Integrating its rising range of products into engineered-to-order (ETO) solutions is increasingly a lifestyle at Weir Minerals. The recent launch of its dredge-mounted Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump exhibits how efficient this method could be, and the way much it could contribute to customers’ bottom traces.

WEIR MINERALS INTEGRATES KEY BRANDS IN MUDFLOW™ PUMP
Integrated options are what separates gear suppliers from resolution suppliers, argues Marnus Koorts, general supervisor pump merchandise at Weir Minerals Africa – and the recently launched Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump exhibits how this is done.
This dredge/excavator-mounted, mud-pumping innovation was launched final 12 months, after being developed in response to a problem which a buyer faced, says Koorts. It is a heavy duty hydraulic submersible slurry pump designed for abrasive purposes 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 elements of the Warman MGS submersible slurry pump-end, and a customized Multiflo designed bearing meeting coupled to a hydraulic motor,” he says. “Another key ingredient is the pairing of twin Multiflo CB33 hydraulic cutters with Weir ESCO excavation tooth.”
The cutters mechanically agitate the settled solids, permitting abrasive and extremely charged slurries and dust to be effectively pumped. He emphasises that the elements making up the Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump are drawn from Weir Minerals confirmed brands, and are rigorously combined to produce an built-in answer that saves customers time and money. It additionally reduces environmental impact, by avoiding the costly and energy-intensive course of excavating and trucking the fabric off site.
“The pump design contains Weir Minerals’ Ultrachrome A05 chrome alloy casting for prime wear resistance,” he says. “There can be a suction strainer to stop excessively giant particles clogging the pump.”
This ensures that the unit delivers optimum uptime alongside high efficiency ranges: the Mudflo™ 200 pump is capable of pumping between a hundred and fifty m3/h and 1,200 m3/h, up to a head of 82 metres. The pump can handle a most particle size of eighty mm, and a most liquid temperature of 35°C.
“While our integration of products has grown organically over the years, it has turn out to be more systematic and deliberate as our product range has grown and turn into extra various,” says Koorts. “The method we’ve developed this solution shows the progress in recent times towards integrating our product lines to add value to our choices.”
He notes that the process of ETO ensures that solutions developed by Weir Minerals’ engineering groups ship extra worth than the sum of their component parts. In this case, the company’s dewatering consultants had been ready to attract on the most effective expertise from Weir Minerals’ Multiflo®, Warman® and Weir ESCO® brands – combining them with superior hydraulics to create an innovative end result.
“ digital pressure gauge ราคา in the area and our close collaboration with customers on a day by day basis gives us an in depth understanding of their specific requirements,” he says. “We can therefore be positive that our improvements are fit for objective, being primarily based on our appreciable ETO functionality and technical excellence.”
