AAK hydraulic needle valve, more expensive but 100% burr free

The email from Draper this morning made me in a good mood all day. I had two
bowls of rice at noon. He said that 5 months have passed since AAK supplied the
hydraulic needle valves in September last year, they have not received any
complaints from users. His boss finally accepted his suggestion: "AAK is the
preferred supplier for hydraulic needle valves, even if the price is 20% more
expensive". Draper, whom we met in 2019, is a purchasing veteran of Doedijns
company in the Netherlands. In 2019, he purchased 3 small batches of hydraulic
needle valves from AAK in 3 times. He was very satisfied with the quality and
service of AAK hydraulic valves, but in the recent two years of 2020 and 2021,
he basically just placed orders for the very difficult and small quantity of
hydraulic valves. Draper told the truth privately that he couldn't persuade the
boss to place a big order with AAK. The problem is the price. Sometimes the
price of AAK hydraulic valves is 20% higher than that of other manufacturers.
Only the orders that are out of the capacity other hydraulic valve
manufacturers will be placed with AAK.

Last July, Draper sent us an email with the subject of "the production time of
1200 hydraulic needle valves". Because he had never sent an inquiry for such a
big quantity of hydraulic needle valves, I thought that he sent the email to us
by mistake. After communication, it was learned that he finally persuaded the
boss to place big order with AAK even if the hydraulic needle valve is 20% more
expensive, because they don't want to waste time on the after-sales for the
hydraulic needle valves.

In the past 2 years, customers have complained more and more about the
hydraulic needle valves purchased by Draper. The complaints are basically about
some small details of the hydraulic needle valves. For example, the hidden burr
of the hydraulic needle valves in the hydraulic power system is not completely
cleaned, which affects the matching accuracy and assembly of various parts in
the system, as well as the tightness of the matching interface, resulting in
internal leakage. Some hydraulic needle valves are complained by users after
being used for even only 3 months. For many times, they needed to replace the
hydraulic needle valves for users with new ones, which wasted too much of time
due to after-sales and also interrupted the construction progress of users. The
1200 hydraulic needle valves purchased from AAK this time are the repeat order
for their old customer. The customer said that they will not accept the repair
of hydraulic power equipment within 6 months for any reason. Draper once again
suggested the boss purchase the hydraulic needle valves from AAK, because in
the past 3 years, there has never been any abnormal quality of any hydraulic
valves purchased from AAK within 12 months. After comparing more than 20
hydraulic valve manufacturers, AAK is his most trusted hydraulic valve
manufacturer. Perhaps his boss also knows that AAK hydraulic needle valve has
never been complained. Although the pre-sales cost from AAK is 20% more,
sometimes the after-sales cost of hydraulic needle valves purchased from other
hydraulic valve manufacturers may exceed 20%. The boss finally agreed with
Draper’s opinion. This time, the large order of hydraulic needle valves will
be placed with AAK even if the price is 20% more expensive. Also, in the
future, AAK will be the first choice for their hydraulic valves.

The reason why Draper is not worried about the burr of AAK hydraulic needle
valves is that he knows that AAK has the unique burr removal process that most
other hydraulic valve manufacturers can't do. Firstly, the accurate position of
the burr is determined, and the burr is removed by high-pressure solution jet.
Then, there is one more step to re-check the residual burr that the other peers
will not do. The burr part is rechecked by endoscope C50. If there are still
residual burr, clean it again and recheck it again until it is completely
eliminated. This is a detail awareness lacked by other hydraulic valve
manufacturers, and also the reason why AAK can achieve 100% free of burrs. AAK
endoscope equipment uses the number of CCD pixels and optical fiber conduction
to automatically adjust the brightness during detection. It performs 360 degree
detection on each hole in the valve body and clearly grabs each hidden burr, so
as to ensure that each hydraulic needle valve is 100% free of burr residue.

AAK hydraulic needle valve is unique in detail inspection. Welcome to have a
small try!
