Manufacture of other pumps and compressors

NACE code 28.13 covers the manufacture of a wide range of pumps and compressors used across various industries. These critical components play a vital role in the functioning of machinery, equipment, and industrial processes. The manufacture of pumps and compressors is an essential part of the broader machinery and equipment manufacturing sector, which is a key contributor to the overall economy.

The production of pumps and compressors typically involves several key steps. This includes the fabrication of component parts, such as casings, impellers, and rotors, through processes like casting, machining, and welding. The assembly of these parts into finished products is a crucial stage, often involving precision engineering and quality control measures. Manufacturers may also incorporate advanced technologies, such as computer-aided design (CAD) and computer numerical control (CNC) machinery, to enhance efficiency and precision in the manufacturing process.

The manufacture of pumps and compressors requires a range of raw materials, including metals, plastics, and specialized components. Manufacturers may source these inputs from various suppliers, including 24.10 Manufacture of basic iron and steel, 22.21 Manufacture of plastic plates, sheets, tubes and profiles, and specialized component manufacturers. In addition to raw materials, the industry relies on advanced machinery, tools, and skilled labor to produce high-quality pumps and compressors.

The pumps and compressors manufactured under NACE code 28.13 are used in a wide variety of applications, including industrial machinery, 28.11 Manufacture of engines and turbines, 28.12 Manufacture of fluid power equipment, and 33.12 Repair of machinery. These products are essential for the efficient operation of equipment and processes across numerous industries, making the manufacture of pumps and compressors a crucial component of the broader machinery and equipment manufacturing sector.
