Two Spindle Screw Pump

Listing ID #4043619

TUSHACO Twin Screw pumps employ a unique principle that makes it the only choice for certain applications. No other design of Positive  Displacement Rotary pumps offer so much versatility in the operating parameters with guaranteed total reliability and maintenance-free service.

Working Principle

A pair of specially profiled screw, machined integral from solid stock and well supported on antifriction bearings run in precision bored interchangeable casing liners.Each screw set has one RH and one LH screw engaging with a similar but opposite hand screw pair.

A pair of hardened and profile ground timing gears synchronize the screws to maintain a small but positive clearance between the flanks thus ensuring no metal to metal contact. The pumps can therefore run dry for sometime without any damage. This unique feature enables to run the pump even dry and handle fluids that do not have enough lubricating value and also very low or high viscous products. Consequently, since there is no metal to metal contact; wear and tear is reduced to the minimum, ensuring extremely long service life. With two pairs of screws running in the same casing, the internal velocities are very small - consequently the NPSHR is practically the lowest even when the pumps run at motor speeds and while handling viscous products. Opposed screw pitches totally eliminate axial thrusts. Relatively small diameters of screws enables the pump to operate at high speeds directly coupled to prime movers - without the need for speed reducers even while handling high sealings always under suction pressure, thus making use of simple, inexpensive seals. The axial flow without turbulence, rotation, churning, chewing guarantees gentle handling of products. Noise and vibration or ---- levels are about the lowest. Positive clearance between running parts makes it easier to construct the pump in different materials safely, especially in stainless steel, without the fear of seizing. Thus a variety of fluids can easily be handled by selecting the right materials of construction.

TUSHACO PUMPS have earned a reputation of being the most reliable Positive Displacement Pumps for practically any given application since 1968 due to the widest choice of designs available and excellent knowledge of application engineering. Continuous Research and Development together with modernization with CNC machines and testing facilities has enabled us to accept challenging jobs. Thousands of TUSHACO pumps in operation to the total satisfaction of the users in core industries throughout the country and abroad are a silent testimony.
