PRV Engineering Watch with Keen Interest as New Energy Flowers Blossom Forth

PRV Engineering Keenly Observe as New Energy Flowers Blossom Forth

PRV Engineering are very conscious of the amount of energy that many of their engineering machining processes consume. With energy being a precious and limited resource, recent news of the blossoming of a new man made GeS energy storing flower has aroused great interest, not only in engineering circles, but in the world at large.

The new GeS nanoflowers are the result of recent research undertaken by the North Carolina State University, and they could have a significant impact of the shape of future energy storage. The greatest energy source is of course the sun. It’s a virtually limitless source of supercharged power. The only problem is in harnessing it, which is where these new ‘flowers’ come into the equation.

PRV Engineering Salute the Success of the Olympic’s Opening Ceremony

PRV Engineering Salute the Success of the Olympic’s Opening Ceremony

PRV Engineering are one of the UK’s top high precision engineering service providers. But high precision engineering is not as a rule, something that is at the forefront of most people’s thoughts. But with the stunning show that was the superb opening ceremony of the London Olympic Games, all Brits were justifiably proud of the quality innovative engineering that provided the wherewithal to stage what many are calling the greatest show on Earth.

Over 62,000 people were present in the stadium to witness the spectacle, which was also watched on TV by a global audience estimated to have been in the region of over 1 billion people. Given such unprecedented viewing figures, it would have been an absolute catastrophe if one of the smoking chimney mechanisms had failed, causing a chimney not to rise, or to stop half way through its emergence. No, the engineering, not just for the chimneys, but for all of the moving components, had to be spot on – fail-proof in actual fact.

CAD System Development – A New Breed is on the Way

CAD System Development – A New Breed is on the Way

CAD system history was made when AutoCAD first hit the market back in 1982. It revolutionised the design and drawing industry. A complex drawing that would have taken a top draftsman many hours to piece together could suddenly be completed in a fraction of the time, and with far greater accuracy too. All design draftsmen in all industries now use CAD systems, including the designers at PRV Engineering, the phenomenally successful engineering high precision machining specialist based in Pontypool, South Wales.

Research teams at both the Open University and Leeds University, who are studying CAD system development, have been looking at the way designers read their drawings, with particular emphasis in the reader’s eye movements. It seems that by tracking these eye movements via a built-in camera, future CAD systems could then be designed to suggest shapes for the designer to incorporate within the drawing.

Quality is the Number 1 Prerequisite says PRV Engineering

Quality is the Number 1 Prerequisite says PRV Engineering

Quality is the number 1 prerequisite when you drill down to the roots of success. So says Simon Jones, owner and director of PRV Engineering Ltd, one of the fastest growing success stories in the engineering machining services sector in recent years.

The reason that PRV maintain that quality is the number 1 prerequisite, is that it underpins everything else. It doesn’t matter how quickly you can get the job done. Nor does it matter that the price is the cheapest available. If the product, or the service that you supply as a manufacturing and installation engineering services provider does not meet the specification, or the client’s expectations, the other commercial factors are irrelevant. Who better than PRV to know?

Metalwork Fabrication at its Very Best from PRV Engineering

Metalwork Fabrication at its Very Best from PRV Engineering

Metalwork Fabrication is a skilled, specialist operation, and not one that enough people first associate with PRV Engineering. Maybe that’s because our expertise in other engineering services such a deep hole drilling get more publicity. But here at PRV Engineering, we offer a complete metalwork engineering service that includes the very best in metalwork fabrication.

It might come as some surprise to learn that our metalwork fabrication department regularly turns out a whole range of beautifully finished, fabricated metal products that include:

Deep Hole Drilling – The Stuff Dreams are Made of?

Deep Hole Drilling – The Stuff Dreams are Made of?

Deep hole drilling, (sometimes referred to as Gun-drilling), is a specialist machining operation that requires a specialist engineering company to carry it out. It is used when high precision round bores are crucial. The process produces holes that can be controlled within very tight tolerances. It gives far greater accuracy than conventional drilling methods ever will.

