Isikhundla sikaMetso esihamba phambili embonini ekugayeni nasekugayeni ubuchwepheshe saziwa kakhulu kuwo wonke umphakathi wasezimayini, kodwa ubungcweti bamavalvu bawo bungase bungaziwa kahle.
U-Metso ubelokhu eklama izixazululo zamavalvu iminyaka engaphezu kwengu-90 njengengxenye yokukhiqiza kweQembu ukucubungula izimbiwa kanye nobuchwepheshe bephampu.Enye yeziqophamlando zeQembu kwaba ukusungulwa kwe-Neles Oy ngo-1956, egxile ezixazululweni zokulawula ukugeleza kwemboni ye-pulp kanye nephepha. I-Finland.
I-Neles® isibe yigama elidumile ezimbonini eziningi futhi yaziwa ngezisombululo zamavalvu ezicijile ezenziwe ngensimbi. Le nkampani iphinde yathola ibhizinisi le-Jamesbury® emashumini eminyaka adlule, yengeza izixazululo zamavalvu ahlala kahle asebenza kahle kuphothifoliyo yomkhiqizo.
U-Ville Kähkönen, umqondisi wokuphatha imboni yokulawula uketshezi e-Metso, utshele i-IM endaweni yefektri yenkampani i-Hakkila eduze kwase-Helsinki-Vantaa Airport e-Finland ukuthi kunomehluko ocacile phakathi kwemigqa emibili yomkhiqizo.
"Ama-valve e-Jamesbury asetshenziselwa amazinga okushisa angaphansi kuka-260 ° C," esho, enezela ukuthi ama-valve ahlezi ensimbi ye-Neles ayisinqumo esingcono kakhulu samazinga okushisa aphezulu noma acubungule imidiya ehlanganisa uketshezi olunamanzi kanye nezinto eziqinile njengesihlabathi.
Ukuvakashela imboni nokuzwa okuvela ku-Kähkönen no-Heikki Kärki, Abaphathi Bemboni, Ukucutshungulwa Kwezimayini Nezimbiwa, i-Metso Flow Control, i-IM ithole ukuthi mangaki ala ma-valve angenele imisebenzi yezimayini emhlabeni jikelele.
Iqiniso lokuthi inkampani ayenzi kuphela ama-valve kodwa futhi nama-actuator nezilawuli ezihlakaniphile iyenza ihluke kubaqhudelani abaningi abanikeza eyodwa kuphela noma zombili lezi zakhi.
Ngokuka-Kärki, endaweni yokucubungula amaminerali, ngokwesilinganiso, amavalvu angaba ngu-10,000 angafakwa ekusebenzeni okukodwa, ngalinye lisebenzela injongo ethile.
Utshele i-IM ukuthi kwakungewona nje ama-valve esango lommese we-Metso atholakala ngesikhathi sokuhlukaniswa kanye nezigaba zokucwengisiswa kwemisebenzi yezimayini - ngezinhloso zokuzihlukanisa endaweni yokugaya.
Lobu buchwepheshe obubanzi buqiniswa ukubheka ngokushesha inani lama-valve afakwe ngu-Metso phakathi kuka-2000 no-2018. Phakathi nalesi sikhathi, isizinda sokuhlinzeka ngenkampani sihlanganise lonke ngaphandle kwezwekazi elilodwa (ngaphandle kwe-Antarctica), ngezicelo ezihlanganisa lokho elikubiza ngokuthi “udaka, izinsiza kanye nezinsiza ezinzima”.
Njengenye yezinkampani ezimbalwa ezinganikela ngama-valve aphelele ahlanganisa ama-valve, ama-actuator nezilawuli zama-valve ahlakaniphile, i-Metso inekhono elincane lokwenza ama-valve ngokwezifiso ezimweni ezinzima, ezilumayo nezimuncu. bebelokhu bekhula eminyakeni yamuva, kusho u-Kähkönen.Kulezi zinhlelo zokusebenza, ama-valve ajwayelekile angahlala amasonto - ukucindezela kungase kudlule ibha engu-30, izinga lokushisa lingase lidlule ku-200 ° C, futhi ukugxila kungase kube ne-acidic kakhulu.
