01
Requirements & feasibility
We review the application, operating conditions, interfaces, and evidence needed to define a feasible route.
Custom Development
Engineered around your mission
AstraValve develops high-pressure valve solutions around the defined fluid, pressure, flow, actuation, interfaces, packaging, and operating environment.
Our development process
From operating case to verified scope
Each programme is scaled to the maturity of the requirement. Gates, evidence, and deliverables are agreed before work advances.
02
Concept & design
A valve architecture is shaped around performance, packaging, actuation, and manufacturability.
03
Engineering & analysis
Structural, thermal, and flow analyses are selected to test the design assumptions.
04
Prototyping & manufacturing
Engineering hardware is produced with controlled drawings, materials, and inspection requirements.
05
Testing & validation
The agreed test plan is used to evaluate function, pressure integrity, and endurance objectives.
06
Delivery & support
Validated scope, documentation, integration support, and next-stage recommendations are delivered.
What we can customise
Configuration where it creates engineering value
Options are evaluated as a system. A material, actuator, or interface choice is never treated independently of the operating case.
Performance
- Pressure and flow targets
- Pressure-drop optimisation
- Response-time objectives
- Defined operating modes
Media & materials
- Application-specific material selection
- Seal-stack assessment

Actuation
- Pneumatic actuation concepts
- Actuation pressure and force
- Response-time optimisation
- Optional position feedback
Operating environment
- Thermal operating envelope
- Vibration and shock requirements

Start your project
A direct engineering conversation
Share the known requirements—even if the operating case is still developing. We will identify missing inputs and propose a sensible feasibility step.
Submit the operating case
Review feasibility and unknowns
Define scope and evidence
Start with the requirements you have
Our first step is to understand the operating case and identify a proportionate path to feasibility.
