Source obsolete parts

Pump users often find it difficult to source parts for old or obsolete equipment. Such parts may be subject to long delivery times or may only be available at unattractive commercial terms. In cases such as these, our re-engineering capabilities provide a competitive and reliable alternative. These advantages apply not only for pumps but can be applied to a wide range of equipment regardless of age or manufacturer. Some of the sophisticated parts which demand the most demanding engineering and production precision that we've produced are:

• Impellers
• Casing covers
• Shaft
• Wear rings
• Balancing drum
• Volute casing
• Rotor
• Balance drum liner
• Diffuser
• Back pull-out assembly
  

Using sophisticated 3D coordinate measuring equipment, a part can be fully modeled to a high degree of accuracy. The model is then used to generate manufacturing drawings for the new part. Parts may be turned or cast. For castings, our patternless rapid prototyping technology reduces lead times for quick deliveries.

One of the key advantages of this technology for the end user is the ability to incorporate changes as part of the process. Components that were originally produced many years ago can often be upgraded with new designs and material improvements.

Customer benefits

Whatever the approach, our re-engineering services are targeted to deliver the following benefits:

• Improved efficiency
• Improved performance (mechanical and hydraulic)
• Increased Mean Time Between Repairs (MTBR)
• Reduced operating and maintenance costs
• Application of our technology to third-party machinery
• Guaranteed results
