The ideas from research and development are turned into products by the SAMSON manufacturing division to exceed customer requirements.
One of the design criteria is the modularity and interchangeability of standard SAMSON components. SAMSON offers a great variety of modular products.
For example our standard valve series, available in seven basic nominal sizes offers 20,000 different combinations with individual characteristics.
Flexibility in accommodating specific customer requests and fast delivery give the customer an additional advantage that has its roots in the
SAMSON marketing strategy. Due to detailed production planning and logistics, we have been able to reduce the production lead times to only a
few weeks even for special product versions.
SAMSON has been continuously upgrading the manufacturing process to be more cost effective and environmentally friendly. In addition,
product reliability continues to increase while the production time has been reduced.
The computerized galvanizing process has a capacity of 9,000 components passing through 40 stations. The automatic priming process handles
up to 10,000 kg (14,000 lbs) per day. The resulting effluent passes through our own treatment plant that meets the most stringent government standards.
Equally high environmental standards are reached in the paint shop with its automatic powder coating line. This process uses environmentally friendly epoxy and powder coatings.
It is now standard practice at SAMSON that machining centers are used in the production of valve bodies. Even valves with a nominal size of DN 400 (NPS 16)
can be handled completely in this type of production center.
All procedures and equipment, including the newest types of welding robots, are integrated into a computer-driven system that ensures constant high quality of all SAMSON products.
