This project addresses the urgent need for new materials which offer radically improved performance forthe manufacture of critical components for slurry pumps. These pumps, used extensively in coal and mineralmining and processing, are subject to impact, wear and corrosion. Current materials, typically white cast iron,are only able to provide some of the properties required in this extremely demanding environment, thuslimiting the service life of parts and increasing the risk of premature failure. This high value equipment is ofteninstalled in remote locations overseas making replacement difficult and costly. Moreover, failure can halt majormining operations, leading to substantial financial penalties. In WEAR a novel material solution, will bedeveloped using an advanced powder metallurgy approach. In the project samples of material will besubjected to accelerated life testing and the most appropriate material will be used to produce ademonstration part which will be tested in the field.

该项目解决了对新材料的迫切需求，这些新材料可以从根本上改善浆料泵关键部件的制造性能。这些泵广泛用于煤炭和矿物开采和加工，容易受到冲击，磨损和腐蚀。目前的材料，通常是白口铸铁，只能提供在这种极端苛刻的环境中所需的一些性能，从而限制了零件的使用寿命并增加了过早失效的风险。这种高价值的设备通常安装在海外偏远地区，更换起来既困难又昂贵。此外，采矿失败可能会导致主要采矿作业停止，并导致巨额经济处罚。在WEAR中，将使用先进的粉末冶金方法开发一种新型材料解决方案。在项目中，材料样品将进行加速寿命测试，最合适的材料将用于生产演示部件，并在现场进行测试。
