Unfortunately, it sounds like the overall experience with rupture discs hasn't been the greatest. My company recently started a dedicated new product development team, of which I am a part, and this is exactly the type of situation we were put together for. Our target is to create the most value for our customers. Our team has a unique way of asking and verifying what is important, what the gap is with the current accepted solutions, and how much of an impact a measured improvement of each attribute can make to the process and organization. We would like to know who, from the production plant side, would need to be present to gain a holistic view of the process/production/safety/potential roadblocks so we can come up with the valuable solutions wanted/needed. We are open to solutions outside of rupture discs. Are you a good place to start? If not, who would you recommend? We simply want to gain a better understanding of the industry and safety relief devices as a whole, so we can create solutions that will take care of customer needs. Thank you very much for all of your help and time.
