Mining – Deepsea nodule collection

Robust pumps and filters for extreme process conditions

Within mining and deep-sea applications, installations are exposed to a combination of abrasive media, corrosive environments, and extreme operating conditions. Processes often need to operate in remote locations or under circumstances where maintenance is complex and costly, while uninterrupted operation remains essential.

ARBO supports these demanding applications not only as a manufacturer of thermoplastic pumps and filters, but above all as a technical knowledge partner. Drawing on decades of experience with corrosive and abrasive processes, we actively advise on material selection, engineering, and process optimization. By combining in-depth expertise in thermoplastic materials, in-house engineering capabilities, and practical field experience, we develop solutions specifically tailored to each customer's process conditions. The result is reliable, low-maintenance pumps and filters that withstand extreme environments and deliver predictable long-term performance where standard solutions often fall short—even at depths of 5,000 meters below sea level.
