Cooperation Case of Wear-resistant Bushing for the Centrifugal Pump
Our client is a renowned paper equipment service provider in South America, specializing in supplying core wear-resistant components for centrifugal pumps to large local paper mills. Their services cover critical processes including pulping, waste paper recycling, and high-consistency pulp transportation. For certain models of Andritz centrifugal pumps, cobalt alloy components are required to withstand the abrasive erosion caused by locally sourced pulp containing high levels of fibrous impurities. Previously, the client relied on high-cost imported wear sleeves from the United States, which significantly compressed their profit margins and hindered their ability to flexibly respond to downstream paper mills' small-batch replenishment demands.
SYTOP possesses over 20 years of experience in cobalt alloy wear-resistant components and operates its own manufacturing facility. In 2018, we became the preferred supplier for this client. Addressing their consistent demand for cobalt-based materials, we focused on ST 12 and ST 6 cobalt alloys. Based on client drawings, we precisely replicated their original product specifications. Utilizing precision casting and CNC machining processes, we deliver high-quality nested wear sleeves for centrifugal pumps. Our key advantage lies in significantly reducing supply costs compared to U.S. imports while setting extremely low minimum order quantities. This fully accommodates the client's flexible bulk procurement needs, with comprehensive quality control ensuring products perfectly meet specifications.
Years of collaboration have delivered tangible benefits: the cost-effective cobalt alloy liners directly reduce procurement expenses, while low MOQs eliminate inventory buildup, enabling on-demand replenishment and agile response to downstream demand. Customers highly value our product quality and supply terms. Beyond centrifugal pump wear sleeves, they also source other cobalt alloy wear-resistant components from us. This partnership not only enhances their regional market competitiveness but also opens the access to the South American paper equipment supply market.
