Integrating its growing range of products into engineered-to-order (ETO) options is increasingly a lifestyle at Weir Minerals. The recent launch of its dredge-mounted Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump reveals how efficient this method could be, and how much it can contribute to customers’ backside strains.

WEIR MINERALS INTEGRATES KEY BRANDS IN MUDFLOW™ PUMP
Integrated solutions are what separates equipment suppliers from resolution suppliers, argues Marnus Koorts, common supervisor pump products at Weir Minerals Africa – and the lately launched Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump reveals how that is accomplished.
This dredge/excavator-mounted, mud-pumping innovation was launched final 12 months, after being developed in response to a challenge which a customer confronted, says Koorts. It is a heavy duty hydraulic submersible slurry pump designed for abrasive applications and large particle dealing with. Its software is primarily in reprocessing and relocating tailings ponds, sustaining water retention dams and managing slimes and sludge ponds.
“The Multiflo Mudflo pump successfully combines components of the Warman MGS submersible slurry pump-end, and a customized Multiflo designed bearing assembly coupled to a hydraulic motor,” he says. “Another key ingredient is the pairing of twin Multiflo CB33 hydraulic cutters with Weir ESCO excavation enamel.”
pressure gauge nuova fima ราคา agitate the settled solids, permitting abrasive and extremely charged slurries and dirt to be efficiently pumped. He emphasises that the components making up the Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump are drawn from Weir Minerals confirmed brands, and are fastidiously combined to provide an integrated resolution that saves customers money and time. It additionally reduces environmental impact, by avoiding the costly and energy-intensive process excavating and trucking the material off site.
“The pump design includes Weir Minerals’ Ultrachrome A05 chrome alloy casting for prime put on resistance,” he says. “There can be a suction strainer to forestall excessively massive particles clogging the pump.”
This ensures that the unit delivers optimum uptime alongside high performance ranges: the Mudflo™ 200 pump is able to pumping between one hundred fifty m3/h and 1,200 m3/h, up to a head of 82 metres. The pump can handle a maximum particle measurement of 80 mm, and a most liquid temperature of 35°C.
“While our integration of products has grown organically over time, it has become extra systematic and deliberate as our product range has grown and turn out to be more various,” says Koorts. “The method we’ve developed this solution shows the progress in recent years toward integrating our product traces to add worth to our offerings.”
He notes that the method of ETO ensures that solutions developed by Weir Minerals’ engineering groups ship more value than the sum of their component parts. In this case, the company’s dewatering specialists were able to attract on the best expertise from Weir Minerals’ Multiflo®, Warman® and Weir ESCO® manufacturers – combining them with superior hydraulics to create an innovative end result.
“Our intensive footprint in the field and our close collaboration with prospects on a every day basis provides us an in depth understanding of their particular requirements,” he says. “We can therefore make certain that our improvements are fit for purpose, being based mostly on our appreciable ETO capability and technical excellence.”
