Progressive Cavity Pump Design

Subtor is an industry recognized manufacturer of progressive cavity pumps. We apply significant importance to the abilities of our technical staff when it comes to design and development details. We have 10 staff members in charge of technology and product research and development, and 5 highly skilled employees for process development projects.

The members of our technical department are educated and trained to skillfully apply the 3D design software, Autodesk Inventor to design products, components, and production toolings to significantly improve working efficiency and to create outstanding products for our customers.

The technical sector of Subtor Germany is a division with more than 20 years of experience in the development, design, and production of progressive cavity pump products, using the self-developed progressive cavity pump stator design software. It allows our engineers to design and test the stators without investing time and resources into building numerous prototypes.
