Integrating its growing vary of products into engineered-to-order (ETO) solutions is increasingly a way of life at Weir Minerals. The current launch of its dredge-mounted Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump exhibits how effective this approach can be, and the way a lot it could contribute to customers’ bottom strains.

WEIR MINERALS INTEGRATES KEY BRANDS IN MUDFLOW™ PUMP
Integrated options are what separates tools suppliers from answer suppliers, argues Marnus Koorts, basic manager pump merchandise at Weir Minerals Africa – and the recently launched Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump shows how that is done.
This dredge/excavator-mounted, mud-pumping innovation was launched last yr, after being developed in response to a problem which a customer confronted, says Koorts. It is a heavy obligation hydraulic submersible slurry pump designed for abrasive purposes and huge particle dealing with. Its utility is primarily in reprocessing and relocating tailings ponds, sustaining water retention dams and managing slimes and sludge ponds.
“The Multiflo Mudflo pump efficiently combines parts of the Warman MGS submersible slurry pump-end, and a custom Multiflo designed bearing meeting coupled to a hydraulic motor,” he says. “ เกจวัดแรงดันลม is the pairing of dual Multiflo CB33 hydraulic cutters with Weir ESCO excavation enamel.”
The cutters mechanically agitate the settled solids, allowing abrasive and highly charged slurries and mud to be effectively pumped. He emphasises that the components making up the Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump are drawn from Weir Minerals proven brands, and are carefully combined to supply an built-in solution that saves prospects money and time. It additionally reduces environmental impression, by avoiding the pricey and energy-intensive process excavating and trucking the fabric off web site.
“The pump design consists of Weir Minerals’ Ultrachrome A05 chrome alloy casting for high wear resistance,” he says. “There is also a suction strainer to forestall excessively large particles clogging the pump.”
This ensures that the unit delivers optimal uptime alongside excessive efficiency levels: the Mudflo™ 200 pump is able to pumping between a hundred and fifty m3/h and 1,200 m3/h, as a lot as a head of 82 metres. The pump can handle a maximum particle size of eighty mm, and a maximum liquid temperature of 35°C.
“While our integration of merchandise has grown organically over the years, it has become extra systematic and deliberate as our product range has grown and turn out to be more various,” says Koorts. “The way we’ve developed this resolution shows the progress in recent times towards integrating our product strains to add worth to our offerings.”
He notes that the method of ETO ensures that options developed by Weir Minerals’ engineering groups ship more value than the sum of their part parts. In this case, the company’s dewatering consultants have been ready to draw on the most effective technology from Weir Minerals’ Multiflo®, Warman® and Weir ESCO® manufacturers – combining them with advanced hydraulics to create an innovative end result.
“Our extensive footprint in the field and our close collaboration with customers on a day by day basis offers us a detailed understanding of their particular necessities,” he says. “We can therefore be positive that our innovations are match for function, being based mostly on our appreciable ETO capability and technical excellence.”
