Services Offered By Valve Modification Companies

By Dennis Hughes


Valves are devices that controls the passage of fluids like gases, liquids, vapor, and slurries by using pipes or ducts. Its movement is towards one direction only. These have different types, these are the pinch, check, globe, ball, plug, gate, diaphragm, butterfly, pressure relief, and control valves. Each of the type has variations of models, features, and functionalities.

Different valve designs are being used in for many industry applications. A lot of valve modification companies have been offering this kind of alteration services. And because these are cost expensive, these should be specified with the right functions and provided with the right materials for the processing of liquid.

Nowadays, there are already a lot of new commodities that are being invented. And because of this, users may not be able to purchase it due to its financial viability. So in order to meet the demands of the users, valve industries are being created.

Modifications are made available in these industries for installation of some commodities which are not found in the original item. In history, supplies for these are stable since many users would order and purchase many items and buy extras for stock. Actually, many storehouses are being loaded with different variations of it. And this results to lower inventories of distributors because of huge stocking of special valves.

What the storehouses did was they started to stock only ordinary valves and let local shops install the new commodities to meet client demands. Special valves that are being offered by manufacturers are made in a trim shop or mod shop, this is what they call it in Houston TX. The jobs of shops include bore schedule changes, trim changes for steels, special packing and gaskets, and some more.

Since there are a number of orders made, the usual deliveries takes 4 to 6 weeks before it can be delivered. But now, it only takes less than a week for it to be delivered. Vertical integration must be applied to shops and they should respond immediately to problems.

Try going inside higher caliber shops and you will see manual and C N C or computer numerical control machines, heat treatment furnaces, welding, testing facilities, and AutoCAD soft wares. A computer tracking system is where these equipment are tied together. Welding engineers and mechanical engineers are also very important in shops.

There are instances when a company tries to modify a product which is already manufactured, and which is not acceptable to the user because of design is unsatisfactory. The design is made by manufacturers. The usual cause of unsatisfactory is not meeting the right requirements of the product. Companies that perform modification are very useful to users, manufacturers, and distributors.

The manufacturers would benefit since they can be able to focus on high production of items than those specials which slows the assembly, thus, making it longer to be produced. Another benefit for manufacturers is that they can receive critical and special valves on time and with the right price. Distributors can also benefit because they can spend less money by stocking special valves.
