Polyurethanes

stacks of polyurethane foam

Gear pumps are the best solution for transferring polyurethane liquid due to their precision, reliability, and ability to handle viscous substances without compromising efficiency. Polyurethane, being a material that requires careful handling to maintain its properties, benefits from the continuous, non-pulsating flow provided by gear pumps. This mechanism not only minimizes shear, which can degrade the material, but also provides exceptional control over flow rates, crucial for applications requiring precise dosages. Additionally, gear pumps are known for their durability and ability to withstand harsh operating conditions, making them an ideal choice for the industrial environments where polyurethane liquids are frequently processed.

Viking Pump patent for mag drive technology
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...
Collage of liquids with different viscosities like milk, orange juice, syrup, etc.
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.
