We control the entire development and production process of our products. That allows us to be extremely flexible for implementing clients` requirements and improvements quickly. After all, we have the knowledge and expertise we need under one roof.

Material

The heart of our pumps is a hydraulic assembly made from AISI 304 or AISI 316 stainless-steel sheet metal. Impeller, stage casing and pump shroud are all formed from this high quality material. Other components, such as the shaft, the pump base and the motor stool, are procured as raw materials or semi-finished products.

Tools
`Moulds and dies precision manufactured to a hundredth of a millimeter guarantee a durable product.`

Stainless steel is a great material. It is durable, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant and very well-suited to preserve the quality of drinking water. What`s more, it can be moulded into the perfect hydraulic shape.

Our toolmakers use advanced electrical-discharge machining, grinders, lathes and milling machines to produce with extreme precision the moulds and dies that we need to create the perfect product.

Production of pump parts

Our manufacturing processes are automated, thereby ensuring high quality and efficiency. However, at each step of the process, people monitor the machines.

Although the welding robots visually inspect to see if the operation has been carried out correctly, the experienced operator closely monitors the process. The operator calibrates, measures and inspects tolerances and damage. These random checks are carried out at every stage of the production process. When needed, R&D and their engineering colleagues are always on hand to answer questions and solve problems.

Nothing left to chance

To ensure the production processes run as efficiently as possible, closely coordinated internal logistics are essential. Semi-finished products must arrive at the processing stations on time and the parts and components produced must be released to operational stock directly. A fully digitally controlled process, with all movements scanned and registered, makes sure that nothing is left to chance.

Motors and controls The hydraulic efficiency of our pumps is among the best in the world. This involves optimising each detail to achieve every last tenth of a percent of efficiency gains.

The same innovation applies to motors, which are continuously becoming more efficient. In Europe, electric motors must meet the IE3 standard, but IE5 is now becoming the preferred choice. Within this standard the operation of the motor, together with an intelligent control system, is adapted by us to external circumstances. Thanks to the effective communication of the controls, our products ensure optimum energy management in every situation.
