraulic pressure control valves the next day. 6 months have passed, which was last week. Shunnar emailed to inquire about the production time of 500 hydraulic pressure control valves and specifically stated that AAK hydraulic pressure control valves have been holding pressure normally for 6 months, while some of the hydraulic pressure control valves from the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer lost pressure in only 3 months. Before shipment, the AAK hydraulic pressure control valve is tested on a test bench, which has 3 unique features: 1. The test bench is equipped with a set of high-precision hydraulic gauges and control systems. 2. The reliability and efficiency of detection are more stable than most test benches, and the detection is also more accurate. 3. On the test bench display screen, it is possible to visually see the measured pressure and flow values of each hydraulic pressure control valve. If there is a discrepancy with the set data, a red font will appear to prompt, thus avoiding human error. AAK hydraulic pressure control valve, is holding pressure even in 100% full testing? You can give it a try. AAK HYDRAULIC VALVES (615) 2023-06-27 https://www.aakindustry.com/info , -detail/pressure-control-valves-aak615

A while ago, Kuzma from Russia left a message on the website of hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer AAK: 1.Can you provide RV10-26 hydraulic cartridge relief valve with an adjustable hand knob? 2. Each valve needs to be tested at a low flow rate of 2L/min to ensure that the pressure can be adjusted within a range of up to 200 bar. 3. What is the price and lead time for 50 pcs of RV10-26 hydraulic cartridge relief valves? Such messages have a probability of over 95% being actual orders, and hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer AAK often responds promptly. After communication, it was learned that the RV10-26 hydraulic cartridge relief valve was purchased by them all year round. The relief valves provided by the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer have 2 problems that often troubled them, the hand knob and pressure issues. Because of the requirements of the equipment, their RV10-26 hydraulic relief valve needs to be manually adjusted frequently. Although the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer has conducted the anodizing treatment of the adjusting hand knob and the fixed screw disk, 6 months later, the adjusting screw is severely worn, resulting in a short service life of the valve. The suggestion given by hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer AAK is to first adjust the hand knob and fixed screw, select aluminum alloy with high hardness, and the adjustment screw must be hardened before anodizing treatment. After hardening and heat treatment, the wear resistance of the adjusting screw can be increased by more than 50%, which is a detail that most hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturers are not familiar with. On the second day, Kuzma approved the suggestion of hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer AAK. For Kuzma's requirement to test each valve at a low flow rate of 2L/min to ensure that the pressure can be adjusted within a range of up to 200 bar, it should because of the valves provided by the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer had leakage issue. In the case of stable manufacturing quality, it is necessary to test each RV10-26 hydraulic relief valve before shipment. I estimate that the original hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer did not conduct a 100% full inspection. Yesterday, we completed the production of 50 pcs of RV10-26 hydraulic relief valves and attached our inspection video. Today, we received confirmation from Kuzma for shipment. How did AAK test this model? We chose a test bench that we modified ourselves. First, we installed the hydraulic relief valve into the valve block, which was connected to the inlet and outlet pipes. After started the hydraulic oil pump on the test bench, the testing system started working. After the oil forms a circuit, the inspector will manually adjust the oil outlet pressure within the range of 200 bar, set the flow rate at 2L/min, run for a period of time, and record the pressure and flow data. This set of tests is relatively slow, but very accurate. Because it consumes a lot of testing time, most hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturers are unwilling to conduct such tests or 100% testing. AAK hydraulic cartridge relief valve, focus on details, adhere to inspection, you can also give it a try!

