Gear pumps belong to the group of circulating piston pumps, which operate according to the positive displacement principle. They have a simple design and are easy to use.
The MT 136 assembly kit is part of the GUNT Practice Line for assembly, maintenance and repair, which has been designed for technical colleges and company training centres. The close link between theory and practice-based learning content is evident. The assembly and disassembly processes can easily be completed within standard lesson times. Only basic tools, all supplied with the kit, are required for assembly. The fit seats of the gear pump are designed so that the entire assembly can be carried out by hand.
The contemporary multimedia instructional materials provide extensive technical information as base for lesson design. The core element of the teaching materials is a complete set of drawings as files with lists of parts, single-part drawings, exploded views, assembly drawings and 3D drawings. All drawings are to standard and are dimensioned in accordance with production requirements. The set of drawings consists of DXF files, STEP files and PDF files. Assembly videos are also useful features. The files are also available free of charge online in the GUNT Media Center. Dimensions, tolerances and surface details in the drawings are given as imperial measurements (inch). An augmented reality interface (Vuforia View) for mobile devices is available for visualising the processes and functions in a pump.
The disassembled gear pump with a set of small parts and 4 assembly devices is delivered in the sturdy storage system with foam inlay. The MT 120.02 Transport roller or the MT 120.01 Trolley are suitable for convenient transport of the assembly exercise.
