The efficiency and service life of pumps can be extended by following the manufacturer’s installation recommendation for pipe straight run entering the pump. When cramped pump houses or restricted pipe runs make this impractical and costly, Vortab Flow Conditioners overcome this challenge by delivering a uniform, swirl-free flow profile to the pump inlet in as little as three pipe diameters.

Leybold has introduced two new vacuum pumps DV 650 and DV 800 FP-r under its Dryvac series. These solutions are compact, easy to maintain, clean and also offer high tolerance to vapor, liquid slugs and soft particles.

The requirements for pumps are clear: A safe, efficient and reliable performance — An yet, corrosive media provides a tough challenge for the versatile machines. Can engineers only choose between wear and energy loss? Lined magnetic drive pumps could change the way we handle fluidics.

Pfeiffer Vacuum has introduced the new advanced Hipace 80 Neo – the world's first laser-balanced turbopump in its class. The solution offers improved durability and lower vibration as well as noise emissions.

The Bahr El Baqar wastewater treatment project has three Guinness World Records to its name – the largest water treatment plant in the world, the largest sludge treatment plant and the largest single-operator ozone generating plant. Situated in the Sinai Peninsula, Egypt, the project is changing the dynamics of the country which is suffering from a water-crisis.

The Hiscroll series from Pfeiffer Vacuum consists of three dry and hermetically sealed scroll pumps with a nominal pumping speed of 6 – 20 m³/h. These vacuum pumps are characterized not only by their high performance when evacuating against atmosphere but also by their high energy efficiency that reduces their carbon footprint, the company states.

A collaboration between the Okinawa Institute of Science and Technology (Oist) and the Polytechnic University of Milan has found that when a fluid is pumped through a pipe in an intermittent way, the cost of transport is significantly reduced.

Siemens is driving digital transformation: a new business unit pools key software areas contributing to digitalization of the process industry. Bart Moors, Head of the new unit and Head of Portfolio Management Dr. Uschi Mitsching are focusing on comprehensive support for customers and their plants across the entire lifecycle, regardless of where they join the digitalization journey.

The pharmaceutical industry is changing rapidly and so are the equipment used in the production space. Robots are being constantly updated with new and advanced features to deliver contamination-free and high-quality drugs quickly and efficiently to the end consumer.

The increasing demand for industrial pumps in China has led Netzsch Pumps & Systems to relocate to a new site in order to expand its production capacity. The site is located on the Dinglian Industrial Park, one of the five state-approved industrial parks in the Lanzhou New and High-tech Industrial Development Zone.
