Cast Iron Vane Pump

Vane pumps are a type of hydraulic pump that use a series of vanes mounted within a rotor to generate hydraulic pressure. They are commonly used in a wide range of industrial applications due to their versatility and reliability.The basic construction of a vane pump consists of a housing, a rotor, and a set of vanes. The housing is typically made of cast iron or aluminum and is designed to house the rotor and vanes. The rotor is a cylindrical component that rotates within the housing, and the vanes are mounted within slots in the rotor. The vanes are typically made of a composite material, such as carbon or graphite, and are spring-loaded to maintain contact with the housing as the rotor rotates.
