Introducing Our New Doosan Puma VTS1620M
Most manufacturers and businesses know how exciting it is to purchase a brand new machine (especially if it’s a Doosan!) Here at DFT, we are lucky enough to now have two of these impressive pieces of equipment. Our newest member of the family, a Doosan Puma VTS1620M, will enable us to machine and manufacture valves even better than before. This specific machine is a large vertical turning center with a RAM head spindle that will now provide us with high precision and high machining accuracy for the long-term. Our new Doosan will enable us to machine bigger and more precise valve orders. It’s highly productive and will increase our efficiency, which will shorten the turnaround time on your new valve!
The capability to cut ultra large and ultra heavy duty product with a high reliability rate is a game-changer for DFT Valves. Many manufacturers will tell you that this particular machine is worth its weight in gold. Large diameter valves will now be a breeze for us to machine in-house, reducing our turnaround times. You’ve come to expect high quality from us, and the Doosan Puma VTS1620M is known around the world for the highest quality machining.
Boiler Maintenance Season is Here!
That was one long winter. Many parts of the U.S. had snowfall into the last few weeks of April, and the below average temperatures are still lingering in some regions. As we slowly transition into spring and summer, many overused boilers, especially on university campuses and in commercial buildings, are ready for annual inspection and maintenance.

Come See DFT Inc. at Booth #300 at the Energy Generation Conference 2013 in Bismarck, ND
Regular readers of our blog know that PDC (Pulse Dampening Check) check valves from DFT Inc. are ideal for energy generation applications. At the 2013 Energy Generation Conference in Bismarck, ND, we’ll be exhibiting our line of valve products for energy infrastructure, and taking the opportunity to meet others in this booming industry . This year’s conference, taking place from January 29 – 31, will cover topics like water analysis through pH, the continuing growth of natural gas, and the turbine-based operation of power plants. There will also be more overview-oriented material, safety and management sessions, and presentations focusing on how to make all types of energy greener.
Desalinization: The Fresh Water Revolution
As worldwide economies continue to grow and globalization increases, the same issues as always arise. Growing, wealthier populations need more food, more shelter, and definitely more fresh water. Many such places, like those in the Middle East or Africa, have little access to fresh water, instead relying on ever-depleting sources like ground water.
