Piston pumps are positive displacement pumps and operate in an oscillatory manner, normally primed. The pump presented here is a dual-action piston pump. This means that each piston stroke is both an intake and delivery stroke.
The MT 134 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 piston 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. An augmented reality interface (Vuforia View) for mobile devices is available for visualising the processes and functions in a pump.
The disassembled piston pump with a set of small parts and an assembly device 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.
