Press tool manufacture at PRV covers simple blanking tools through to complex multi stage tooling. Tools are built and tested before they leave the toolroom. PRV Engineering has been trading from Pontypool, South Wales since 1986 and now runs a well equipped 54,000 sq ft facility.
PRV started life making tamper proof lid assemblies for the metal packaging industry, and the toolroom skills from those days never left. Today the toolmakers build and test simple and multi tool punch and press sets, from basic blanking tools to complex progression tooling, plus forming tools, die sets and tool spares. Existing tooling is refurbished, maintained on a routine schedule or repaired in an emergency, with a collection and delivery service to keep downtime to a minimum.
Good press tooling pays back many times over in consistent parts and low scrap. Poorly made or neglected tools cause burrs, split pressings and unplanned stoppages. Working with a toolmaker who can build new, refurbish old and respond quickly in a breakdown keeps your press shop productive. PRV covers all three.
PRV serves a broad spread of industries including defence, medium to high voltage switchgear, rail, high performance automotive, oil and gas, pharmaceutical, petrochemical, food processing, aerospace, actuation, power generation, mechanical handling and valves. Whatever the sector, the standard is the same.
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.
