Rotary Positive Displacement Pump Briefing

Analysis and comment on the global market for specialist industrial pumps

Author: Mark Purvis

From syrup to blood, from asphalt to liquid carbon dioxide, from yoghurt to manure, rotary positive displacement pumps work day-in, day-out shifting some of the most challenging fluids that you could imagine pumping. They are used from deep under the sea to hospitals and dairies. They meet hundreds of critical niche pumping applications in every aspect of industry and modern living. This report identifies the major rotary pump types and explains how they operate, what they are used for, how they compete with each other and who makes them. The market for each pump type has its unique characteristics and competitive environment. This report will help you understand that environment and identify future opportunities and threats.

In recent years, the rotary positive displacement pump industry has been transformed from a collection of small, mostly family-owned companies to a global industry, dominated by major corporations. This report charts the growth of globally-operating companies like Colfax, Idex and SPX and looks at what the independent pump specialists are doing to compete. With the global economy in a severe downturn, the reports looks at the likely impact on rotary pump manufacturers and assesses the future prospects for the different pump types and their diverse markets.

In spite of the present economic gloom, new applications are opening up for rotary positive displacement pumps, especially in the oil and gas industry. The report details, for example, how developments in multiphase boosters and downhole progressing cavity pumps are driving change in the oil and gas sector, and creating brand new markets for their manufacturers.

 

Overview of contents

The introduction explains what a rotary positive displacement pump is, what the key characteristics are in this diversified sector and places the rotary positive displacement pump in context within the global industrial pump market.

The main part of the report contains in-depth chapters looking at

  • peristaltic pumps
  • progressing cavity pumps
  • gear pumps (external, internal and gerotor)
  • lobe pumps (including circumferential piston types)
  • screw pumps (twin and triple)

plus a chapter looking at the numerous other specialized rotary pump designs that are available, including sliding vane, liquid ring, flexible impeller, roller, eccentric disk and Archimedean screw pumps.

Each chapter reviews the history and principles of that particular pump design and explains the major areas of its application, with full reference to the specific characteristics of the pump. The areas of recent technical development are reviewed along with the advances in materials and manufacturing. The market structure and its evolution is described for each product type, the major players are identified and their strategies are assessed against future market prospects.

A full directory of manufacturers is provided for each pump type enabling the reader to identify all the significant manufacturers for each pump type around the world.