The opening and closing characteristics can reach 95% opening rate and 90% closing rate, the operating pressure swing is not greater than ± 0.1MPa, and the design service life is more than 1 million times. For this high precision, high stability and high durability 3-high hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, Jacob is surprised that the AAK hydraulic valve is successful in one-time sample, while most hydraulic valve manufacturers are not able to do at all. Jacob is a purchaser of Intermot company in Italy. The company has a newly developed hydraulic motor, which needs to use hydraulic threaded cartridge valve. This motor is a high-frequency operation and has strict requirements for various parameters, especially for the parameters of hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, which has 3 high requirements of high accuracy, high stability and high durability. The boss asked Jacob to complete the procurement of this batch of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves within 60 days. He selected 4 from the original hydraulic valve suppliers to make samples. After installation, it was found that the opening and closing characteristics of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves can only reach 90% opening rate and 85% closing rate, which is 5% lower than the parameter requirements. Even the operating pressure swing of some hydraulic threaded cartridge valves exceeds 0.2MPa. In the last step testing, only 2 or 3 samples can be intact after 1 million durability tests. If all three requirements should be reached at the same time, nearly none of the samples meet the standard. Due to the limitation of equipment, the original manufacturer said it was difficult to improve significantly. Jacob learned about AAK hydraulic valve under the introduction of its peers. After browsing AAK website (www.aakindustry. com), he felt that the AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve might help him. After receiving the parameter requirements and drawings of his hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, we found that the requirements of this hydraulic threaded cartridge valve are not simple, but our technical team needs to chew this hard bone and gave reply to Jacob that if it goes well, the samples of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve can be sent within 20 days. On the contrary, it needs more time for proofing. Jacob hopes that AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve sample will be successful, which just meets the delivery time required by the boss. After 15 days, AAK sent the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve samples successfully. After installation and test by the engineer, all parameters of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valves are qualified and meet the 3 high requirements of high accuracy, high stability and high durability. After 25 days, the shipment of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve was delivered as scheduled. The boss knew a series of frustrations that Jacob encountered during this purchasing, and praised the 3 high standards of AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, not only because the quality of AAK hydraulic valve is reliable, but also because of credit. Jacob wondered why AAK hydraulic valve can achieve a 3-high hydraulic threaded cartridge valve with only one-time sample, while most hydraulic valve manufacturers are helpless. For the 3-high hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, AAK has Mikron GF machining center imported from Switzerland. It has advanced thermal stability, and the high precision is still stable in the long-time machining process. The Mikron GF unique spindle omnidirectional anti-collision protection technology (MSP) can prevent the spindle from collision failure, and integrate automatic solutions to ensure the stability of precision parts. There are also experienced technicians who have been in our factory for more than 10 years. Sometimes they can judge the production status by listening to the sound of the machine only, and each production link of the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve is engraved in their mind. The craftsman hand will produce good products, which is the strength of AAK. Integrity, sincerity, trust and credit are the way of hydraulic valves that AAK has always adhered to. AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve, strength to speak, sincerity to do things, welcome a small try! https://www.aakindustry.com/info-detai , l/hydraulic-threaded-cartridge-valve- aak145

Brooke is the purchasing manager of the American company Vickers and has been working with AAK for more than 6 years. One morning last month, he emailed us that his job was finally saved. I was surprised how a veteran suddenly said that he had finally "saved his job". In private, I learned that it was because he had some disagreements with his boss and quarreled. The boss almost let him go. Because his boss is not satisfied with the price of AAK, sometimes the price of AAK for the same hydraulic valve will be more than 20% higher than that of other Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers. At the cost meeting last month, the boss proposed to replace the Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturer, but Brooke insisted that AAK is the most cost-effective Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturer, so it is not recommended to replace it. On the contrary, he can only leave. The year before last, the boss went to Shanghai PTC exhibition with him to develop suitable Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers for cooperation. They did get acquainted with many Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers at the exhibition, but after more than 2 years of testing samples and running in, Brooke found that there is really no second Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturer that can compare with AAK in all aspects. AAK is not only reliable, but also has temperature, whether it is cooperation, delivery, quality, after-sales etc. Brooke remembers the support and help from AAK hydraulic valve over the years. On one occasion, due to the urgent delivery time of a South African customer, Brooke could not find a factory with stock at that time and could only customize