It is being reported that SGB Slurry pumps are so efficient that they have now replaced imported pumps used in China’s mines. Shijiazhuang Industrial Pump Factory (SGB) is looking for overseas clients willing to test the pumps. The pumps are designed by the China Coal Research Institute, Coal Preparation Branch and manufactured in China by SGB. “Chinese mining technology has made great strides over the past 30 years,” said SGB’s Barney Bai. “With an efficiency rating that is nearly 10% better than imported pumps, we want to offer overseas operations the chance to test our slurry pump against the ones they are currently using so they can see the difference for themselves. There is a misconception by customers outside China who see our products as cheap and of poor quality. This is our chance to prove them wrong, and showcase this highly efficient, wear resistant product.”
