Message: | At 05:10 this morning, I was listening to music and browsing emails. Billy, who had no news in 9 months, sent an email. Without reading the email, I could guess that the hydraulic check valve developed by AAK for 3 months last year had a result. Opening Billy's e-mail and it is an annual order of 5,000 hydraulic check valves at one time, with about 500 hydraulic check valves delivered every month. Billy is from a hydraulic equipment company in the United States, he has purchased a small number of high-pressure resistant hydraulic check valves from AAK in the past. At the beginning of last year, his company received complaints from a customer that its high-power bulldozers were prone to weak starting of the hydraulic system after being used in less than half a year. The after-sales engineer found that the hydraulic check valves leaked and can not maintain the pressure and caused the problem.
Billy contacted the original manufacturer of the hydraulic check valves, and manufacturer advised that the system pressure of the high-power bulldozer exceeded 450bar, and the opening and closing frequency was also high. When the hydraulic check valve was in the high-pressure state above 450bar, the valve spool was worn quickly, and the service life could only be guaranteed as 1 million times. Therefore, it was normal to replace the hydraulic check valves every half a year. If you want a hydraulic check valve with a service life of 2 million times, you can only purchase it from German HAWE. Billy has no choice but to make do with the hydraulic check valves of the original manufacturer first, but the after-sales cost every half a year is really unbearable. Maybe other manufacturers can offer hydraulic check valves with service life more than 1 million times. Billy began to contact other factories, including AAK.
After receiving Billy's email, AAK engineers had reached a conclusion according to the hydraulic check valve drawings and bulldozer working parameters. |
