Global Electric Power Tech 2009 hosted a surprising guest in the central area of the show floor - a guest that survives through excessive heat, cold, salt, corrosion, severe beatings or throwing. Since many city construction planners attended the event, Ankuk's wonder valves were signed up to be used in their city construction projects due to their durability and cost effectiveness. Managing Director Tarek Abdel-Hamid from Egypt said, "I believe these reliable valves will contribute greatly to our water supply industry and chemical industry in the future. I especially noted the part that the Ankuk valves are salt-proof. I would definitely consider recommend these products to sewage disposal plants and wastewater disposal plants as well as to the regional areas that construct pumps and plants near salt water."
Core Technology
A sheet molding compound is the secret ingredient of the Ankuk Valve, the material that is considered to be their core technology. "Our new product is made with thermosetting resins. Our long devotion in research and development to this material led us to create a valve that doesn't drop a single tear neither at high pressure nor high temperature," COO Yoon Jong-dae said. Ankuk valves indeed resist up to 250 Celsius degree heat and 10 kg pressure. Ankuk's core technology gives remarkable internal and external corrosion resistance as well. Anything from acid to corrosion to sea water to heat - you name it, this valve can resist it. What is more impressive is its weight. This editor assumed that the valve had to be pretty heavy to withstand all heat and pressure as the product itself is promising many other features to resist against, yet Ankuk valves are actually lighter than previous valves. By all means, significant weight savings will reduce both installation and maintenance fees.
Why use Ankuk Valves
Does being terminator valves alone attract buyers Perhaps it is not that simple, because most rather want to use verified products rather than fascinating products. This means a growing company like Ankuk may struggle to find customers with a frontier spirit. "It has been a rough start for us, but we have gained trust over the years by leading national companies including KEPCO, Samsung Total, LG Chem, Hyundai HYSCO, POSCO, and Hanwha. With a full sponsorship of one of our clients, we were asked to exhibit our products here at the Global Electric Power Tech 2009 to reach out to the global markets," added Yoon. Ankuk's wonder valves raise productivity, reduce the cost of the administration of physical distribution, and stretch out the durability of the balls. This is why thermal power plants, nuclear power plants, and shipbuilding companies have been giving positive feedback and supporting the country to grow. Ankuk valves are proper for chemical processing plants since they do not rust from hydrochloric acid and sulfuric acid.
Automatic valves, manual valves, and ball valves for water works are the three major models of Ankuk Valves that are scheduled to be displayed at the global exhibition in the coming years.
