MECHANICAL SEAL

• Mechanical seals are devices used to prevent leakage of

fluids, such as liquids and gases, in various types of
equipment and machinery. They are commonly used in
pumps, compressors, mixers, and other rotating
equipment.
• A mechanical seal consists of two main components: a
stationary element and a rotating element. The stationary
element is typically mounted on the equipment housing,
while the rotating element is attached to the rotating shaft.
These two elements come together to create a seal that
prevents fluid from escaping. The stationary element usually
has a face that is fixed and remains in contact with the
rotating element. The rotating element has a face that moves
with the shaft. These faces are typically made of materials
such as carbon, ceramic, or tungsten carbide, which are
selected based on the specific application requirements.
MECHANICAL SEAL COMPONENTS AND
FUNCTION
Mechanical seals manifechring
process

• The manufacturing process of mechanical

seals typically involves several steps:

1. Design
2. Material selection
3. Machining
4. Assembly
5. testing.
• Mechanical seals are widely used in various industries to
prevent leakage of fluids in pumps, compressors, and
other rotating equipment. They consist of several
components that work together to create a seal and
maintain the integrity of the system.
FUNCTION
1. Stationary Face:
Also known as the primary ring or seat, the stationary face is the
non-rotating part of the mechanical seal. It is typically made of a
hard material such as carbon or ceramic and provides a sealing
surface against which the rotating face mates.

2. Rotating Face:
The rotating face, also called the mating ring or seal ring, is the
part of the mechanical seal that rotates with the shaft. It is
usually made of a softer material, such as carbon, and makes
contact with the stationary face to create a seal.

3. Secondary Sealing Elements(O-ring):

These elements are responsible for preventing fluid leakage
along the shaft. They include o-rings, elastomeric boots, or
bellows. Secondary seals provide additional protection against
leakage in case the primary seal faces fail
• 4. Springs:
Springs are used to maintain the necessary force between the
stationary and rotating faces, ensuring proper contact and
sealing. They exert axial or radial pressure to compensate for face
wear and maintain the seal's integrity.

• Gland:
The gland is a housing or cavity that holds the mechanical seal in
place and provides a barrier between the process fluid and the
external environment. It prevents the leakage of fluid from the
system and often incorporates a means for flushing or lubricating
the seal faces.

• Flush and Quench Connections:

In some applications, it is necessary to introduce an external
fluid, such as water or a compatible liquid, to cool the seal faces,
flush away debris, or provide lubrication. Flush and quench
connections enable the controlled flow of such fluids into the seal
assembly.
• Set Screw and Drive Collar:
These components are used to secure and properly
position the mechanical seal on the shaft. The set screw
locks the seal in place, while the drive collar allows for
adjustment of the axial position of the seal faces.

• Sleeve and Shaft:

The sleeve is a protective covering that fits over the shaft
and provides support for the mechanical seal. The shaft is
the rotating component of the equipment and transfers
power to the seal faces.
MECHANICAL SEAL MANUFACTURING
PROCESS

• Manufacturing processes refer to the methods and techniques used to

transform raw materials or components into finished products. There are
various manufacturing processes employed in different industries, and the
specific process used depends on factors such as the type of product,
materials involved, production volume, and desired quality.

• Step1- Casting
• Step 2- Machining

• Quality assurance (QA) is any systematic process of
determining whether a product or service meets
specified requirements. QA establishes and maintains
set requirements for developing or manufacturing
reliable products.

• According to WHO, quality assurance is a wide-ranging

concept covering all matters that individually or
collectively influence the quality of a product. With
regard to pharmaceuticals, quality assurance can be
divided into major areas: development, quality control,
production, distribution, and inspections. ISO 9000
defines as "part of quality management focused on
providing confidence that quality requirements will be
fulfilled".
QUALITY ASSURANCE PROCESS

• Develop Quality Standards and Procedures

• Training and Education
• Process and Product Inspections
• Testing and Quality Control
• Corrective and Preventive Actions
• Continuous Improvement
• Documentation and Record-Keeping
BENEFITS OF QUALITY ASSURANCE
PROCESS

• Cost Savings

• Efficiency Boosts

• Improvements In Customer Satisfaction

QUALITY CONTROL

• ISO 9000 defines quality control as "A part of quality management

focused on fulfilling quality requirements". It is that part of GMP
concerned with sampling, specification & testing, documentation &
release procedures which ensure that the necessary & relevant
tests are performed & the product is released for use only after
ascertaining its quality.

 Functions
• QC is responsible for the day-to-day control of quality within the
company.

• This department is responsible for analytical testing of incoming

raw materials and inspection of packaging components, including
labelling.

• They conduct in-process testing when required, perform

environmental monitoring, and inspect operations for compliance.
THE ROLE OF QUALITY CONTROL IN
MECHANICAL SEALS

• Inspection of Components
• Material Verification
• Dimensional Checks
• Leakage Testing
• Performance Evaluation
• Documentation and Traceability
CONTROL

• The process through which the standards are established and met
with standards is called control. This process consists of observing
our activity performance, comparing the performance with some
standard and then taking action if the observed performance is
significantly too different from the standards.

 The control process involves a universal sequence of steps as

follows:
• 1. Choose the control object
• 2. Choose a unit of measure
• 3. Set the standard value
• 4. Choose a sensing device which can measure
• 5. Measure actual performance
• 6. Interpret the difference between actual and standard
• 7. Taking action.
Need for Controlling Quality
 In the absence of quality, the following will result:
• 1. No yardstick for comparing the quality of
goods/services.
• 2. Difficulty in maintaining consistency in quality.
• 3. Dissatisfied customers due to increased maintenance
and operating costs of products/services.
• 4. Increased rework cost while manufacturing
products/providing services.
• 5. Reduced life time of the products/services.
• 6. Reduced flexibility with respect to usage of standard
spare parts.
• 7. Hence, controlling quality is an essential activity.
INSPECTION
• Inspection is an important tool to achieve quality concept. It is
necessary to assure confidence to manufacturer and aims
satisfaction to customer. Inspection is an indispensable tool of
modern manufacturing process. It helps to control quality,
reduces manufacturing costs, eliminate scrap losses and
assignable causes of defective work.

• The inspection and test unit is responsible for appraising the

quality of incoming raw materials and components as well as the
quality of the manufactured product or service. It checks the
components at various stages with reference to certain
predetermined factors and detecting and sorting out the faulty or
defective items. It also specified the types of inspection devices
to use and the procedures to follow to measure the quality
characteristics.
TYPES OF INSPECTIONS
Purpose of Inspection

• 1. To distinguish good lots from bad lots.

• 2. To distinguish good pieces from bad pieces.
• 3. To determine if the process is changing.
• 4. To determine if the process is approaching the
specification limits.
• 5. To rate quality of product.
• 6. To rate accuracy of inspectors.
• 7. To measure the precision of the measuring
instrument.
• 8. To secure products-design information.
• 9. To measure process capability
Objectives of Inspection

• 1. To detect and remove the faulty raw materials

before it undergoes production.
• 2. To detect the faulty products in production
whenever it is detected.
• 3. To bring facts to the notice of managers before
they become serous to enable them discover
weaknesses and over the problem.
