DOMIN CHOOSES RENISHAW AM SYSTEM FOR ULTRA-EFFICIENT HYDRAULIC VALVE PRODUCTION

Renishaw has supplied its RenAM 500Q additive manufacturing (AM) system to Domin's new Technology Centre near Bristol, UK.

DOMIN CHOOSES RENISHAW AM SYSTEM FOR ULTRA-EFFICIENT HYDRAULIC VALVE PRODUCTION

Fluid power specialist Domin will use Renishaw's RenAM 500Q additive manufacturing (AM) system to design and manufacture a competitive range of servo proportional hydraulic valves, aiming to save the industry one gigatonne of CO2e by 2030.

Metal AM allows Domin to design complex geometries with internal features, such as highly efficient stiff structures, that would not be possible using conventional subtractive manufacturing methods. Now, Domin can produce single parts with a good strength-to-weight ratio, while also reducing waste. Domin has also combined AM with other innovations like high-speed motor control, modern electronics, big data and connected technology, to create a range of four servo proportional hydraulic valves.

Domin designed the new range of high-performance hydraulic valves to satisfy the rigorous demands of control systems in industries including automotive, aerospace and manufacturing. Domin will use Renishaw's RenAM 500Q system to build the valves at its new Technology Centre in Pucklechurch, near Bristol, where it is consolidating its manufacturing from one Polish and two UK facilities.

Renishaw's 500Q system also features an intelligent gas flow system that provides superior removal of process emissions from the laser path, resulting in a stable processing environment that has measurably driven up quality standards to levels not previously achieved with metal AM technologies.
