CNC turned hydraulic components such as glands, pistons, end caps and rods need precise diameters and smooth finishes to seal properly. PRV turns them to drawing in steel, stainless and bronze. Established in 1986, PRV Engineering operates from a 54,000 sq ft precision engineering facility in Pontypool, South Wales.
PRV turning capacity runs from 250mm diameter x 500mm long with simultaneous dual axis machining, through 350mm diameter lathes with 70mm bar feed, sub-spindle processing and Y and C axis live tooling, up to 600mm diameter x 2600mm long. Live tooling means flats, cross holes and milled features are done in the same set up. CAD/CAM programming gets even awkward profiles on the machine quickly, and every lathe is backed by in-house inspection.
Turned parts look simple, but concentricity, thread quality and surface finish make or break them. The right lathe for the job matters too. Bar fed machines suit repeat work, live tooling saves secondary operations, and big chucks handle large diameters. PRV has all three, so each job goes on the machine that gives the best result at the best price.
Actuation systems depend on accurate bores, true shafts and smooth surfaces. PRV machines, deep hole drills and finishes actuator components, cylinders and rams for hydraulic, pneumatic and electric actuation customers.
Materials range from everyday mild steels through to stainless, aluminium, copper and exotics such as Monel, Inconel, Hastelloy and titanium. PRV caters for one-offs, rapid prototypes and large batch production, and can hold stock for customers to call off in line with Kanban, VMI, consignment and JIT arrangements.
Every order follows a controlled route. Drawings are reviewed, materials are sourced with certification, work is planned across the shop floor and parts are inspected before dispatch. Customers get one contact who knows the job from quote to delivery.
Quality sits at the top of the agenda, with a zero tolerance policy on rejects. Work is completed under BS EN ISO 9001:2015 and BS EN 1090 EXC3, and PRV also holds ISO 14001 and ISO 45001. With every major process in-house, problems are caught early and fixed fast.
