The international reach of mineral process tools specialist Multotec has been highlighted by the current provide of its South African-manufactured slurry pumps to a chrome project in Kazakhstan. According to Gerhard Hendriksz, general manager liable for slurry pumps at Multotec, an order of 38 slurry pumps was delivered in mid-December 2021 via a collaboration of Multotec’s worldwide enterprise team and the company’s distributor in Kazakhstan.
“The pumps have been produced based on the specs offered by Multotec’s distributor, ensuring the units will deliver the required duty for the end-customer,” says Hendriksz. “This consists of being designed to face up to highly abrasive working circumstances.”
Certain chrome deposits in Kazakhstan boast some of the world’s highest concentrations of chrome oxide (Cr₂O₃) – as much as 62% content – making the slurry particularly abrasive. The pump range that Multotec delivered consists of fashions from the HD25 to the MD300, in steel and rubber-lined configurations to suit their respective duties.
An impressive turnaround time of just 10 weeks was achieved, with Multotec leveraging its trusted native supply chain that included foundry work, machining and other suppliers in addition to collaboration with Multotec’s technical partner, 7D primarily based in Perth, Australia.
เกจ์แรงดัน , manufacturing manager responsible for pumps at Multotec, also emphasises that a close working relationship with end consumer and Multotec’s Russian-speaking business group ensured easy preparation and supply.
“Our distributor has in-depth information of the customer’s purposes and has the engineering experience to ensure optimum product specification and performance,” says Burger. “Multotec will assist the products with aftersales and help providers, including availability of spare parts.”
Despite the trade disruptions related to the Covid-19 pandemic, Multotec has continued to carry out strongly on the export front. Last yr, it earned a spot within the Exporter of the Year Awards – introduced by the South African Capital Equipment Export Council (SACEEC).
Multotec provides a whole range of pumps for medium and heavy obligation slurry purposes, including cyclone feed, spirals feed, mill discharge, tailings disposal, filter feed, effluent discharge and spillage. The range caters for circulate rates from round 15 m3/hr up to 2,000 m3/hr.
