Integrating its rising vary of products into engineered-to-order (ETO) options is more and more a way of life at Weir Minerals. The current launch of its dredge-mounted Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump shows how effective this method may be, and the way a lot it could contribute to customers’ bottom lines.

WEIR MINERALS INTEGRATES KEY BRANDS IN MUDFLOW™ PUMP
Integrated options are what separates equipment suppliers from resolution suppliers, argues Marnus Koorts, general supervisor pump merchandise at Weir Minerals Africa – and the just lately launched Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump exhibits how this is done.
This dredge/excavator-mounted, mud-pumping innovation was launched last yr, after being developed in response to a problem which a buyer confronted, says Koorts. It is a heavy obligation hydraulic submersible slurry pump designed for abrasive functions and enormous particle handling. Its utility is primarily in reprocessing and relocating tailings ponds, sustaining water retention dams and managing slimes and sludge ponds.
“The Multiflo Mudflo pump successfully combines elements of the Warman MGS submersible slurry pump-end, and a customized Multiflo designed bearing meeting coupled to a hydraulic motor,” he says. “Another key ingredient is the pairing of twin Multiflo CB33 hydraulic cutters with Weir ESCO excavation enamel.”
The cutters mechanically agitate the settled solids, permitting abrasive and extremely charged slurries and mud to be efficiently pumped. He emphasises that the elements making up the Multiflo® Mudflo™ pump are drawn from Weir Minerals confirmed brands, and are carefully mixed to supply an integrated answer that saves clients time and money. It additionally reduces environmental impression, by avoiding the pricey and energy-intensive process excavating and trucking the material off site.
“The pump design consists of Weir Minerals’ Ultrachrome A05 chrome alloy casting for top put on resistance,” he says. “There is also a suction strainer to forestall excessively massive particles clogging the pump.”
This ensures that the unit delivers optimal uptime alongside high performance ranges: the Mudflo™ 200 pump is capable of pumping between a hundred and fifty m3/h and 1,200 m3/h, up to a head of 82 metres. The pump can handle a most particle size of eighty mm, and a most liquid temperature of 35°C.
“While our integration of merchandise has grown organically over time, it has become extra systematic and deliberate as our product vary has grown and turn out to be more various,” says Koorts. “The method we’ve developed this answer shows the progress in current years towards integrating our product lines to add value to our choices.”
He notes that the method of ETO ensures that options developed by Weir Minerals’ engineering groups ship more value than the sum of their element elements. In this case, the company’s dewatering consultants were in a position to draw on one of the best technology from Weir Minerals’ Multiflo®, Warman® and Weir ESCO® manufacturers – combining them with advanced hydraulics to create an progressive outcome.
“Our intensive footprint in the field and our close collaboration with clients each day offers us an in depth understanding of their specific necessities,” he says. “We can therefore make certain that our innovations are match for purpose, being based mostly on our appreciable ETO capability and technical excellence.”
