What is the gear pump?

A gear pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses the meshing of gears to pump fluids. It consists of two or more gears that rotate within a casing, creating a vacuum that draws fluid in and then pushes it out as the gears turn. Gear pumps are known for their efficiency, reliability, and ability to handle high-viscosity fluids, making them commonly used in various industrial applications, such as hydraulic systems and lubrication. They typically provide a steady flow rate and can be designed for specific pressure requirements.
