Supplying all types of Industy:
L&M’s pumps have become extremely popular with a number of German paper mills, who have since turned to L&M as their main supplier of new pumps, as well as spare parts, with some mills having completely refurbished parts of their process using L&M pumps exclusively. The reliability and efficiency of these pumps has been one of the main driving forces for this change in the German paper mills, as well as the very competitive pricing. Here in the U.K we have supplied a number of paper mills with new pumps, as well as becoming their main supplier for pattern parts. Other industrial process can also benefit from L&M’s range of high quality centrifugal pumps. This includes pumps suitable for the mining industry (where the LM ONE pump is most suited); pumps for the chemical industry; pumps for the water industry, and wastewater and sewage treatment industries; pumps for gravel and sand washing equipment and pumps for sugar and starch processing. Our pump range can handle many different types of applications, ranging from those that need heavy-duty pumps for highly abrasive or corrosive mediums, to applications pumping less difficult or harsh substances.
Other applications and industrial processes include pumps for:
- Food processing
- Air conditioning
- Water supply
- Pressure boosting
- Gardening
- Heating Exchange
- Breweries and Brewing
- Anaerobic digestion and biogas plants
- Wastewater treatment
- Clean water supply
- Chemical and pharmaceutical industries
- Pulp and paper manufacture and processing
- Sugar and starch processing
- Energy from waste industry

High Quality, German Engineered Pumps:
There are many different technical options for the pumps supplied by L&M, which help to fulfil a variety of different customer requirements. For example, pumps can come with a number of different impeller types, such as vortex impeller, open and closed impellers, semi-open impellers and vacuum impellers. The type of impeller will depend on the medium and the process. These centrifugal pumps also come with different lubrication options such as grease, oil or self-priming.
Pumps can be supplied with additional features, or simply supplied as bare-shafted. The scope of supply can include motor, baseplate and couplings - depending on your requirements. One of the special features of L&M’s centrifugal pumps is the option of including an adjustable wear plate, designed to improve pump efficiency. This wear plate has three screws which pull or push it closer or further from the impeller. This is operated form the outside of the pump. As the impeller and the wear plate wear, they become further apart (making the pump less efficient). The adjustable wear plate solves this problem by allowing the operator to bring the impeller and wear plate closer together when needed.
Pumps are offered in different material types, the standard being duplex stainless steel. Due to the poor quality of cat iron, pumps are no longer offered in this material. Super Duplex and other types of stainless steel are available upon request and are subject to availability. Higher material grades provided long term cost savings, as they often increase the longevity of the pump and its integral parts.
