In such a competitive and sometimes lucrative market such as slurry pumps, it is common to see replicator companies offering spares and wears for original equipment manufacturers' (OEM) equipment. They are usually marketed as 'equivalent' or 'low price' and can be very appealing to the equipment users. Beware of imitations, it is possible that what appears to be a good upfront saving can actually create more problems and costs over time.

Genuine OEM parts are rigorously designed, manufactured, tested and continuously improved to fit the equipment they are meant for. Not many replicators adhere to industry standards for quality management, such as ISO:. 3D scanning of parts deviates from design tolerances which can lead to fitment issues, premature failure or even incidents when handling replicated parts with certified OEM lifting tools.

Unfortunately, a part breakage can lead to a total machine failure, plant shutdown and increased safety risks. Replicated parts are not subjected to OEM quality control standards and may be sold without a warranty or with a very limited one. Should a pump fail, and it is found to be fitted with a replicated part, the warranty may be voided - resulting in a large repair bill. By using genuine OEM parts, you will continue to benefit over the life of your equipment warranty period.
The key to getting the most out of your equipment is using the right parts, understanding how the equipment works and doing preventive and predictive maintenance. OEM parts are designed to work at peak performance within the equipment they are meant for. A replicator will supply what looks to be the correct part, but they will not be able to provide you with the product support and in-depth knowledge of its design and operating capabilities.
