Dean Machine Tools (formerly “Doosan Machine Tools”) – Applications in the Oil and Gas Industry

　　Perfect Team Engineering was founded in Singapore in 1998 and is a leading provider of machining services to major oil and gas original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The majority of the company’s products are used downhole, such as safety valves and separators.

　　Purchase your first Dean machine tool (formerly “Doosan Machine Tools”) and achieve success.

　　The company purchased its first Dean machine tool (formerly “Doosan Machine Tools”) in 2009. Yu Thor Hock, Operations Manager at Perfect Team Engineering, stated: “We conducted several tests on the Dean machine tool (formerly ‘Doosan Machine Tools’), specifically the PUMA 480XL heavy‑duty turning center, machining a thread with a diameter of Ø13 3/8 inches using a 25 mm clamping length. The machine operated extremely smoothly throughout the cutting process. Compared with other machines in our shop, the Doosan machine is exceptionally precise, highly versatile, and requires minimal maintenance. We are very satisfied with the results of this trial and with the performance of the PUMA 480XL.”

　　Dean Machine Tools (formerly “Doosan Machine Tools”) has reduced machining time and improved processing efficiency with its five-axis machines.

　　Mr. Yu said, “In the machining industry, your company should have at least one five-axis machine tool. It can bring you a great deal of business.” In 2015, Perfect Team Engineering sought to enhance its capability to produce complex parts, but at the time, its workshop lacked equipment capable of efficiently manufacturing such products. Building on their success with the PUMA 480XL, they opted for a Doosan VC 630 / 5AX.

　　Mr. Yu said, “We aim to use a five-axis machine tool to streamline the machining process.” “We’ve previously employed other three- and four-axis machines, but those required numerous steps to complete part fabrication. In contrast, with a five-axis machine, the entire component can be finished in just two steps. This significantly shortens lead times and reduces both labor costs and overall production expenses.”

　　Ensures the precision of high-hardness materials during complex machining processes.

　　A new project has been introduced in the workshop, requiring complex machining of high‑hardness materials. The DVF 5000 was chosen because it eliminates the need for multiple setup operations, thereby reducing machining and downtime. Mr. Yu stated, “This time, we didn’t even consider other brands—we were determined to purchase a Doosan machine. The DVF 5000 we acquired comes equipped with an inspection function. We particularly appreciate this feature, as it allows us to verify part dimensions using a Renishaw probe after machining.”

　　Dean Machine Tools (formerly “Doosan Machine Tools”) supports the machining industry.

　　Today, Perfect Team Engineering’s workshop houses approximately 42 machines, 80% of which are Doosan. Mr. Yu concluded: “Doosan Machine Tools (formerly ‘Doosan Machine Tool’) requires minimal maintenance, delivers high precision, and offers robust functionality. I also believe their customer support is excellent, with very quick response times. That’s why we’re so satisfied with Doosan Machine Tools (formerly ‘Doosan Machine Tool’).”