it. Most Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers said that the lead time from sampling to delivery should be at least 2 months. AAK stopped a production line and asked technicians to work overtime to speed up the production. Samples can be produced in 30 days and shipped in 45 days. It is precisely because of the temperature of AAK that Vickers has the opportunity to cooperate with this big customer in South Africa. Every time, AAK products can be successful at one time during testing. They are the best among all Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers in terms of accuracy, concentricity, fatigue resistance and durability. Brooke's deepest memory is that one time, the South African customer mentioned that the hydraulic valve used for more than 2 years often stuck during work and asked for replacement. After receiving the news, AAK immediately told Brooke to ask the customer to return the goods. After inspection, it turned out that the hydraulic oil used by the South African customer was not clean and caused the problem. Later, AAK disassembled and cleaned the valve and sent it again, and asked the customer to change the hydraulic oil. Until now, no problem has been mentioned. If this happened to other Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers, their reply must be that this has passed the warranty period. After listening to Brooke's analysis, the boss instantly resonated. It is indeed too difficult to find another Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturer like AAK, who can always put the interests of customers at the first place. Sometimes, even if it is 20% higher, it is still worthy. At the same time, it was made clear at the meeting that AAK would be the first choice for them among Chinese hydraulic valve manufacturers in the future. AAK is the most reliable hydraulic valve manufacturer in China. It can solve difficulties for customers at any time.

Erdmann has been a purchaser of German HAWE company for 5 or 6 years and has been doing very well. Last month, the company had a special hydraulic threaded cartridge valve to purchase. Because it is to be used in the Arctic region, the corrosion resistance of hydraulic threaded cartridge valve needs to be very high. The boss asked him to identify the suppliers and approve the samples within 2 months. Erdmann felt that it could be completed within 20 days. He sent the drawings of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves to the original hydraulic valve manufacturers. Only 2 weeks later, he received samples of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves from one factory. The surface gloss of these samples of hydraulic threaded cartridge valves was quite good. The company tested them on the exploration drilling machine and delivered it quickly to the customer. 3 months later, the customer complained that the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve on the hydraulic pump was seriously corroded, some threads were stuck, the equipment could not be started, and the test run was unsuccessful. The boss thought that Erdmann was careless and ignored the use scene of the Arctic region. The boss again asked him to make new samples and do salt spray test inside the company. Actually, Erdmann emphasized that the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve is to be used in the Arctic region. The original supplier said that their hydraulic threaded cartridge valves have good gloss and corrosion resistance, and can be used in the Arctic region. Erdmann communicated with the original hydraulic threaded cartridge valve supplier again, and the reply was that most hydraulic valve manufacturers just adopt the zinc plating process, and he used the nickel plating process which is the highest level of corrosion resistance. Erdmann realized the difficulty of corrosion resistance in the Arctic regions. Erdmann emailed more than 20 hydraulic valve manufacturers who had been contacted before, emphasizing that the hydraulic threaded cartridge valve must be in the highly corrosive environment in the Arctic region, and the service life shall not be less than 9 months. Only 3 hydraulic valve manufacturers said they could have a try, but there was no response from other manufacturers. Erdmann was a little flustered. Erdmann saw AAK hydraulic valve on Google, who supplied to hydraulic pump company in Russia. He felt that AAK might give him a glimmer of hope. He emailed us to ask if we can produce hydraulic threaded cartridge valves to be used in Arctic regions. We directly replied that the components of the valve should be treated by special electroplating process in order to meet the condition in the Arctic regions. After 20 days, AAK sent samples according to his hydraulic threaded cartridge valve drawings. HAWE company conducted salt spray test on samples from all 4 manufacturers, with the corrosion condition twice that of Arctic regions. More than 2 months later, Erdmann informed us that AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve had no red rust after more than 1500 hours of salt spray test. At the same time, the company's engineers determined that AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve had no problem to be used in the Arctic regions for 1 year. While the samples from other manufacturers began to produce red rust in more than 120 hours, and there were white corrosion products on the coating surface. Erdmann hesitated to report to his boss because the quotation of AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve is 30% higher than that of other suppliers. The surface electroplating process of AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve is zinc nickel alloy coating, which has high requirements for steel heat treatment. It may be difficult to find a second factory in Ningbo who can go through both of these two processes smoothly. In addition, the process cost is more than 5 times higher, but the corrosion resistance is more than 10 times higher than the general zinc plating and nickel plating process. With these data, the communicated between Erdmann with the boss is very efficient. The boss mentioned that for all those valves with high standard and high working conditions, just to choose AAK hydraulic valves. AAK hydraulic threaded cartridge valve will not corrode in the Arctic regions even after being used for 1 year.

