Inspections and Quality Control
We have been an organisation following ISO 9001 principles and practices since 1999, and have mature systems and manufacturing processes in place. We nonetheless strive for continuous improvement and endeavour to achieve better product quality and better efficiency through the latest technology and quality control systems.
We are always challenged on the quality front by our customers, and to satisfy them we have a history of taking up some of the most stringent quality assurance plans and executing them with internationally renowned third-party inspection authorities.
Some of our quality assurance plans go beyond the requirements of the standard specifications and are considered industry benchmarks that many are yet to meet. All this is thanks to our R&D team.
In-house testing capability
Hydro Testing Facility
We have a state-of-the-art hydro and air testing facility to check the soundness of castings and for final testing of valves.
NDT Facility
We have in-house, state-of-the-art non-destructive testing facilities, including radiography viewing, ultrasonic testing, magnetic particle testing and dye penetrant testing, with ASNT-qualified manpower and ASNT-approved procedures.
Paint Testing Facility
We have an in-house paint shop with surface preparation equipment, a DFT meter, and adhesive testing procedures and equipment to meet the specific painting needs of our customers.
Special Tools and Fixtures for Dimensional Checks
We have a state-of-the-art facility for checking various dimensions of valves, including the parallelism and angular measurement of flanges.
Some of our quality achievements beyond engineering specifications
- Vacuum helium leak test for hard-seated valves, i.e. gate, globe and swing check valves, where we have achieved leakage rates of less than 1 × 10⁻⁷ using the hood method of testing.
- 100% radiography quality valves of non-ferrous metallurgy like Monel.
- Hard-seated valves in larger sizes such as 600 MM NB gate valves and globe valves tested for zero leakage.
- 100% chemical composition, hardness and surface finish checks on all metal-overlaid trim components.
- All the calibration requirements are regularly met.
- We have a history of around 25 years without a single quality complaint from our clients.
- Our four-generation relationship with our clients is a testament to our consistency in quality and our capacity to adjust to their changing needs.
- Our comprehensive and exhaustive internal quality control system is considered a benchmark by many process plants across India.
