As the end users of pressure control valve become more complex and demanding, manufacturers and suppliers have been forced to find better, more efficient processes.
While engineers continue to be the forces behind new innovations, companies have started realizing the importance of other people within the company, who are needed to pinpoint what’s needed and to assure that the results meet customers’ demands. Additionally, a good R&D is about fostering creativity, which is much more effective when a group is working together. However, the challenge is to bring the group together and allow them to speak candidly to solve the problem.
The globalization of clients over the past five years has been rapid in pressure control valve manufacturing industries and they are now expecting reliable levels of service and support worldwide. As a result, companies in this industry will require established global suppliers to keep pace in the market and meet their growing and unique demands.

The Future
The introduction of intelligent pressure control valve positioners with internal capabilities for diagnostics, trending, alarm status, etc., is eliminating the need for external software in many cases. This approach is expected to be more fail-safe and secure for end users in the near future as setting changes must be made physically at the valve positioner. Moreover, maintaining valve history data in the positioner rather than in the distributed control system software ensures that valued information is not lost if the positioner is removed from service.