PRV-Engineering are one of the few skilled engineering service suppliers to offer a deep hole drilling facility here in the UK.  The service can be supplied as an integral part of an overall manufacturing project. It can also be offered as a sub-contracted service for clients who either do not have the in-house capability themselves, or who have, but do not have the capacity.

Finishing with a Flourish – Protecting Our Reputation and Yours

Finishing with a flourish might sound a little flamboyant. But precision engineering isn’t exactly the sexiest of subjects, so please allow us at PRV Engineering a little leeway, and an opportunity to indulge ourselves!

Finishing any engineering job properly is just as important as any other operation along the production cycle. You’ll have gathered by now that we are talking about engineering finishing rather than simply closing down the job file and archiving it away. No, the sort of finishing that we allude to in this context is painting, both wet paint and electro powder coat.

PRV Engineering have come a long way since our lowly beginnings, when we first set up in 1986 manufacturing tamper proof Lids for the Metal Packaging Industry. We are now one of the leading suppliers of engineering services in Europe, and the journey has been long, and arduous, but ultimately rewarding.

Onsite Installation-Maintenance – PRV Engineering’s Ultimate Tour de Force

Onsite installation-maintenance is a facility that helps to turn an engineering service provider like PRV Engineering, from an excellent choice of supplier, into a great one. Design and manufacture are great skills to have, and we are proud to be able to boast that we have both in abundance. But going to another organisation’s site, and carrying out quality onsite intallation-maintence work under demanding circumstances, is not something that many engineering companies are capable of doing.
First of all, carrying out on site installation-maintenance work itself requires great knowledge, skill, and ability, and not just a small amount of confidence in your own ability. But you’ve also got to have the right mindset. When your engineers are out there in the big wide world, they are representing your business. It’s therefore very important that as well as possessing the requisite skills and experience, they also know how to deal with the client too. And if our clients are anything to go by, they don’t suffer fools gladly. So we ensure that our engineers are polite, display good manners, and act with propriety at all times.

5 Axis Machining – CNC Engineering at its Most Exacting by PRV Engineering

5 Axis Machining – CNC Engineering at its Most Exacting by PRV Engineering

5 Axis machining is the one of the most advanced components of Computer Numerical Control, (or CNC for short as it is more popularly known in the engineering world), metal engineering. CNC machining has been around now for several decades. It heralded the arrival of pre-programmed automation on a scale of accuracy hitherto unknown. Hardly surprising then that PRV Engineering, one of the engineering industry’s top exponents of top quality engineering services, should be at the forefront of this technology; not only here in the UK, but across mainland Europe too.

As engineering technology progressed, it was only a matter of time before machining in all available planes became a possibility. Having computerised control that allows the pre-programming of very complicated operations in all five axis, has now been taken to the ultimate level with some stunning 5 axis machinery coming onto the market – none better that PRV Engineering’s travelling vertical column machinery centre, the Mazak VTC800/30SR.

One-Stop-Shop – PRV Engineering Turn the Dream into a Reality

One-Stop-Shop – PRV Engineering Turn the Dream into a Reality

The One-Stop-Shop is many buyers’ dream of simplifying their purchasing workload; especially in the engineering industry, where in-depth industry knowledge is critical, and hard-won job experience is essential. It’s perhaps one of the reasons that all too often, many companies that claim to offer a one-stop-shop service fail to deliver, and simply do not live up to expectations. But here at PRV Engineering, we are the exception to the rule. We always deliver; and not just in the sense of meeting critical deadlines; we deliver top quality too!

The problem for many companies that aspire to becoming a one-stop-shop supplier is that they turn themselves into a Jack of all trades. But in the engineering supply arena, being a jack of all trades just doesn’t cut the mustard; especially in the fields that PRV Engineering are primarily involved in, namely: The Railway Industry, The Busbar Industry, and the Deep Hole Drilling Industry. In these specialised engineering fields in particular, being a “Jack” is simply not good enough, you need to be the Ace – and we are!
