Who we are
S.p.A.,
founded in 1956, was the first company to manufacture
floating ball valves in Italy. The long experience
gathered during more than 50 years of activity ensures that
is one of the most famous and competitive companies
in the world.
's
factory is located in Urbisaglia (Macerata),
the centre of Italy in an industrial complex covering
32.000 square meters, 12.000 of which are
covered workshops. The factory consist of commercial, technical and engineering offices and of two extremely modern workshops,
the latest of which, 4200 square meters, 10 meters high, completed in February 2008, allows the production, assembly, testing, sandblasting
and painting of ball valves up to extremely large sizes and weights.
The design and production staff includes
highly qualified engineers with a long experince in all technical standards and meeting customer's special requirements. Modern design methods are employed
to analyse specific stresses and deformation limits of valve bodies and main valve components.
The manufacturing process is continually improved and changed using
the most advanced manufacturing technologies
such as: multi-function machining centres and
several computer controlled lathes. Special testing centers are used for testing of all products and are specifically used for high pressure
and large size valves.
Both vertical and horizontal testing machines as well as equipment used to determinate valve operating torques,
testing valves at low and high temperatures, allow 's prototypes to be checked and verified on site and 100% of production to be tested, checked and certified before leaving DAFRAM's plant.
