Helical lobe rotors reduce leaks in pumps
Article Abstract:
Tony Dye of Epicam, a company based in Linton near Cambridge has developed a design that achieves high degrees of compression and expansion with very low leakage. This was possible with the adoption of three-dimensional design for helical rotor lobes and having two lobes in the lobed rotor for every three apertures in the meshing rotor.
