The Problem
What the plant was facing
The OEM was running valve qualification tests manually with analog gauges and paper records. Test consistency depended on the operator, and generating per-valve test certificates for customers was a full day of clerical work.
Our Solution
What we engineered
- LabVIEW-based test sequencer with hydro, pneumatic and leak modes
- NI DAQ for pressure, flow and displacement acquisition
- PLC-driven pneumatic clamping and safety interlocks
- PDF certificate auto-generation per test with graphs and pass/fail
- SQL archive keyed by valve serial number
