Portable machines for grinding and lapping of sealing faces in gate valves and non-return valves, gates and flanges. Optionally, these machines can be fitted with a digital rocker for contact pressure. This patented unit guarantees reproducibility and absolutely flat sealing faces. In addition, our valve grinding machines can be fitted with a swing-check adapter to enable machining of sealing faces on non-return valves with a large inclination. Hard seats can be machined with our portable high-speed valve grinding machine with driven spindles. This makes extremely fast and effective machining possible. This option can be retrofitted (SLA) on existing machines or can be supplied as a complete system. Fast setup and removal of the machines is guaranteed by means of a specially developed clamping block.

DN 80 – 600 mm (3 ¼“ – 24“) pneumatic 6-7 bar

The EFCO TSV is a portable grinding and lapping machine with excenter for the machining of sealing faces of safety valves. The machine has two separate drives. This results in a cross-ground and absolutely flat sealing face. 

Work range: Power supply:

DN 15 – 300 mm (1/2“ – 12“) electric 230 / 110 V, 50/60 Hz or pneumatic 6-7 bar

Brochure TSV

High-speed grinding machine for machining flat and conical sealing faces in valves and on flanges. Particularly suitable for precise grinding of heavily damaged faces, cylindrical holes and conical sealing faces, in particular after build-up welding.

Work range: Power supply:

DN 20 – 1500  mm (3/4“ – 60“)  pneumatic 6-7 bar

These stationary grinding machines can be used on site or in the workshop. They are suitable for face grinding gates, valve seats and other machine components. The aluminium grinding plate is fitted with self-adhesive abrasive disks. A fixed stop provides improved guiding of the workpiece.

Work range: Power supplay:

Table diameter  600 mm (24“) electric 230 V, 50/60 Hz

EFCO surface lapping machines are excellent for lapping individual or series components. Worn components, such as valve seats, mechanical shaft seals, disks, etc., can be re-lapped in repair workshops and at refurbishment companies. Automatic and finely adjustable lapping compound feed as well as freely adjustable lapping table speed guarantee high quality lapping results.

DN 8 – 500 mm (¼“– 20“) electric 230/110 V 400V, 50/60 Hz

Stationary ball valve lapping machine for the simultaneous finishing of the ball and 2 metallic sealing rings. For small and medium-sized ball workpieces with diameters of up to 300 mm.

Main features of this machine are:

• Simultaneous lapping of all sealing parts
• Huge time savings compared to the manual lapping process
• Ensure an exact fit of ball and sealing seats
• Control speed of each drive continuously and independently
• Integrated metering device for steady distribution of lapping mixture
• Loading of large lapping workpieces from above
• Adjustable stroke of sealing seat movement
• Continuously adjustable pressure control to regulate contact between valve seats and ball
• Drip container for used lapping mixture
• Door equipped with protection switch
• Timer with automatic shutoff
• Ergonomically adjustable control panel

EFCO grinding and lapping compounds have been matched to the FCO technology after extensive testing. We supply various grain sizes and formulations optimised for the application.
