Sine pumps optimise high viscosity resin delivery at Enercon

One of the world’s largest wind turbine manufacturers, Enercon, is using MasoSine SPS sinusoidal pumps from Watson-Marlow Fluid Technology Group to optimise the delivery of protective impregnating resin at its Magdeburg production facility in Germany.

Bearings selection: the key to prolonging pump life

Bearings selection: the key to prolonging pump life

Well designed and manufactured bearings will ensure that a pump works more efficiently, can tolerate higher temperature running and cope with varying load conditions. Perhaps more importantly, bearing selection will also have a marked effect upon the life expectancy of a pump, as Phil Burge, Marketing and Communications Manager at SKF explains.

How to choose the right valve for optimised machine performance

How to choose the right valve for optimised machine performance

Increased production demands in recent years have led to a need for more accurate, reliable and durable components. Ironically, as the range of available technologies and pneumatic valve types, models, and properties expands to meet these requirements, specifiers, machine builders, OEMs and plant engineers can find the choice daunting.
