One of the
innovative developments by founder
Robert Williamson is the Quick
Change Ink Pump System. Cut your
downtime dramatically with this easy
to change ink pump system.
Currently available pumps
require the need for tools and an
experienced repair technician to
perform the replacement of a pump.
The design of the Quick Change
Diaphragm Pump System enables
the user too quickly, and without
the aid of tools, replace a worn out
pump with minimum machine downtime
or labor hours. This would allow the
user to efficiently schedule the
repair of the suspect pump.
The system can be expanded to allow
the use of multiple pumps on a
single base. The pump is attached to
a base which has internal flow
passage ways that allow the use one
pump performing the task of others.
The systems base has internal flow
passage ways that are designed in
such a manner that it controls the
flow of liquid, not the individual
pump. The base design allows
adaptation of this system to any
applications that requires the flow
of liquid to complete it usefulness.
The base is also adaptable to allow
for all types of sensor, and devices
that could improve the systems
usefulness. My new designed pump
system allows the user to reduce
inventory of different pumps and
standardize. This results in less
spare parts inventory for the end
user. The pump itself comprises a
standard manufactured pump and parts
and replacing its original manifolds
with my special designed manifolds
to redirect it’s input and output
flow characteristics.
QuickFab designed pump manifolds
allow the pump to be removed or
replaced on its base without the use
of any tools. The pump is coupled to
its base by a system of anchoring
studs. The studs serve as guides
that ensure proper alignment and
retain the sealing mechanisms for
the passageways, which allow flow of
liquid from the redesigned pump to
its base. The redesigned pump’s
intake and exhaust valving is made
accessible for easy maintenance and
replacement without tools, or
disassembly of the redesigned pump
by an external retention device. Our
new pump manifolds are designed in
such a way that all the valving,
either intake or exhaust is
installed the same as to reduce the
possibility of a mistake in their
installation.
