Practical answers about product selection, customization, quality, orders, delivery, and support.

Product range, model naming, valve matching, and selection data.

Part-turn valve gearboxes are used for butterfly, ball, and plug valves, while multi-turn valve gearboxes are used for gate and globe valves. If your valve type or operating conditions are special, send the valve data to YOYAGE and the suitable design will be confirmed. Browse the full range on the Valve Gearbox page.

Yes. All models in the MY series can be configured as part-turn or multi-turn — the key feature of this series. The configuration is confirmed during selection based on your valve type and operating requirements.

MY, MY-V, YZ, and YZ-ZC are base manual series built from their respective gear types, suited to smaller torques and gear ratios. The S suffix (MY-1S, YZ-S) adds a spur gear stage for higher torque and ratio in manual operation. The D suffix (MY-D, MY-1S D, YZ-D) is the electric-actuator-driven version, where the handwheel input is replaced by a flange for connection to an electric actuator.

Please provide the valve type, valve size, required torque, stem dimensions, and connection parameters. If some data is unavailable, the YOYAGE team will review your application and recommend a suitable reference solution. See the Selection Guide for details.

Part-turn valve gearboxes cover 240 to 850,000 Nm, and multi-turn valve gearboxes cover 216 to 170,000 Nm, with manual, electric, or pneumatic operation options.

Customization options, special configurations, and the design confirmation process.

Yes. Standard designs can be adapted to your valve and application requirements, and every custom gearbox is confirmed by drawings before production starts. See Custom Solutions for details.

Standard customization covers handwheel and chainwheel size, valve flange connection per ISO 5211, ISO 5210, and JB 2920-81, valve stem connection (keyed, square bore, trapezoidal thread, and more), housing and gear materials (ductile iron, WCB, CF8/CF8M, LCC/LCB/LC1, solid or bronze-rimmed worm wheels), gear ratios, and stem protection covers. See Basic Customization for details.

Special configurations include dual ratio valve gearboxes, valve gearboxes with open position indicator, multi-gearbox combinations such as Worm & Worm, Worm & Bevel, and Bevel & Bevel, and three-input valve gearboxes for special input modes and directions. See Special Customization for details.

Every custom order follows a clear process: requirement review, custom design and drawings, drawing review and approval, and then production and inspection. Learn more on the Service page.

Certificates, inspection steps, and protection ratings.

Yes. YOYAGE maintains complete product documents and can provide available certificates, inspection reports, and related technical files according to customer requirements. See Certifications for details.

Quality control covers incoming inspection, in-process inspection, torque testing, and a final systematic check of appearance, structure, and function before every delivery. Learn more about Quality Control at YOYAGE.

Standard gearboxes are sealed for general industrial environments, with IP68 upgrades available for special waterproof environments. Coating systems can be upgraded to the C5 corrosion category per ISO 12944 for marine, chemical, and coastal installations.

Minimum order, lead time, payment terms, and capacity.

No. There is no minimum order quantity for standard orders — standard customization options such as flanges, stem connections, handwheels, materials, IP ratings, and coating systems are available with regular orders. For small-batch orders, the customer needs to cover the shipping costs. For non-standard requirements, such as custom gear ratios beyond the standard range or special customization, the minimum order quantity is decided case by case depending on the design.

Standard orders are completed in 3–20 days, depending on the specific order quantity. Customized orders are scheduled according to the specific order details — contact YOYAGE for a quotation. In all cases, customer requirements come first: YOYAGE provides convenient, efficient service for every customer and makes every effort to complete orders on time.

The standard payment term is 30% advance payment after contract confirmation, with the remaining 70% paid before shipment.

YOYAGE operates in-house machining, assembly, and painting with controlled production processes and an annual capacity of 300,000+ units. See Manufacturing for details.