AAK hydraulic directional control valve, which has been used for 2 years, is free of rust and corrosion. It stands out from 3 hydraulic valve manufacturers. Joseph finally received a large order for 1000 hydraulic directional control valves from customer. Joseph is the purchasing manager of a hydraulic pump company in Italy. Two years ago, the company received a test order for a special chemical hydraulic pump, which needs a hydraulic direction control valve. The customer requires that after 2 years, if the hydraulic directional control valve is free of rust and corrosion, it will have the opportunity to obtain a large order. The boss asked Joseph to find a very professional hydraulic valve manufacturer. Joseph knew that relying only on the existing hydraulic valve suppliers is not enough to guarantee the quality. He checked with all the hydraulic valve manufacturers he had contacted before and the new ones searched online, and selected 16 hydraulic valve factories, including AAK Hydraulic Valve. He asked all hydraulic valve manufacturers to provide 2 samples of hydraulic directional control valves according to the drawing requirements of the customer for testing at their headquarters. According to the post analysis to the drawing of hydraulic directional control valve from Joseph, we found that there is no problem to meet the accuracy, sensitivity and durability of this hydraulic directional control valve, except that the finish of the outer surface of the hydraulic directional control valve must be free of abnormality, rust and corrosion after 2 years of use, which is too uncertain. We didn't receive email from Joseph until 15 days after we sent out the hydraulic directional control valve samples. According to their simulation test, only the hydraulic directional control valves from 3 factories can be approved to send samples to their customer. It would take 2 years for AAK to know if we can get the order of hydraulic directional control valve. At that time, we were very surprised that there were such strange customers. We almost forgot the test order of this hydraulic directional control valve 2 years ago. Last week, Joseph sent an email asking about the production time and new price of 1000 hydraulic directional control valves, and told us that the surface of the hydraulic directional control valves from other two hydraulic valve manufacturers began to have scratches, corrosion, fading and rust after more than a year of use, only the surface gloss of AAK hydraulic direction control valve does not change. In fact, when we sent out the hydraulic directional control valve samples, we were not 100% sure to meet this special requirement, because we used a new process to proofing. We know that the conventional nickel plating, chromium plating, zinc plating, blackening and other processes basically can not keep the same appearance after 2 years of use. We adopted electroless nickel plating. The principle of this process is to generate a coating on the metal surface by solution chemical reduction reaction, and the coating is amorphous. After treatment, the surface of the metal is smooth, corrosion-resistant and wear-resistant, and the coating film has few pores and uniform thickness. At the same time, the hardness of the heat treatment can reach HRC70. After confirming the order, Joseph privately reminded us several times that the surface finish treatment of large goods should be careful. His boss said that after this order was shipped smoothly, there would be more and more inquiries later, and his salary was raised by 2 levels. AAK hydraulic directional control valve is rust free and corrosion free. It is still the same as the new one after being used for 2 years.

