WHAT WE ACHIEVE

operating efficiency.

cost reduction excluding import costs.

of the time in decreasing delivery time from 1-2 months to 2 weeks.

THE CHALLENGE

Dye pumps require parts that are usually imported at a high cost.

THE SOLUTION

We recreate these parts with inert materials with good mechanical and chemical properties suitable for contact with these dyes.

In addition, based on the idea of the customer, we designed one of the plates with a greater thickness than the other and thus obtained the expected result in the jet pressure.
