Cartridge Valves
We've expanded our cartridge valve
operation to provide customers with
enhanced design expertise and reduced
lead time by creating a dedicated
cartridge valve team, implementing a
new development process and by
purchasing new equipment.
Eaton has long been recognized as a
world leader in consultative design
expertise and technology. Given our full-
line capabilities, our engineers are
accustomed to developing complete
systems through the proper selection
and application of components and
integrated subsystems. With the new
focus on cartridge valves, we add even
more dimension to our design
capabilities.
Today, we're taking an additional step by
assigning each cartridge valve customer
a single contact who can address design,
service and even order needs. Further, a
dedicated team of design professionals
has been assembled specifically to
manage this segment of Eaton’s
business. The goal is to provide
customers with integrated design
expertise, fast response and optimized
circuits for applications in terms of
efficiency, integrity and value.
One key to Eaton’s ability to reduce
cartridge valve lead time is the use of
three-dimensional design and
manufacturing software. Engineering
design files are sent directly to the
manufacturing plant electronically.
Manufacturing software then interfaces
with the design file and programs the
milling and finishing machines that
produce the manifolds. Manual
programming and set up times on the
machines are reduced and errors are
minimized. Three-dimensional
installation models are available for all
Eaton cartridge valve assemblies and
integrated subsystems, to facilitate
customer installation as well as design.
Eaton’s new cartridge valve operation not
only provides the customer with total
systems capability and support but
component subassembly expertise and
support as well.
Key Features and Benefits
• Design flexibility
• Compact design
• Reduction in total life cycle costs
• Requires less plumbing resulting in:
u Reduced assembly time
u Lower installed costs
u Fewer potential leakage paths
u Less maintenance (fewer hoses and
fittings)
