Gear pumps for agricultural machines
Gear pumps are positive displacement pumps that are commonly used in various industrial applications to transfer fluids. Their efficiency, reliability, and precise fluid delivery are why gear pumps are trusted for varied applications. Primarily two metallic interlocking gears housed within a casing make up the working of gear pumps. When power is supplied to the gear pumps the interlocking gears rotate in opposite directions in process creating vacuum chambers between the gear teeth and the casing allowing the fluid to enter and exit the pump.
The gear pump works when the fluid is sucked into the vacuum created by the separating gears while rotating. The fluid is then carried off to the discharge port as the previously vacuum portion of the gear seals the fluid between the gear and the casing. As the gears are made of with precision, they do not allow any backflow and the continued meshing makes sure the fluid is pushed towards the outlet. This displacement mechanism ensures a steady flow of fluid with minimal pulsation.
Gear pumps offer several advantages over other types of pumps:
Despite their numerous advantages, gear pumps also have some limitations
Despite the limitations, there are more and more industries that employ gear pumps in their machine for their pumping needs. One such industry that relies heavily on pumping fluids, lubricants and power transmissions is agricultural industry. The precision offered by gear pumps as well as the reliability makes them ideal for use in agricultural machinery. Some of the agricultural machinery that use gear pumps are listed below;
