Multotec’s pump operations are redefining industry standards by prioritising local manufacturing, resulting in significantly shorter lead times times, enhanced product availability, and unmatched cost-effectiveness for clients.
By localising production of both pumps and spares, the company is not only strengthening its presence in the African mining sector but also offering high-performance solutions designed for the harshest environments.
Advancing pump technology and performance
A key highlight in this year’s operations is the ongoing development and testing of the Oryx pump range. The Oryx pump is designed for slurry applications, with a focus on increased performance, reduced wear and ease of maintenance.
Engineered to excel in these conditions, the Oryx range was developed to date and has recorded an increase in efficiency, whilst allowing for lower energy consumption.
The Oryx pump, which will be featured at The upcoming Electra Mining show can operate at higher efficiency with lower speeds, reducing wear rates and extending the life of the pump.
Tailored for chemical resistance
In addition to improved performance, Multotec now supplies a broader range of specialised, acid-resistant materials for the pump line.
To meet specific industry applications with abrasive and corrosive chemicals the company offers components in:
- Ferralium 255
- High-Chromium Stainless Steel
- White Iron
- Natural rubber
- Butyl rubber
- Nitrile rubber
These specialised materials, combined with the new local manufacturing of Improved Wear Design (IWD) components, directly increase pump efficiency and reduce energy usage for clients.
