Day of Apprenticehsip at NETZSCH Pumps & Systems

When it comes to dosing different fertilizers, Spanish filling and packaging specialist Maquienvas was discontent with their electromagnetic and mass flow meters. They therefore turned to NETZSCH, who recommended PERIPRO peristaltic pumps specifically for this application that requires handling abrasive, corrosive and organic fluids.

Football not only inspires millions of people worldwide, but also has a unique social power: It connects people, fosters community, and transcends boundaries. The Kick & Fun initiative utilises precisely this strength of sport and has been organising inclusive football camps for children and young people for several years. NETZSCH Pumps & Systems is sponsoring the camp in Waldkraiburg for the third time and will cover the participation fees for ten children from low-income families this year.

A first-of-its-kind event, organised by the Association of Electrical and Mechanical Trades (AEMT) in close collaboration with Sulzer, was held at Sulzer’s Birmingham facility and brought together apprentices from across the electromechanical sector for an inspiring day of networking, learning, and hands-on team building.

NETZSCH Pumps USA highlights its TORNADO T1 Generation F pump, designed to produce high flow at low to medium pressures in a small compact package. It is ideal for various industrial applications. The pump can handle a wide range of viscosities, solids, temperature, abrasion, and corrosive/acidic process fluids and environments.

The more different suspensions and solutions are conveyed, the greater the challenges for the pumps. For example, Honeywell Specialty Chemicals GmbH at the Seelze site in Lower Saxony, Germany, had to contend with heavy wear and cost-intensive system downtimes.

Quality and efficiency – to guarantee both, precision in the handling of fluids is crucial in the chemical industry. This was also the case at a long-standing German chemical plant, which faced particular challenges when homogenising gel chunks of different sizes. The aim was to generate a steady flow with a uniform particle size.
