Greases

Grease being applied to industrial machine joint

Positive displacement gear pumps are ideal for transferring greases in manufacturing because they handle high-viscosity fluids effectively. These pumps trap a set amount of grease, forcing it through the discharge pipe to ensure a steady flow, even with system pressure changes. This makes them especially good for thick greases that resist flow in situations where other pumps might fail. Gear pumps have simple mechanisms that reduce shear and turbulence, maintaining the grease's performance qualities. Their sturdy design and reliability mean less maintenance and downtime, supporting continuous manufacturing operations. Overall, the precision, reliability, and adaptability of these pumps make them perfect for industries needing efficient transfer of dense materials like greases.
