ENGINEERING
Engineering is responsible
for maintaining and
applying sound design
concepts to all current and
new products. Dyna-Flo is
also a member of APEGGA
(The Association of
Professional Engineers,
Geologists and
Geophysicists of Alberta).
ENGINEERING
Our Engineering
department uses
sophisticated
computer aided
drafting and
design software
to help keep us
on the cutting
edge of our
industry.
ENGINEERING
Process conditions are
simulated in our Test Lab
allowing us to perform field
testing on new designs.
PURCHASING
Our suppliers and their quality programs are audited and
evaluated for compliance to our strict quality and delivery
requirements.
Dyna-Flo Purchasers
procure items only from
approved vendors. All
item details, such as
vendor, material ASTM,
order quantity, drawing
number, size, and
schedule are listed and
tracked with our
sophisticated enterprise
resource planning
software.
PURCHASING
PURCHASING
Vendors are required to provide a
material test report (MTR) for all raw
materials and major components as
well as a certificate of compliance.
A Dyna-Flo inspection and test plan
follows the parts through the
manufacturing process.
RECEIVING
Incoming materials and
components are
segregated until all
appropriate documents
are combined and
matched to the work
order.
RECEIVING
Vendor supplied
products and materials
are checked against our
purchase order for
compliance.
RECEIVING
Vendor supplied
material test reports
are checked against
applicable standards
such as ASTM for
compliance.
HEAT CODE LOG BOOKS
QUALITY
CONTROL
Once approved the material
test reports for all incoming
raw materials will be assigned
a special code number for
easy identification and
storage.
QUALITY
CONTROL
Valve body and bonnet castings are subjected to additional inspection. Visual inspections are performed as per MSS-SP55. Dimensional inspections (such as body wall thickness) conform to ASMEB16.34 as well as approved engineered drawings.
QUALITY
CONTROL
Measuring instruments
are calibrated to a
standard in
accordance with our
Q.C. manual and are
also tagged for
traceability.
QUALITY
CONTROL
Once the raw material
casting, or vendor
supplied component
has been inspected
and approved, it is
placed into active
inventory.
MACHINING
Production planning
generates production
orders as required by
sales demand and
these documents are
printed and included
with raw materials
before proceeding to
the production floor.
MACHINING
Each step of the routing
contains instructions and
sign-off-blocks for machinists
and inspectors to initial
indicating that they have
completed each operation as
instructed.
Sign-off-blocks might
include such things as
turning, milling, heat
treatment, NDE, welding,
and final inspection.
The finished
machined part
goes through a
final inspection
in our Q.C.
department.
Dimensions are
checked against
approved
drawings.
MACHINING
Parts that have
completed the
manufacturing
process and are
approved and
documented are
then entered into
our active
inventory.
MACHINING
ASSEMBLY
Every Dyna-Flo
product is
assembled to
customer
specifications.
A bill of materials
is kept on file for
each sales
order for future
reference.
ASSEMBLY
Valves, actuators and
instruments are
assembled and calibrated
to required specifications.
These specifications are
verified through our
quality control processes.
All valves are seat tested according to Dyna-Flo procedure DF22-
QP as per FCI 70-2. All valves are subjected to a hydro-static shell
test according to Dyna-Flo procedure DF03-QP as per ASME
B16.34.
ASSEMBLY
All test gauges are
calibrated periodically
as described and listed
in our Quality manual.
ASSEMBLY
ASSEMBLY
Technicians record the results of all tests and examinations
(some of which include heat numbers and flange rating
stamps) of a valve on the sign-off-blocks contained in the
sales order.
ASSEMBLY
All Dyna-Flo
products are
protected with
the highest
quality industrial
coatings.
Q.C. personnel at this point
perform one final check to
make sure the Customers
requirements match the
final product as stated on
the sales order.
ASSEMBLY
WELDING
All welding processes
are performed using
qualified weld
procedures. Dyna-Flo
maintains procedures
and qualified welders
for all common
materials. Exotic alloys
are subcontracted to
local shops.
Applications of most
hard facing are
performed in house.
SHIPPING
The finished
control valve is
strapped to a pallet
and protected.
SHIPPING
Then the product is
shipped to our customers
together with a package of
documents that includes a
packing list, testing and
examination results, mill
certs and NDE as
requested. Commercial
invoices are complete with
NAFTA numbers if
required for export.
NON-
CONFORMANCES
At any time during the
manufacturing process, any
Dyna-Flo employee is trained to
create a non-conformance
report (NCR) for any part,
process or assembly that does
not meet design specifications.
NON-
CONFORMANCES
The NCR document lays out in steps what the problem is, what can
be done to resolve the problem, the actual repair or resolution of
the problem, and the corrective actions that will take place to solve
the same problem in the future.
