EDDY Pump History

After getting his mother out of the USSR and into Poland, Dr. Weinrib headed to Czechoslovakia to compete in a national Sambo tournament. However, the night before the tournament, he swam across the Morava River and escaped into Austria. Dr. Weinrib pled for political asylum and told the Austrian government the horrors of communism and how he could no longer live in the Soviet Union. From there, Dr. Weinrib went straight to Munich, Germany, where he got a job being a doctor for the professional soccer team, Bayern Munich. While working full time, Dr. Weinrib also studied and earned his Ph.D. in Fluid Dynamics and master’s degree in Electro-Optics.

Warman slurry pumps

If you had a big pile of powder or crushed ore and wanted to move it from one place to another you would most likely use a slurry pump. These pumps can transport ore that has been mixed with liquid to form a slurry.

In the early 1930s, Charles Warman was a young draftsman working at a gold mine in Kalgoorlie, Western Australia. He saw that some improvements in slurry pump technology were needed and set out to improve the designs.

By 1938 he had made several improvements to slurry pump design and had taken out patents on his ideas. He improved the seal so that it was simple and required little maintenance. He introduced a rubber lining which could be replaced easily. The pumps were manufactured and marketed from Kalgoorlie until 1955, when they accounted for about 90 per cent of the Western Australian market.

Charles continued to improve the pump design. His company released new generations of pumps in 1950 and 1962. In the late 1950s the company moved to Sydney and built a new factory at Atarmon. A factory opened in North America in the early 1960s and in 1969 the company was taken over by a large mining group.

At the end of the century, Warman International had its main office in Sydney along with its manufacturing, marketing and distribution facilities. Warman-designed pumps were being manufactured in the USA, UK and Brazil, and there were licensees in Japan, China, the Philippines and India. There was a sales office in nearly every country in the world!
