Lutze and Nomig: Sustainable solutions for long-term protection
Three years ago, Lutze was called in by a Dutch customer to solve a complex challenge. A cast iron pump housing of a macerator, which after 1.5 years of use was suffering from severe wear and corrosion due to low pH values, needed better protection to extend its lifespan.
We then decided to have the pump housing fitted with a SiC casting polymer by Nomig. This intervention would certainly make the pump housing more resistant to the harsh conditions in which it operated.
Now three years later, the grinding ring urgently needed to be replaced and this gave us the opportunity to take another look at the pump housing from the inside. Thanks to the durable protective layer applied at the time, the pump housing showed only minimal wear and very little chemical corrosion this time. The pump housing that has now been in use for 3 years looks much better than the untreated pump housing after 1.5 years!
The grinding ring has now been replaced and the pump housing has been given a good refresh. The pump (the pump housing) can now certainly last for years to come.
This successful collaboration shows how important it is to invest in high-quality protection solutions. Thanks to Lutze's expertise and Nomig's innovative products, the customer is assured of a longer lifespan for his pump. Due to the SiC casting polymer treatment of the pump housing, the customer is assured that their maintenance costs can be significantly reduced and the lifespan of their pump is extended.
All the advantages of this solution in a row:
- Extended lifespan of critical components
- Reduced wear and chemical attack
- Less maintenance and lower costs
