Dyes
Positive displacement gear pumps are ideal for transferring dyes due to their ability to provide a consistent and precise flow rate, regardless of the system pressure. This advantage ensures that the dye is transferred smoothly and evenly, minimizing the risk of color inconsistencies in the final product. The design of gear pumps allows them to handle a wide range of viscosities, making them versatile when dealing with different dye formulations. Additionally, their robust construction ensures reliable operation with minimal maintenance, reducing downtime and operational costs. These characteristics make positive displacement gear pumps a preferred choice for industries requiring the efficient and accurate handling of dyes.

Articles / Case Studies

Viking Pump invented, patented and manufactured the very first sealless mag drive rotary positive displacement (PD) pumps in the world, and developed several series over time for different applications, including the first generation 825, 895 and 855 ™ internal gear pumps.
Of these first generation mag drive pumps, all had different footprints from their dynamically-sealed cousins with...

Viscosity is a measure of a liquid’s resistance to flow. And you don’t need to work in a laboratory to observe this. Anyone who’s spent any time in the kitchen has observed a variety of liquids with a wide variety of viscosities.