Rex is a hydraulic valve wholesaler in Turkey. At the beginning of last year, their customer complained that the hydraulic cartridge relief valve, which has been used for less than 6 months, was stuck or worn, resulting in equipment shutdown. The original hydraulic cartridge relief valve manufacturer advised that under the equipment working condition of 450 bar, the hydraulic cartridge relief valve is likely to be abnormal, and the service life can be only guaranteed for 6-8 months. Rex realized that the hydraulic cartridge relief valve produced by this manufacturer was not reliable under high pressure. After checking with other hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturers, none of them was able to guarantee a service life of more than 1 year under 450 bar pressure. Rex was worried. Rex found AAK on Google. After staying at AAK website for more than 10 minutes, he found that AAK has hydraulic cartridge relief valve benchmarking HAWE, and is capable of high pressure resistant cartridge valves. He left us a message: Can the service life of AAK hydraulic cartridge relief valve be more than 1 year under 450bar working condition? After communication, it was learned that Rex was in a difficult position to purchase the hydraulic cartridge relief valve. I sent 6 cases of hydraulic cartridge valves with pressure resistance of 450bar for his reference. On the third day, Rex asked AAK to make samples per his drawing. He is open for the internal structure provided that the external dimensions were not changed, and the hydraulic cartridge relief valve had a service life of more than 1 year at 450bar. After 50 days, AAK sent 36 samples of hydraulic cartridge relief valve. 2 weeks after the samples were sent, Rex informed that AAK hydraulic cartridge relief valve worked normally on their equipment. Last week, Rex informed us via email that the equipment had been working for nearly 1 year without any customer complaint after being installed with AAK hydraulic cartridge relief valve. Their after-sales department is counting the number of the hydraulic cartridge relief valve that needs to be re-purchased. He asked me to wait for his further good news. This hydraulic cartridge relief valve can be safe under 450 bar high pressure for 1 year. In terms of material selection and material heat treatment, we follow the standards of HAWE, because AAK has engineer who has worked in HAWE for 13 years. At the same time, we have made 3 optimizations in the internal structure to challenge the high pressure. The optimized hydraulic cartridge relief valve has a buffering effect on the oil to avoid the impact of high pressure on the valve interior, reduce wear and avoid jamming, and has a 1 year of service life, which has been proved many times. 1. The hydraulic cartridge relief valve has an oil storage chamber and a buffer device inside the valve body, an adjusting nut outside the valve body, an adjusting screw cylinder inside, and a limit cavity, limit column, and a movable adjusting plate inside the adjusting screw cylinder. The screw connection between the adjusting screw barrel and the adjusting nut runs through the inside of the oil storage chamber. 2. The hydraulic cartridge relief valve has a built-in pressure regulating spring, one end is connected with a movable regulating plate, and the other end is connected with a piston. 3. The valve sleeve and threaded connection sleeve adopt the middle floating connection mode to avoid jamming. AAK hydraulic cartridge relief valve, the benchmark is HAWE, under 450 bar high pressure, it is safe for more than 1 year, welcome to try it! https://www.aakindustry.com/info-detail , /cartridge-relief-valves-aak525

This week, we’d like to introduce a hydraulic solenoid cartridge valve equivalent to HydraForce SV12-34. It is a solenoid operated, two position, three way, direct acting spool valve. Last January in 2022, a customer in Russia found AAK when looking for a hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer in China on Google. She sent us an inquiry for 10 pcs of HydraForce cartridge valve SV12-34, along with several other HydraForce standard parts. However, AAK did not have existing programming for SV12-34 at that time and did not quote. Instead, the customer placed trial order for the other models.   This January in 2023, the customer checked with us again if AAK is willing to develop SV12-34 as per their original samples. Although they can buy SV12-34 from other hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturers in China, they do not trust their quality. Because the quality of the other trial orders shipped by AAK last year was very satisfying, they want to develop SV12-34 with AAK. In March, the development was finished and delivered.   Last week, we were very happy to learn from the Russian customer that the E- SV12-34 Solenoid Cartridge Valve developed by AAK is running very smoothly, the quality is very stable. They are going to ask AAK to develop more and more new models.   AAK hydraulic solenoid cartridge valve E-SV12-34 two advantages: 1. Pressure Rating 207 bar (3000 psi), benchmarking HydraForce 2.

