The metal industry relies on powerful and durable pumping systems to support a wide range of operations—from raw material handling and cooling to chemical treatment and waste management. Whether in steelworks, foundries, fabrication plants, or metal finishing facilities, pumps must withstand abrasive, corrosive, and high-temperature conditions while maintaining reliable performance under heavy use.
Key Applications
1. Cooling and Quenching Systems
Metal forming and machining generate extreme heat. Pumps circulate water, oils, or specialised coolants through quenching tanks, heat exchangers, and process lines to control temperatures and prevent warping or cracking of components.
2. Chemical Pickling and Surface Treatment
Before painting, coating, or welding, metal parts are treated in chemical baths to remove scale, rust, or oxides. Pumps are used to transfer and circulate aggressive acids and cleaning agents. Magnetic drive, diaphragm, or vertical pumps are chosen for their resistance to harsh chemicals.
3. Slurry and Slag Handling
Metal processing produces abrasive slurries and heavy by-products such as slag. Progressive cavity and heavy-duty centrifugal pumps handle these thick, solids-laden materials, maintaining flow without excessive wear.
4. Lubricant and Coolant Circulation
CNC and metalworking machines depend on pumps to deliver lubricants and cutting fluids to working surfaces. These systems require continuous flow to ensure clean cuts, prolong tool life, and maintain precision.
