Approval names reflect SMD Valves’s published certification scope. Buyers should request current copies and verify validity, product scope and issuing body before award.
OEM / ODM delivery model
One project workflow from specification to release
The workflow is defined around the buyer’s data sheet, drawings, applicable standards, inspection plan and required document package.
- 01
Requirement review
Valve type, medium, size, pressure class, materials, standards, drawings, inspection points and document requirements are consolidated.
- 02
Engineering definition
Construction, trim, sealing, actuation, interfaces, marking and the document list are confirmed before release.
- 03
Sample or first article
Tooling, samples or first-article verification can be agreed for new configurations or private-label programs.
- 04
Controlled production
Incoming material, machining, assembly, NDT when specified and pressure testing follow the approved requirement set.
- 05
Documented release
Final marking, packing and the agreed manufacturing record package are checked before dispatch authorization.
Engineering definition
Turn service conditions into a manufacturable valve requirement
SMD Valves’s engineering scope starts with the project specification. Analysis methods and calculations are confirmed only when included in the agreed technical scope.
Material selection support
Align body, trim, seat and sealing materials with pressure, temperature, corrosion, abrasion and low-temperature requirements.
Actuation & accessories
Coordinate manual, pneumatic, electric or hydraulic actuation with available connection and control requirements.
Manufacturability review
Check dimensions, machining access, welding, assembly and inspection feasibility before production release.
Manufacturing sequence
Production capability shown stage by stage
Real factory images connect the capability statement to visible equipment, work areas and products.
STEP 01
Material receiving
Identification, document and surface-condition review before material release.
STEP 02
Material preparation
Organized casting and forging areas support controlled issue to production.
STEP 03
CNC machining
Machining centers produce bodies, bonnets, balls, stems and related valve components.
STEP 04
Welding & special construction
Welded valve constructions and related operations are completed in defined production areas.
STEP 05
Assembly & identification
Components are assembled, identified and prepared for inspection against the approved requirement set.
STEP 06
Pressure testing
Shell, seat and functional tests are completed according to product and project requirements.
QA / QC evidence
Inspection capability linked to records
The exact inspection route is project-dependent. Applicable methods, acceptance criteria, hold points and witness requirements should be fixed in the approved ITP.
PMI / material verification
Portable spectrometry can be applied when material verification is specified.
Dimensional inspection
CMM and dimensional instruments support critical component and interface checks.
Ultrasonic examination
UT can be included for applicable material or project inspection requirements.
Surface NDT
Dye-penetrant or magnetic-particle examination can be specified for relevant components.
Pressure test equipment
Dedicated pressure-test equipment supports shell and seat verification.
Fire-safe test capability
Fire-safe testing documentation is supplied only when included in the agreed product or project scope.
| Control area | Typical verification | Evidence for the project file |
|---|---|---|
| Material identity | MTC review, heat-number traceability, PMI when specified | Material certificates, traceability record, PMI record |
| Dimensions | Drawing dimensions and interface checks | Dimensional inspection record |
| Surface / volumetric NDT | PT, MT or UT when required by the agreed ITP | NDT report and operator records as applicable |
| Pressure & leakage | Shell, seat and functional testing to the applicable product standard | Pressure and leakage test report |
| Coating & marking | Color, nameplate, body marking and visual release checks | Final inspection and marking record |
| Customer / third-party witness | Hold and witness points defined before production | Signed inspection release or witness record |
Project documentation
Agree the deliverable index before production
Document availability depends on the product, project, inspection plan and commercial scope. The RFQ should identify required approvals, reports and release records.
