Layout And Placement Of 3-way Threaded Ball Valve Repair Site

The rational layout and arrangement of the 3 Way Threaded Ball Valve repair area reflect the management level and employee morale of the repair shop.
A row of multi-layered storage racks is located against the wall. The tool rack houses commonly used grinding tools, disassembly and assembly tools, and general tools.
The valve rack is used to store various spare parts for valves, as well as spare parts and accessories such as gaskets, packing, and common fasteners. The material rack houses cleaning tools, paints, and oils.
The repair bench is typically located in the center of the area and is primarily used for repairing small valves and parts and components of larger valves. It is equipped with a rotating flat-jaw vise and a small grinding plate. Drawers are located below for personal use, including various bench tools, small repair tools, grinding tools, and measuring tools. Cleaning utensils for cleaning valve components are located next to the bench.
A number of workbenches of various sizes, equipped with single-arm cranes, are also located in the center of the repair area to accommodate the disassembly, assembly, lifting, and repair of large and medium-sized valves. The repair site is equipped with equipment and tools such as a multi-purpose grinder, valve body grinder, gate and disc grinder, gasket shear, and drill press for repairing valve components, grinding sealing surfaces, and making gaskets. Large inspection plates, large grinding plates, and valve stem alignment trolleys are also available.

The repair site is equipped with manual and electric pressure testers to check the sealing and strength of repaired valves. Water, steam, and air sources are available for pressure testing, purging, drying and heating, and operating tools. Low-voltage lighting is also provided.

A simple overhead crane is installed above the repair site, which workers can operate from the ground for lateral movement. The electric hoist mounted on it can move longitudinally along the crossbeam to lift valves and large tools from various locations within the site.

The above example is a general repair shop model. Each site layout should be determined based on the specific scope of repairs, plant conditions, environmental factors, equipment, and personnel. In short, the layout should facilitate the connection between upstream and downstream processes and facilitate product transportation to improve repair efficiency.
