VTP vertical axial-(mixed)-flow pump is a new general-elation product successfully developed by TKFLO by means of introducing the advanced foreign and domestic know how and meticulous designing on the basis of the requirements from users and the conditions of use. This series product uses the latest excellent hydraulic model, wide range of high efficacy, stable performance and good vapor erosion resistance; the impeller is precisely cast with a wax mould, a smooth and unimpeded surface, identical accuracy of the cast dimension to that in design, greatly reduced hydraulic friction loss and shocking loss, a better balance of impeller, a higher efficiency than that of the common impellers by 3-5%.   

What Does Shaft Mean In Pump?

In the context of a pump, the term "shaft" typically refers to the rotating component that transmits power from the motor to the impeller or other rotating parts of the pump. The shaft is responsible for transferring the rotational energy from the motor to the impeller, which then creates the necessary flow and pressure to move the fluid through the pump. 

The shaft in a pump is usually a solid, cylindrical metal component that is designed to be strong and durable, as it needs to withstand the torque and rotational forces generated during the pumping process. It is often supported by bearings to ensure smooth rotation and minimize friction. 

In some pump designs, the shaft may also be connected to other components such as seals, couplings, or drive mechanisms, depending on the specific type and configuration of the pump.
