Made in Italy
Just a few months after installing the new thermoplastic welding machine, CDR Pompe is once again investing in upgrading its machinery with a view to expanding the area dedicated to testing centrifugal pumps.
Two new electric tools have been introduced:
- a third drag bench, which joins the other two smaller ones already in use at CDR Pompe
- a new electrical panel with an inverter
The new instrumentation will allow testing of centrifugal pumps up to a maximum power of 90 kW.
In fact, every pump assembled at our workshop undergoes a performance test at the operating point; therefore, CDR Pompe has decided to invest in a new electrical test bench (torque meter) that connects the pump to the electric motor and measures the pump’s power consumption at the motor shaft, to ensure ever-greater product reliability and quality.
Torque meter: how does it work?
The functionality of the new torque meters is to measure the power at the pump shaft with the goal of obtaining a more precise measurement compared to calculations made with individual motor efficiencies.
This will allow for more precise commercial curves and at the same time improve the development of new prototypes and new products through faster and more reliable measurements of pump performance and consumption.
CDR Pompe operates with a view to optimizing production and achieving ever-higher levels of quality, and investments in its production facilities serve as the starting point for this goal.
