At the heart of a centrifugal pump is the impeller and diffuser. We injection mold and machine these critical pump components for ideal performance.
As we have done for decades, we melt Noryl, Delrin, and Polycarbonate (Lexan) resin pellets and inject them into molds at Webtrol to make 4” and 6” impellers and diffusers.
Once molded, these pieces are machined and trimmed to specifications ensuring a precise tolerance between each impeller and diffuser. Then, we assemble the stack of impellers/diffusers to fit snugly together for optimum performance.
The injection molding and machining process allows us to maintain a high degree of accuracy in the manufacturing process, producing a more efficient pump.
