This Pump delivered an accurate flow from each stream with a substantially reduced pulse as compared to a normal peristaltic pump. The first of the new Metering Pumps to be placed in service were used in metering applications for spinfinishes containing Fluro-chemicals which were used mainly in Carpet Yarn or Upholstery Yarn Processes.
Some Pumps remain in service in such Processes.
Many others however have been placed in service in various Processes throughout the Textile Industry. Metered Water Application for wetting yarn prior to its entering the spindle or crimper in order to enhance crimp. Metering Application of Emulsions or Solutions containing very low amounts of solids. Metering Application of Anti-stat to Industrial Filament FiberGlass. Metering Size to Textile Filament FiberGlass.
