Company Profile
Established in 2020, Frontier Technology specializes in ultra‑precision machining technologies and manufactures ball valves with micron‑level accuracy. Thanks to our exceptional sealing performance and durability—achieved through high‑precision processing—our valves deliver stable and reliable performance even under demanding conditions. These include applications involving low‑viscosity fluids, gas lines with significant slurry or by‑product accumulation, and processes containing powders where conventional valves often require frequent maintenance.
By ensuring consistent performance in such harsh environments, Frontier Technology helps improve equipment reliability while reducing maintenance workload and costs, ultimately supporting stable and efficient plant operations for our customers.
If you are experiencing challenges with your existing equipment, we invite you to contact Frontier Technology.
We are here to help you find the optimal solution.
As derivatives of the ball valve, we also handle V-ball valves, three-way valves, diverter valves, and tank ball valves.
The combined effect of the following characteristics achieves extended longevity!
Ultra-Precision Ball in Micron Units
Precision machining technology capable of achieving dimensions in the range of several micrometres enables the manufacture of balls and metal sheets.
Competitors' machining precision is around 20 micrometres.
Leak-resistant metal sheet
Through ultra-precision machining, Class VI compliance with ANSI/FCI 70-2 / IEC 60534-4 is achieved using a metal sheet.
Typically, Class VI compliance is only possible with a soft sheet.
Highly wear-resistant proprietary thermal spray coating
Achieves high wear resistance with balls featuring sprayed tungsten carbide.
High Performance PLastics(PP / PE / SM / MMA etc)
Acetic acid, sulphur, hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, catalysts, slurry, pellets, monomers, and other applications
Nickel smelting
Nickel-cobalt, sulphides, copper sulphides, hydrogen sulphide and other applications
Building Services/Water Treatment
Applications such as rotary control valves for pump outlets and steam control valves
Power Plant
Coal-fired power plant slurry, powder lines, synthesis gas, acidic wastewater, ammonia lines and other applications
Polysilicon
Applications with demanding conditions such as TCS, DCS, CVD, STC, Si, PH, etc.
PTA (High-purity terephthalic acid)
Applications including CTA/PTA slurry lines, catalysts, ethylene, bromine, N₂, TA slurry lines, etc.
Acetic acid
Applications for ethanol, methanol, aldehydes, ethylene, sodium hydroxide
CASE 1
Replacing standard Teflon-seated valves with our metal-seated valves tripled their service life.
Replacing the Teflon-seated valves used in the catalyst injection line and polymerisation equipment with our metal-seated valves resulted in a threefold increase in service life.
CASE 2
Replacing third-party ball valves requiring frequent maintenance with our metal-seated ball valves significantly reduced maintenance part costs.
Third-party metal-seated ball valves used in RFCC and FCC lines incurred substantial maintenance costs due to expensive replacement parts, yet no improvement proposals were made. Introducing our metal-seated ball valves alongside an improvement proposal resulted in extended service life and substantial reductions in part costs.
