HydraForce is both a supplier of custom integrated circuit manifolds and a
supporter of our Distributors and customers who design and fabricate their
own manifolds.
HydraForce System Manifolds
Our
custom integrated manifolds are the highest quality in the world.
Manifold surfaces are fly-cut to assure squareness and exact sizing
where precise location control is required.
Every
manifold supplied by HydraForce goes through a minimum of four cleaning
and deburring operations, including thermal-deburring.
All
aluminum manifolds are anodized for cleanliness, added surface hardening,
and corrosion resistance. Ductile iron and steel manifolds are zinc
plated.
A
customer/product-specific assembly control plan and an assembly drawing
are prepared for every manifold product.
Every
U.S. manifold is hydraulic function tested to a documented
customer/product-specific test procedure. Manifolds produced at our U.S.
and U.K. facilities conform to the requirements of ISO 9001 and QS 9000
Certified Standards.
HydraForce will mount customer specified fittings or other
components not of our manufacture on request where feasible.Support Services to Manifold Makers
HydraForce is pleased to offer assistance to local integrated
circuit designers and suppliers.
HydraForce offers our AutoCad-based library at nominal cost
to users of our hardware. The library includes product shapes, circuit
symbols, cavities, ports, and many other features which facilitate
manifold design or service documentation. In addition, the library can be
translated into other formats to be read into other CAD software.
HydraForce Certification. Any manifold supplier may request
an audit by HydraForce as a step to formal HydraForce Certification as a
qualified producer. Candidates will be required to demonstrate standard
procedures utilizing advanced quality planning concepts, SPC, gauge and
equipment management systems, manifold assembly control plans, etc.
Cavity Forming Tools. We inventory standard general-purpose
tools which are suitable for limited production of aluminum or steel
blocks. High production carbide-tipped tools are available on special
order. We offer these tools at nominal cost and are pleased to supply tool
drawings on request at no cost.
Manifold Accessory Hardware. We are pleased to provide our
customers with a variety of associated hardware, commonly used in custom
integrated manifold design, often difficult to obtain cost-effectively in
lower quantities: Pressed-in plugs; SAE and NPTF plugs; Orifice discs;
Cavity plugs; Screen cartridges.
