Petrochemical Industry

The petrochemical and refining industry is characterized by the use of a large number of pumps to drive and control all process fluids. Each type of fluid, pump and fluid mechanics requirements usually require a particular type of pump. These conditions mean that a refinery plant uses an enormous number of pumps, which requires the availability of many different spare parts, generating an immobilized warehouse with a very high cost.

 

The basis of the problem

1
Problem

Increased investments in the permanent storage of pump driver spares. The need for a quick and on demand supply of liquid pump driver spares.

2
Improvements

Digital inventory
Reduced working capital

3
Benefits

The 3D printed driver does not require balancing
On demand manufacture
More flexibility

3D scanning of parts

we use a 3D laser scanner to obtain three dimensional models of items wich we do not have the drawings.

Prototyping and short runs

High-quality production without tooling. Fully functioning parts.

Spares on demand

High-quality production without tooling. Fully functioning parts.

Mould Inserts

We design conformal cooling channels for plastic and aluminium injection inserts. With our inserts the cycle time is improved in addition to the quality of the injected item.

Process boosting

We analyse your industrial process and apply additive engineering to redesign tools
