Plant engineers can now choose one CIRCOR coolant pump to handle pump outlet pressure needs from 0 – 100 bar. The Allweiler EMTEC-C three-screw coolant pump introduced last year handles even higher pressure applications than before, increases overall speed and efficiency, and offers manufacturers one simplified pump suitable for keeping abrasive machine chips, particles and heat away from cutting surfaces in machine tool coolant service.
“By engineering one pump for any pressure condition, we’re covering the whole range of customer requirements with one brand and model,” said Daniel Stirpe, CIRCOR vice president and general manager, industrial pumps, EMEA, India and Asia. “We’re eliminating the unnecessary complexity of installing and maintaining multiple pumps, while continuing to provide the extreme precision and performance-focused fluid handling technology that the industry has come to expect of Allweiler.”
Used in high-pressure machine tool coolant service for metalworking, transfer lines, grinding and deep drilling machine applications, EMTEC-C users can customize their solution from a variety of sizes and spindle pitch angles. The pump accommodates tank-top, submerged and horizontal configurations.
The enhanced EMTEC-C continues to offer a lightweight, easy-maintenance three-screw pump solution that will go the distance with good, limited or poor lubricating liquids as well as abrasive fluids. Its patented reversed handing idler and integrated thrust compensation system, seal options, transparent backflow pipe and extra-long piston are all thoughtfully designed to improve durability and performance while minimizing flow loss.

- abrasive
abrasive
Substance used for grinding, honing, lapping, superfinishing and polishing. Examples include garnet, emery, corundum, silicon carbide, cubic boron nitride and diamond in various grit sizes.
- coolant
coolant
Fluid that reduces temperature buildup at the tool/workpiece interface during machining. Normally takes the form of a liquid such as soluble or chemical mixtures (semisynthetic, synthetic) but can be pressurized air or other gas. Because of water’s ability to absorb great quantities of heat, it is widely used as a coolant and vehicle for various cutting compounds, with the water-to-compound ratio varying with the machining task. See cutting fluid; semisynthetic cutting fluid; soluble-oil cutting fluid; synthetic cutting fluid.
- drilling machine ( drill press)
drilling machine ( drill press)
Machine designed to rotate end-cutting tools. Can also be used for reaming, tapping, countersinking, counterboring, spotfacing and boring.
- grinding
grinding
Machining operation in which material is removed from the workpiece by a powered abrasive wheel, stone, belt, paste, sheet, compound, slurry, etc. Takes various forms: surface grinding (creates flat and/or squared surfaces); cylindrical grinding (for external cylindrical and tapered shapes, fillets, undercuts, etc.); centerless grinding; chamfering; thread and form grinding; tool and cutter grinding; offhand grinding; lapping and polishing (grinding with extremely fine grits to create ultrasmooth surfaces); honing; and disc grinding.
- metalworking
metalworking
Any manufacturing process in which metal is processed or machined such that the workpiece is given a new shape. Broadly defined, the term includes processes such as design and layout, heat-treating, material handling and inspection.
- pitch
pitch
1. On a saw blade, the number of teeth per inch. 2. In threading, the number of threads per inch.
