Oerlikon to show pumps & polycondensation system at Achema

May 26, 2015 - Germany

Oerlikon Barmag is set to present precision metering pumps for the chemical industry and polycondensation systems at the Achema expo, to be held from June 15 to 19, 2015, in Frankfurt, Germany.

In case of operating an in-house polycondensation system for the yarn manufacturer, in addition to being independent of other granulate manufacturers, short-term price fluctuations within the raw materials market and the influence on the quality of the raw material, it is above all the added value that is most likely to result in higher profits.

Oerlikon Barmag offers all process steps from a single source – from supplying the terephthalic acid, the polycondensation system and the spinning plant all the way through to the texturing equipment.

Oerlikon Barmag pumps are deployed in numerous challenging processes within the chemical, plastics, dyes, and lacquers industries and in PUR applications. Oerlikon Barmag supplies veritable all-rounders for numerous applications. The high-speed pump in particular fulfils the expectations of the chemical industry with its sealed product space, the company informs in a press release.

The new Oerlikon Barmag high-speed metering pump has been especially developed for metering poorly-lubricating media. The main advantage of the pump is the sealed product space. The space within the pump that comes into contact with the media is therefore limited to the area around the gears.

The pumps in the GM and GA series provide precision metering with low-pulsation feeding of the conveying medium. With this range of pumps, Oerlikon Barmag offers its customers tailor-made solutions for many technical processes in which high-precision and even metering is of paramount importance.

With the drum pump, the Oerlikon Barmag pump specialists have created a pump designed specifically for conveying and metering high-viscosity materials such as adhesives, silicones and other high-viscosity materials from drums and other large containers and for pressures of up to 250 bar. Its special features not only include the fact that it removes high-viscosity materials from the drum, but that it also meters the medium directly without any additional interim stops. (GK)