Gaylord comes from Holland and is an old customer of AAK hydraulic valve. Some time ago, he emailed me to ask if AAK could optimize a hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve. After communication, I learned that at the beginning of the year, they had an order for a hydraulic power unit for high-precision machine tools, which used a hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve. Gaylord chose an Indian hydraulic cartridge valve manufacturer to make samples, and the equipment debugging was not smooth. The hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve had unstable overflow liquid, forming a jet, especially under low pressure, the stability of the system was poor. Although the function test of the valve was normal, it was still necessary to optimize the hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve, but 2 weeks later, the original manufacturer still had no solution, and Gaylord contacted me. According to his hydraulic system schematic diagram and the drawing of the original hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve, AAK engineers found the hidden danger of the original structure. Gaylord sent the PO of the test order. After 50 days, AAK sent 10 samples of hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valves. A month later, Gaylord sent us an email. The equipment was adjusted smoothly. Under low pressure, the system was stable. The customer was also satisfied with the prototype. His engineers also admired the brains of AAK technical team. AAK hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve has good stability under low pressure conditions. The key lies in its unique structure: 1. The valve spool, spring, plunger and pressure regulating knob are successively installed in the cavity of the hydraulic cartridge relief valve body. The valve spool contacts the valve seat under the elastic force of the spring, and relies on the elastic force of the spring and the back pressure of the overflow port to balance the hydraulic pressure generated by the oil inlet. 2. The original poppet valve spool is changed into an integral ball type valve spool, and an annular gasket is set between the ball valve spool and the spring. The ball valve spool can automatically adjust the axial angle relative to the centering bearing, which improves the stability of the valve and ensures the low pressure stability of the hydraulic system. 3. Before assembly, the standard steel ball is used to punch the runner port and gasket port that contact the steel ball. The original wire seal is changed to ring seal to improve the sealing performance, so as to ensure the reliable contact between the gasket and the steel ball and realize the stable overflow function. AAK hydraulic direct acting cartridge relief valve, is also stable in low pressure, you can also try a small order! https://www.aakindustry.com/info-det , ail/relief-valves-aak450

AAK hydraulic pressure control valve is made of 100Cr2 bearing steel, with high hardness and high wear resistance. It also adopts distinctive heat treatment process, to ensure that the hydraulic valve has no cavitation. It takes only 2 weeks to solve the customer complaint and helps Erich out of the dilemma. Erich has been doing well in Linde company for several years. Recently, he was under great pressure due to a complaint. A hydraulic pump produced by Linde company went on strike after 8 months of use. The customer complained directly to the boss, who asked the after-sales department to find out the cause and solve it immediately. After inspection, the engineer found that mechanical damage had occurred on the metal surface of the pump, and the surface of the damage showed sponge like small holes, which should be caused by the hydraulic impact formed by the internal hydraulic system. At the same time, it was found that the hydraulic pressure control valve used in the system was the most serious, and no problems were found in other components. It was basically determined that the poor cavitation resistance of the hydraulic pressure control valve led to the strike. The boss asked Erich, who was responsible for the purchase of hydraulic pressure control valves, to re purchase hydraulic pressure control valves for these inoperable pumps within 20 days, to make sure no cavitation. Erich contacted the original supplier of hydraulic pressure control valve and informed him of the whole situation. The original supplier mentioned that before production, Erich didn't inform the current working condition. To meet this working condition, materials must be customized, which would not be allowed by the time, because it would take at least 40 days. Erich also contacted a number of hydraulic valve manufacturers and got the replies that they either could not meet the