Whatever recipe you are blending, mixing or formulating - food, beverage or pharmaceutical - there's one ingredient that can put the whole process at risk. A human. So introducing an automated in-line or batch blending system to the mix will increase efficiency, productivity and repeatability of your process. And if it's an ERIKS system, it can do even more.

Extensive testing has suggested that a large amount of energy required in a pump was to overcome the resistance in the pump and used to fill dead space in the air chambers. While another major issue is pumps stalling when turned down to lower air pressures to save energy or being pumped against a closed valve.

Choosing the right chemicals pump is a matter of concentration. While everyone knows that sulphuric acid, for example, is exceptionally corrosive, its corrosiveness depends on its concentration and temperature. So which material to choose for a pump when sulphuric acid is the pumping medium is not as simple as it might seem.
