Industrial Products

At Real Carbon Inc., we are committed to producing the highest-quality carbon fiber products, utilizing the latest technologies and materials.

The Industrial market, a catch-all term for a diverse range of applications and customers, has enabled us to showcase our technology through the co-development of several products for various clients and applications.

Typically, weight and stiffness are key criteria; however, our customers have allowed us to expand our understanding of value planks to include no-crane installation and dramatically reduced bearing wear, leading to substantially lower operating costs in both initial and ongoing installation, as well as repair and maintenance.

Case Study: Proprietary Pump Housing Adds Value

A proprietary carbon fiber magnetic coupling containment shell adds value.

Benefits of Carbon Fiber Magnetic
Coupling Containment Shell

  • Thrust & radial sleeve bearing can be integrated into the can
  • Eliminates mechanical coupling wear and alignment issues.
  • Lower weight, mainly when other pump components are constructed with similar composites.
Composite pump housing

Eliminates 15 – 25% power loss from the metallic barrier

  • Requires lower-cost magnets
  • Oftentimes allows for smaller motors
  • Compact package size due to smaller motor and magnets
  • No heat added to chemicals, due to eliminating eddy current loss
  • Lower electricity cost

Superior chemical resistance

    • Carbon is resistant to most chemicals
    • A variety of chemical-resistant composite materials are available.
    • Coatings are offered to enhance chemical resistance and abrasion resistance further.
    • Sensors such as those for wear and temperature can be integrated to monitor conditions and alert in the event of excessive bearing wear (magnet rub against shell).

Composite properties

    • Excellent chemical resistance
    • High strength. Can handle very high pressure with minimal shell distortion
    • Light weight
    • Temperature capability: -40 to 200 °C continuously.
    • Tight seal, full vacuum to 50 bar

Applications

Conditions where a barrier is desirable between the driving mechanism and the driven device.

  • Magnetic drive pumps
  • Magnetic drive mixers
  • Canned motor pumps
  • Underwater propelled devices
