1. Support for customisation and small-batch production
The pump and valve industry often requires customised products based on specific operating conditions (e.g., high temperatures, corrosive media). The rapid changeover and flexible production characteristics of CNC machine tools enable them to efficiently complete small-batch orders.
Reverse engineering to repair old pumps: For old pumps and valves with lost design drawings, CNC machine tools can directly machine replacement parts after generating models via 3D scanning, thereby extending equipment service life.
Processing of special materials: For complex components made of materials such as corrosion-resistant stainless steel and Hastelloy, CNC machine tools offer high stability and tool adaptability.
2. Driving smart manufacturing and digital transformation
The integration of CNC machine tools with digital systems helps pump and valve companies achieve intelligent upgrades:
Smart production line integration: Zigong Zigao Valve Co., Ltd. has purchased high-end CNC machine tools and combined them with welding robots to build an automated production line, improving production efficiency and productqualification rate.
3. Reducing production costs and resource waste
Optimising material utilisation: CNC machine tools reduce scrap waste through precise programming, with significant benefits particularly in the processing of precious metals (such as titanium alloys).
Reducing reliance on manual labour: Automated processing reduces labour costs while avoiding scrap rates caused by operational errors.