quality requirements or the time would not be enough. This is troublesome. It's too late for the 20 days of time frame given by the boss. Erich thought of AAK hydraulic valve, because he had a hydraulic pressure control valve sampled here last year, but didn't have any further contact due to AAK quotation was high. Erich asked by email whether AAK can solve the cavitation of hydraulic pressure control valve. According to the cavitation picture of the hydraulic pressure control valve provided by Erich and verifying the hydraulic working conditions, we replied that the materials used for this hydraulic pressure control valve need to be treated. However, AAK has inventory, because an American customer purchased similar hydraulic pressure control valves last month, we can send 4 samples of hydraulic pressure control valves within 14 days. After Erich received the samples of hydraulic pressure control valve, their engineers installed it for debugging and it can work normally. Erich asked us to prepare materials quickly. His boss asked to replace all the hydraulic pressure control valves in this batch to avoid further complaints from customers. At the same time, he asked us to ensure that the mass production should be stable and there should be no cavitation. The most important factor to avoid cavitation is the material selection of steel and the heat treatment of steel. According to the customer hydraulic working conditions, A AK selects 100Cr2 bearing steel and adopts carbonitriding heat treatment process. It is carburized at high temperature of 820-830 ℃ for 13 hours, then oil quenched, - 60 ℃ to - 70 ℃ cryogenic treatment and 150 ℃ to 160 ℃ tempering treatment. The whole molecular structure of the steel is uniform and the hardness can reach HRC68. After such heat treatment, the comprehensive properties are very stable, uniform hardness and good wear resistance. Wear resistance and high contact fatigue strength ensure no cavitation. AAK hydraulic pressure control valve, no cavitation, has the stability admired by customers, you can also give it a try! https://www.aakindustry.com/info-detai , l/hydraulic-pressure-control-valves- aak134

When I opened the mailbox this morning, I saw an email from Bruce, which should be a re-order for the hydraulic relief valve, because he asked about the durability of AAK hydraulic relief valve spool last week. Opening the e-mail, it is indeed the need for purchasing a large number of 420 hydraulic relief valves, and requiring 3 years of quality guarantee. Bruce is a purchaser of Konecranes in Finland. 3 years ago, a customer of his company complained that the crane was easy to depressurize during work, resulting in the inability of the crane to bear the force. Especially after the working temperature reaches 55 ° C, the pressure cannot go up. Field engineers believe that this is a problem of the hydraulic system, such as low pressure regulation of the hydraulic relief valve, wear of the hydraulic system, or oil pollution. No abnormality was found after inspection. Finally, it was determined that the fault occurred on the hydraulic relief valve. After disassembling the hydraulic relief valve, it was found that the cone valve spool was worn, affecting the sealing of the hydraulic system, so the oil pressure could not rise. The customer does not understand why the valve spool of this hydraulic relief valve is worn after less than 2 years of use. The customer requested to replace with a batch of hydraulic relief valves with durability of more than 3 years and use them on these 12 faulty cranes. At that time, Bruce contacted more than 10 hydraulic relief valve manufacturers and got reply that the warranty could not be achieved for 3 years. Some hydraulic valve manufacturers replied that they only have 50% confidence. This result embarrassed Bruce. The customer requirements for the hydraulic relief valve could not be implemented, how he should explain to the boss. I received message from Bruce on the company website of AAK (www.aakindusrty. Com): "can AAK really provide a 3-year warranty hydraulic relief valve? I replied directly: just give it a try then you will know. I can't make money with the trial orders of several samples, and you can't lose money. Maybe Bruce was stimulated and sent us the test order the next day for 4 hydraulic relief valves. Bruce also frankly told AAK that two other hydraulic valve manufacturers would also try the order at the same time. Their plan is that each factory will be tested for 4 samples, with a total of 12 hydraulic relief valves to meet the urgent needs of customer first. About 2 years after the samples were sent, we received email from Bruce again for another trial order of 8 hydraulic relief valves. I felt strange and thought that they actually didn't have big