The Value of Value Engineering

The Value of Value Engineering

The word “Value Engineering” is interpreted in various ways among engineers. In my opinion, Value Engineering is Challenging every resource that is put into a product or process to find a solution.

Here is a case-study about if done right, value engineered product could find global acceptance. A product designed in USA, manufactured in UK, integrated, and tested in India, won an award for Value Engineering at India’s largest Construction Equipment manufacturer – JCB. The product is RVD58-20.

What makes RVD58-20 acceptable globally?

1.?????HydraForce has more than 30 years of experience in compact hydraulics.

2.?????It’s silent – regulates pressure with minimum noise.

3.?????Stable – with dampened nose.

4.?????Designed for manufacturing – it is built in automated lines with zero human touch.

5.?????Quality – Automation; no room for human error.

6.?????Quantity – HydraForce is world’s largest cartridge valve manufacturer.?

We already use the RVDs in some projects here at Hydraulic Solutions, this new generation really has better performance than the other RVs.