Ithimba lobuchwepheshe bezinto ezisetshenziswayo elinamashumi eminyaka okuhlangenwe nakho, okuhambisana nobudlelwano obuqhubekayo nabakhiqizi be-autoclave, kuvumela inkampani ukuthi iqhamuke nezixazululo zamavalvu ezihlinzeka ngezingubo eziqinile eziklanyelwe ukudlula ezinye izixazululo emakethe ye-autoclave ehlala isikhathi eside.
Inkampani iphinde yathanda ukugqamisa amakhono ayo edijithali endaweni yamavalvu ngesikhathi sokuvakasha.
I-Metso yethula i-NP™ series pneumatic positioners yayo yokuqala eminyakeni engu-50 edlule. I-Metso yethula isilawuli se-valve yedijithali, i-Neles ND9000, emuva ngo-1995, futhi kusukela kwethulwa umkhiqizo, inkampani yakhe abalawuli abahlakaniphile ukuze baqoqe idatha ukuze ihlaziywe nguMetso wangaphakathi. amaqembu noma ngamakhasimende ngokwawo, okwakamuva isilawuli sayo se-Neles NDX®.
Lezi zilawuli zithole idumela kangangokuthi abanye abakhiqizi bamavalvu bavame ukuzithenga ukuze bagcwalise ezabo izixazululo.
Isebenza ngokukhethekile ngamavalvu enziwe nge-Neles kanye nama-positioners ahlakaniphile, i-Hakkila ingenye ye-Metso Valve Technology Centres emhlabeni wonke. Imboni yayo i-Shrewsbury e-Massachusetts, e-USA, ibhekelela ukufunwa kwama-valve e-Jamesbury, kuyilapho isikhungo sayo e-Horgau, eJalimane, igxile kakhulu kuvemvane lwe-Neles olusebenza kahle kakhulu. ama-valve.
I-Chungju, eSouth Korea ibhekelele ama-valve embulunga ye-Neles, futhi izitshalo zayo ezimbili esifundeni sase-Mumbai e-India zigxile ekukhiqizeni ama-valve e-Jamesbury EasyFlow nama-Neles Scotch actuators ejoka ezimakethe zaseNdiya nezomhlaba jikelele.
Ngaphezu kwalokhu, inefekthri yesibili yase-US e-Minnesota (Fergus Falls), isikhungo sesevisi nokuhlinzeka eBrazil (Sorocaba), isikhungo sobuchwepheshe e-Shanghai, e-China, kanye nemikhiqizo yomhlaba wonke ye-Standard Neles ne-Jamesbury ekhiqizwa ngobubanzi. futhi iyaseviswa e-United States.Isikhungo sezobuchwepheshe eJiaxing, eChina, sizovulwa ngonyaka ozayo.
Njalo ngonyaka, i-Metso ihlinzeka ngamavalve angaba ngu-400 000 ezimbonini ezihlukene zenqubo. Ngaphezu kwalokho, i-Metso yaqeda ukulungisa ama-valve angaphezu kuka-20,000 kanye nokuvakasha kwezindawo ezingu-3,000. Iphinde yenza ukuvalwa kwama-valve okuhleliwe okuhleliwe okungaphezu kuka-250 ngonyaka - isici esibalulekile ekuqinisekiseni ukuthi ama-valve ayasebenza. isikhathi eside ngangokunokwenzeka.
Futhi, inkampani isanda kuthuthukisa inqubo yokukhiqiza ama-valve ukuze ikwazi ukusebenzisa ukuphrinta kwe-3D ezingxenyeni ezithile ze-valve.Lena yinqubo ehlinzeka ngezinketho zobunjiniyela ezazingatholakali ngaphambilini, njengokuthuthukisa izici ezithile zokuklama nokunciphisa isisindo sokuhlanganisa ama-valve.
