Reconditioning solutions to reduce your maintenance cost

Adapt your pumps to your new requirements, as well as systems up-grade, for you to adapt your Systems to your new production challenges.

Rotors reconditioning

The reconditioning includes:

  • an expertise and a wear control to verify the technical feasibility
  • an offer at 50% of the price of a new rotor
  • de-chroming, material refilling if necessary, re-chroming, polishing, supply and assembly of rings, as well as dimensional control
  • the reshipping of the reconditioned equipment

 

Mechanical seals reconditioning

The reconditioning includes:

  • the cleaning, the disassembly, and the complete expertise for each component
  • an offer at 20% of the price of a new gasket
  • the replacement of seals and springs
  • the lapping of the faces with a control of flatness and of the operating dimensions
  • the reshipping of the reconditioned equipment

All these operations benefit from a follow-up and an archive. PCM Service Center in Chamtpocé-sur-Loire performed this service.

Improvement solutions to optimize your process

Rotors improvement

To improve your pumps and equipment, there are several solutions to fight against corrosion, abrasion or both combined: chromium oxide, tungsten carbide....

Steps

  • analysis of technical parts and definition of customer needs
  • proposal of a feasibility study. On a used rotor, coating modification is possible.
  • if the improvement is feasible, our teams proceed with pickling, material reloading, specific coating (tungsten carbide, chromium oxide, etc.), polishing and dimensional control
  • shipment of material back to the customer.

 

Drive improvement

A feasibility study is proposed on several technical points:

  • energy consumption calculations,
  • optimization in relation to current standards (IE3, IE4, IE5),
  • mechanical and configuration adaptations.

A detailed quotation is provided for the improvements.

The modifications are then carried out on site or at the PCM Service Center with:

  • test after modifications made
  • parameters setting

PCM guarantees the start-up of your equipment. Our teams provide you the technical documentation as well as the bill of material.
