PARKER HANNIFIN™ PERFORMANCE RESTORED
Parker Hannifin™, a global leader in hydraulic cylinder manufacturing, called on Grover Corporation to solve assembly and quality issues with rings provided by another manufacturer in a wide variety of hydraulic cylinders they produce.
Challenge
An initial meeting between Grover's application group & Parker’s procurement team, discovered that two of Parker’s manufacturing locations using a competitor’s rings, had significant assembly issues where rings were deformed during installation. Parker also discovered unusual scoring and leakage within the cylinder. The specific cause remained elusive.
Solution
After a thorough analysis, Grover Corporations application team quickly supplied Parker’s procurement and engineering teams with standard Permaseal®- style rings for installation at both manufacturing locations that were having cylinder problems. The feedback from both locations was the new product worked and product performance was restored.
End-Result
Grover Corporation’s rings completely solved Parker’s hydraulic cylinder problems. No more assembly problems, no more scoring and no more breakage. Another example of how Grover Corporation products outperform the competition and exceed customer expectations by providing exceptional engineering expertise, efficient customer service and superior products.
