| Message: | Last Friday, we received an annual order of 3,600 hydraulic needle valves from Paschalis, probably the new large-scale combine harvester of their company won a large order at the exhibition. Paschalis is from Greece and has been cooperating with AAK for 5 years. At the beginning of this year, the newly developed harvester of their company plans to appear at the agricultural machinery exhibition. In order to shorten the development time, they asked a local hydraulic needle valve manufacturer to make samples. The test run was not smooth, and the flow of the hydraulic system is unstable, resulting in the low accuracy of the equipment action. Their engineer judged that the processing accuracy of the orifice diameter of the hydraulic needle valves did not meet the standard. The hydraulic needle valve manufacturer replied that this is a large flow hydraulic needle valve, and the orifice is also a large aperture, which is difficult to process. At present, the equipment can only guarantee the accuracy like the sample.
Paschalis had to find a new supplier of hydraulic needle valves. And contacted more than 10 local manufacturers. Most of them said that they are not able to make the hydraulic needle valves with this kind of large aperture and accuracy below 1.0μm. Only one manufacturer can guarantee it, but it takes 3 months to develop, and will miss the exhibition. The engineer has pushed for the progress for several times, but Paschalis has not determined the manufacturer yet, so he is in a hurry.
