NES Announces Capabilities for Centrifugal Pumps and Turbomachinery

Napoleon Engineering Services (NES), an ISO9001:2008 and AS9100C certified custom bearing manufacturing, bearing inspection, and bearing testing facility, has recently announced its custom bearing design and manufacturing capabilities for centrifugal pumps and turbomachinery applications. This technology was showcased by NES as exhibitors at the 2013 Turbomachinery & Pump Symposia, held from September 30th to October 3rd, 2013 at the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, Texas. The two events are designed to promote professional development, technology transfer, peer networking, and information exchange among industry professionals in the petrochemical, process, chemical, utility, contractor, and consulting fields and among the manufacturers of rotating equipment and fluid-handling equipment.

NES Bearings has the technical knowledge, expertise, and experience with high-performance bearing requirements to meet the stringent technical specifications required by the centrifugal pump industry. Centrifugal pumps are frequently critical components of manufacturing processes, pumping fluids that may include water, slurries, sludges, powders, corrosive chemicals and acids, petrochemicals, sewage, gases, and high-temperature media. As a result, bearing failures can be both dangerous and expensive and therefore the bearings used in the pumps must be both durable and highly reliable. NES Bearings extensive bearing manufacturing, evaluation and testing capabilities enables the company to produce bearings that perform reliably in even the most extreme pump applications.