quantity order for hydraulic valves. Until last week, from his email, we learnt that they had tested the hydraulic relief valves provided by AAK for 3 years. Indeed, 3 years later, AAK hydraulic relief valves still worked normally, and the hydraulic relief valves provided by the other two manufacturers had faults in less than 2 years. According to the working conditions, we understand that the core of durability of the hydraulic relief valve from Bruce is the valve spool, so we use the bearing steel imported from Korea and use our brains in heat treatment. After hot rolling, the steel is spheroidized and annealed, and then cold drawn. The processed bearing steel has high hardness, high wear resistance and hardenability. It is difficult to find other steels to benchmark it. Wear resistance for 3 years is certain, and maybe there is no problem for 5 years. AAK hydraulic relief valve, impressed Bruce with its high durability. If you also encountered a hydraulic relief valve failure, just contact us to give it a try! https://www.aakindustry.com/info-detail/hy , draulic-relief-valves-aak133

Alvis is from Norway and has been in contact with AAK for 1 year. There were some inquiries for hydraulic manifold blocks, but no actual order. It was not until December last year that the trust door was completely opened. It took him 6 months for a special hydraulic manifold block, but it didn't work. AAK solved the problem with the first sample. A set of hydraulic manifold designed by Alvis will be exhibited in America. He selected a local hydraulic manifold block manufacturer that has cooperated for 3 years to try the sample, but the hydraulic system is unstable. The manufacturer advised that this hydraulic manifold block has many feedback oil circuits and control oil circuits, and the oil circuits is composed of small deep holes. The diameter of the damping hole is less than 1mm, and it is difficult to eliminate burrs for 100%, which may lead to blockage of the oil circuit. If the original design requirements of the hydraulic manifold block are not changed, the manufacturer would not be able to produce it. If the parameters are changed, the selling point of hydraulic manifold will be lost. Alvis is very distressed. He also tried to work with several other local hydraulic manifold manufacturers to make samples, but none of them is able to cooperate with him. In this way, 4 months have been wasted. Alvis wanted to try overseas hydraulic suppliers, and sent me an email. According to his hydraulic manifold block drawing, our technical team analyzed and discussed it, and concluded that if the original design was not improved, the burr hazard would still exist. Alvis seemed to think that AAK is unable to sample the hydraulic manifold block, so he did not have further contact with us. 1 month later, he came back to us again to discuss this hydraulic manifold block, and asked about our optimization plan. I realized that he was desperate, and told him that AAK did not need to change the parameters of the hydraulic manifold block, but only needed to increase the angle between the two planes greater than 150 °, but the best degree still needed to be explored. Alvis suddenly realized it and blamed me for not telling him earlier. I joked that he didn't give me a chance to tell him. After changing materials for 2 times, and adjusting the processing parameters for 4 times, it was determined that 158 ° would be the best angle. After 30 days, 3 hydraulic manifold blocks were sent out. 3 weeks later, Alvis told us that the hydraulic manifold was running stably, meeting the system requirements, and we just need to wait for the good news of the exhibition. He sighed that for this exhibition, he was in trepidation for 6 months, but did not expect that the first sample of AAK was successful. In the future, AAK will be his preferred supplier for hydraulic manifold blocks. This is also what I said before. Whether customers buy your products or not is not because of your poor price or long distance. The root cause is that the trust is not in place. AAK hydraulic manifold blocks, in regards to deburring method, the following 3 points are critical: 1. Select materials with small elongation and deformation hardening index to effectively suppress burr. 2. Optimize the valve body structure, the included angle between two planes shall be greater than 150 °, and the best degree shall be tested continuously. 3. Use high-pressure solution jet to remove burrs, use solution to weaken the magnetism of burrs, and then use the instantaneous impact force of liquid to ensure that the hydraulic manifold block is 100% burr free. AAK hydraulic manifold blocks, no burr, no pollution, no leakage, welcome to try! https://www.aakindustry.com/info-d , etail/hydraulic-manifold-blocks-aak390
