The demo pump was great!

The demo pump was great! Tacmina made it so easy for our process engineers to determine whether the pump would work for us or not. The fact that everything was tested and ready to go when it arrived enabled us to quickly perform a trial during a break in the action on our line. We ended up running the demo for the entire two-week period with excellent results. Unfortunately, the lead time for a new pump was a bit long but the Tacmina folks came through and let us keep the demo until our new pumps arrived.

Tacmina's support of their demo pump was beyond exceptional.

Tacmina’s support of their demo pump was beyond exceptional. We scheduled two days of testing at a third-party test site. When we arrived on site we checked the material the lab sent. It was much higher viscosity than we original specified. The Tacmina technician drove 150 miles to pick up special check valves to ensure that we could run a valid test within our window of opportunity. The pump performed better than expected and we are now using them in all our North American coating operations.

Tacmina support is the best in the business!

Tacmina support is the best in the business! We looked at testing a pump for a while before we actually did it. We just assumed that no one outside our company would understand what we were attempting to do and that it would end up being a huge ordeal – quite the contrary. The Tacmina folks were very knowledgeable in our industry. They set up a pump for us to try and we received it within a week. Now our competitor is wondering how we are able to beat their price and delivery on a better-quality product. Smoothflow to the rescue!

The people at Tacmina USA were very helpful

Our situation was a bit different in that we already had Tacmina pumps but our product changed and we needed to test some of the peripherals that Tacmina offers. The people at Tacmina USA were very helpful and got us the slurry check valves and refiners we needed for the trial. Testing actually exposed a problem elsewhere which meant that we did not need these parts. In the end, the shipping costs for the test parts was a lot less expensive than buying things we didn’t need for a problem that wasn’t pump-related.

What a great option!

What a great option! We used the demo pump to make samples for our customer and when they approved them, we were able to convert the demo to a rental until the pump we ordered arrived. We even kept the demo for an extra couple days to be sure the new pump worked as advertised. The business we gained from our new customer paid for the rental and new pump ten time over and counting! Thanks for the help Jim.

It's easy! Just do it.

It’s easy! Just do it. All kidding aside, the demo option was huge for us. It enabled us to prove the technology without having to budget for a $20K pump that may or may not have worked. In our case, it worked great. Thanks!

Tacmina-1, other guys-0

Just a quick note from our Production Team – we really appreciate you coming out to help us get the demo going. We don’t have full time engineering support at this location so it is tough for us to test ideas but you guys were great. It’s been almost two weeks of non-stop running and pump hasn’t skipped a beat. So far, Tacmina-1, other guys-0.

Now we use these things everywhere!

Within three days of our first call, we received the test pump. To our surprise it was pre-wired and all of the parts needed to adapt it to our process were in the shipping container. We rolled it out, plugged it in and it worked flawlessly. Now we use these things everywhere.

I wish we would have tried one of these years ago!

Many thanks to Douglass for all his help with the demo pump. We were somewhat unfamiliar with diaphragm pumps but are quickly becoming experts. I wish we would have tried one of these years ago. We would be much further along in our research. Thanks Doug!
