The new state-of-the-art facility features a 10-meter-deep hydraulics test bed for large pumps, a digital monitoring system and a dedicated packaging area. With this expansion, Sulzer Mexico's pump facility enhances production capacity for its range of large pumps to help meet growing demand for infrastructure in the Americas. Sulzer has expanded its footprint in Cuautitlan Izcalli, an area within metropolitan Mexico City, to accommodate testing and assembly of high-performance flow equipment from its integrated service location and better support the current proliferation of infrastructure projects across America.
The new facility's test center boasts innovative hydraulics test infrastructure capable of handling a flow rate of 23,000 cubic meters per hour. This will support rigorous testing and validation of the pumps' performance to ensure maximum reliability and efficiency.
