IMPELLERS It was a natural evolution for Padgett-Swann Machinery to addimpellers to its product line due to the companys expertise in casting and repairing marine propellers. |
 |
We repair all types of impellers - from 9 to 180 - in all types of materials using the same repair techniques, alloys, expertise, and skill required to repair propellers. Customers in pump manufacturing, power plants, wastewater treatment, phosphate mines, and chemical plants have discovered that use of these same time-tested techniques enhance the performance of the impeller tremendously. Repairs are performed economically, efficiently, and expertly, thus cutting maintenance costs, extending the life of the impeller, and improving the performance of the pump. New impellers cast in stainless steel and various other alloys are also available.
