The report opines that leading manufacturers of mining pumps, in a bid to retain their brand equity, are focusing on upgrading the quality and efficiency of their products. Xylem introduced Flygt 2400 stainless steel pump in 2016, which was the first stainless steel-only pump in the series designed for mining applications. The product was a durable and super-high head pump meant for transporting chemically-aggressive mine water. Apart from this, manufacturers are also vying to make their products capable of making a notable contribution toward enhancing efficiency of a mine, primarily in terms of energy consumption.
According to the research study, the sales of mining pumps with small capacity (up to 500 g/m) remain the highest with an estimated figure of 2 404 279 units by 2018-end, followed by medium and high capacities.
