NETZSCH Pumps & Systems Opens Assembly Center in South Africa

NETZSCH Pumps USA, the complex fluid handling solutions provider, announces that Nelson Bertaia has joined the team as TORNADO/ Grinder Product Line Manager along with being the Regional Sales Manager Northeast.

At a tank farm in a Brazilian sea port, two centrifugal pumps were used for transferring heavy oil from storage tanks to road tankers or vessels until February 2020. This required the high viscosity of the medium to be reduced by means of diesel injection, costing the owner at least 2,000 US dollars each day. In addition, the centrifugal pumps regularly broke down due to cavitation damage. The owners decided to initially replace one of the two centrifugal pumps with a NOTOS multi screw pump from NETZSCH. Due to its very good suction capabilities, the selected four-screw 4NS is also suitable for highly viscous media with up to 200,000 cSt, achieving a flow rate of up to 3000 m³/h.

NETZSCH Pumps USA highlights its complex fluid handling solutions for mining applications. The NEMO Progressing Cavity Pump, TORNADO T2 Rotary Lobe Pump, PERIPRO Peristaltic Pumps, and Dewatering Skid are safe, reliable, and cost-effective solutions ideal for mines that require a small and compact movable unit to address their dewatering challenges.

NETZSCH Pumps USA is considerably expanding its pump manufacturing machines and processes in its Exton, Pennsylvania Facility. This expansion allows NETZSCH to serve customers across the country in a more efficient and cost-effective manner.

NETZSCH Pumps & Systems is building a new production plant at our Brazilian manufacturing site as part of the NETZSCH group’s global strategy for producing and supplying the global NOTOS® multiple screw pumps market.

The adoption of peristaltic pumps is expected to increase at a CAGR of 3.8% during the forecast period. The peristaltic pumps market size is anticipated to rise from US$ 1.3 billion in 2023 to US$ 1.8 billion in 2033.
