MACISTE is an automatic airless pump for application on tiles of all suspended abrasive products such as glazes, engobes and crystalline.
Maciste was created among the first in its segment and from its launch two years ago it has been very well perceived by our customers that appreciated its reliability and strength; these characteristics soon allowed Maciste to become a standard in the market.
MACISTE maintains accurate and constant pressure and works without pulsations.
The machine has an electric motor coupled with a diaphragm pump.
The diaphragms are mechanically moved by a system consisting of three pistons positioned at 120° with each other. This solution, compared to the other pumps using oil-dynamic system with hot oil in pressure, offers a more stable spray fan and a steady pressure all day long. Furthermore the distribution of the glaze on the tiles is more uniform and allows reaching a higher level of quality production.
Pumps using oil-dynamic system frequently face membrane break and the leak of hot oil pollutes the glaze. This affects the production (since the glaze is damaged) and your finances (since you have to replace the membranes). Our pump instead doesn’t use an oil-dynamic system that can create this sort of problems and due to its work principle all the costs are minimized avoiding the continuous replacement of membranes! Maciste pump does not need maintenance and this helps you save a lot of money. According to our tests and customers, Maciste pump can work for almost two years without any maintenance.
Moreover, Maciste pump has an alarm system that warns the user if any problem occurs (for example if the nozzle) is blocked, the hose is broken or the pressure changes). This system allows the user to work in other part of the factory since in case a problem occurs, the pump activates its sound alarms. The pump operation is run by an electrical panel with a very user friendly PLC that can be managed easily by the end user. This means that the pump it’s very easy to use!
The pump is provided with a self cleaning system. At the end of the day the user can clean the machine by placing the hose in a tank with water: just push a button and the pump cleans itself automatically.
The pump uses only a motor with a power of 0.75Kw and this allows great energy saving.
