MAAG Polymer pumps

Good volumetric efficiency enables pumping at slower speed, reduced shear rate, lower temperature and minimized dwell time. It all results in better pumping rate, higher polymer quality, greater reliability and longer service-life. The melt pumps and extrusion pumps from Maag Pump & Filtration Systems adhere to that principle. We offer custom gear pumps for your specific requirements to process and produce plastics. Solutions for polymer extraction, boosting, transferring to optimisation of the extruder energy balance. From low to high viscous applications. Thanks to the different housing designs, we can always offer an economical and technically optimal solution. Let’s talk!

The use of polymer pumps

The various types of gear pumps for polymer handling are all used to produce perfect plastics in masterbatch, compounding, recycling, extrusion and polymer production processes.

Pumping tasks vary from:

Polymer extraction for optimization of the melt quality, even under high vacuum
Polymer extraction for low and high viscous melts from reactors and degassing equipment
Polymer boosting of medium and low viscous polymers
Transport/ boosting prepolymers and oligomers for low viscous applications
Releasing the compounder from pressure generation to allow for a better energy balance and higher capacity
