What is AI in valve diagnostics and digital services?

Artificial Intelligence is rapidly entering the world of valves. AI is not intelligent as such. It learns from what has happened before. It develops itself when presented with relevant information. Our unique approach combines the deep expertise and insight of our dedicated service personnel with the latest advances in digital tools and technologies, including AI.

Valmet’s control valve offering – The needs of every industrial process covered

Valmet combines field‑proven technology, a broad portfolio, and advanced digital solutions to help customers reduce emissions, improve energy efficiency, and maximize process performance without compromising safety or accuracy.

Why does flow control product availability pay off?

You might have heard the saying that valve failure is expensive. Based on our experience, waiting is even more costly. When a valve fails, production comes to a standstill, and only then does the search begin: Where can we get the right part, and how quickly? That’s why local availability and fast delivery play a decisive role. At Valmet, we believe that thinking ahead, before issues arise, ensures plant availability and smooth operations.

What sits on top of your valve shapes performance

A valve can be well designed and still fall short in real service if the automation on top is not the optimal solution for the valve, the process, and the project requirements. The same great valve can perform better or worse depending on what is installed on top of it.  

A history of valve technology in service of the pulp & paper industry

The pulp and paper industry has long been one of the proving grounds for flow control technologies. It has consistently pushed valve technology toward higher durability, tighter sealing, and greater operational reliability. Our first Neles™ valves were delivered for pulp and paper service some 70 years ago. 

Flexibility and versatility for valves and dampers requiring electric actuation

Valmet has introduced a new electric actuator, the Valvcon Quarterback QB-series, to the Valvcon product offering. The Quarterback includes a mechanical spring back-up for quarter-turn applications, offering continuous-duty performance for valves and dampers that require driving to a predefined safe position, either fully closed or fully open, after a loss of external power.
