Quick solutions for spare parts 

Breakdowns occur daily and customers are often faced with the difficult task of sourcing replacement parts that may not be available or have long delivery times. In such cases, KSB offers Reverse Engineering which is a process of rapid manufacturing that enables the production of high quality castings within a very short time frame. This solution allows you to keep your existing equipment in operation, avoid costly plant modifications. and production loss. Within the process KSB uses their own foundries and manufacturing facilities in the USA in order to streamline the process. The customer receives short delivery times for high quality individual parts such as impellers and diffusers or casings made of stainless steel, duplex, super-duplex or bronze and all kinds of special materials. We extend this technology beyond pumps to include all types of casted parts or prototypes produced by any manufacturer. Our expertise allows our customers to incorporate design changes and material upgrades in the process to improve the original components.
