Crane Process Flow Technologies Ltd has announced the launch of a service package that it is now offering to its bio-pharmaceutical customers. Saunders® has recognised that in almost every process system there exists a unique piping challenge that does not lend itself to conventional valve design. Saunders® has therefore developed a philosophy of working with customers to create unique one-piece machined valve designs named ‘Bio-Block’.
The key elements in producing Bio-Block valve solutions have been the development of advanced CAE (Computer Aided Engineering) design and manufacturing tools that enable our engineers to convert concept into reality, quickly and cost-effectively. Advantages over traditional manifold designs include reduced wetted area and deadleg, no internal fabrication welds, reduced documentation for installation and validation, faster and easier installation of process manifolds and enhanced product integrity.
