The working principle of gear pumps is based on the positive displacement principle, which moves the fluid through the meshing of two gears. The gears are usually made of PEEK, Hastelloy, etc. and are located in a sealed housing to prevent leakage.<\/p>\n

The gears are arranged in such a way that they rotate in opposite directions and mesh with each other, forming a sealed cavity between them. As the gears rotate, they trap a certain amount of fluid between them and pass it through the pump. The fluid is then forced out of the pump through the outlet.<\/p>\n

Gear pumps<\/a> can be divided into several types based on the design and application. Some of the most common types of gear pumps include:<\/p>\n

External gear pumps:<\/strong> The gears of external gear pumps are located outside the pump housing. They are usually used for low viscosity fluids and are available in single and dual gear configurations.
\nInternal gear pumps:<\/strong> The gears of internal gear pumps are located inside the pump housing. They are usually used for high viscosity fluids and are available in single and dual gear configurations.
\nSpur gear pumps:<\/strong> The gears of spur gear pumps are of spur gear design. They are usually used for low to medium viscosity fluids and are available in single and dual gear configurations.
\nHelical gear pumps:<\/strong> The gears of helical gear pumps are of helical gear design. They are typically used for high viscosity fluids and are available in single and double gear configurations.
\nHerringbone gear pumps:<\/strong> The gears of herringbone gear pumps are of a herringbone gear design. They are typically used for high viscosity fluids and are available in single and double row configurations.
\nWorm gear pumps:<\/strong> Worm gear pumps use a worm gear design and are typically used for high viscosity fluids and low flow rates.
\nScrew pumps:<\/strong> Screw pumps use a gear design and are typically used for high viscosity fluids, low flow rates, and high pressure applications.
\nIt is important to note that the above classifications are general and there are different variations and designs within each category to suit specific applications.<\/p>\n

When selecting a gear pump, the following guidelines should be considered:<\/p>\n
