Manufacturing Process Flow of អន្តរជាតិ
The production of អន្តរជាតិ exemplifies precision engineering and rigorous quality control. Our multi-stage manufacturing process is designed to ensure superior product integrity, extended service life, and consistent performance under the most challenging industrial conditions.
Key Stages of Production:
- Material Selection and Procurement: We utilize high-grade alloys such as Stainless Steel (304, 316, Duplex), Carbon Steel, and specialized Nickel-based alloys (e.g., Inconel, Monel) selected based on the intended application's temperature, pressure, and corrosion resistance requirements. All materials undergo stringent spectrographic analysis to verify chemical composition against ASTM/EN standards.
- Casting/Forging: Depending on the component geometry and mechanical property requirements, bodies and bonnets are either precision-cast or hot-forged. Casting processes employ advanced techniques to minimize porosity and ensure uniform grain structure, while forging enhances material density and strength, particularly for high-pressure applications.
- CNC Machining: Components are machined to exacting tolerances using multi-axis Computer Numerical Control (CNC) equipment. This ensures precise dimensions for sealing surfaces, internal flow paths, and actuator interfaces, critical for optimal performance and leakage prevention. Surface finishes are meticulously controlled to reduce friction and wear.
- Heat Treatment: Various heat treatment processes, including annealing, normalizing, quenching, and tempering, are applied to optimize material properties such as hardness, ductility, and corrosion resistance, tailoring them for specific operational environments.
- Assembly: Skilled technicians assemble the components in controlled environments, adhering to strict assembly protocols. Each sub-assembly, such as packing glands and seating mechanisms, is checked for proper fit and function.
- Testing and Quality Assurance: Every unit undergoes a comprehensive suite of tests:
- Hydrostatic Shell Test: Performed at 1.5 times the maximum allowable working pressure (MAWP) according to API 598 or EN 12266-1 standards.
- Seat Leakage Test: Conducted with water or air at specified pressures to ensure zero or minimal allowable leakage rates.
- Fugitive Emissions Testing: Optional but frequently requested, complying with ISO 15848-1 or API 622/624 for severe service applications.
- Non-Destructive Testing (NDT): Radiography, Ultrasonic Testing (UT), Magnetic Particle Testing (MPT), and Liquid Penetrant Testing (LPT) are employed on critical components to detect internal flaws.
- Surface Treatment & Finishing: Protective coatings or passivation treatments are applied as required for enhanced corrosion resistance or aesthetic purposes.
- Final Inspection & Documentation: A final inspection verifies all specifications, and comprehensive documentation, including material test reports, certification, and operating manuals, is prepared.
Our adherence to international standards such as ISO 9001 for quality management and specific product standards like API 600, ANSI B16.34, and ISO 10434 ensures that អន្តរជាតិ products deliver an expected service life exceeding 15-20 years in typical applications, minimizing total cost of ownership for our clients.
