A master/slave pump assembly employs a dual diaphragm pump as the master pump. An abrasive fluid, such as a resin containing abrasive particles, can be pumped by the dual diaphragm pump without the damage that would result from exposure of seals to the abrasive fluid. The slave pump, which can pump a catalyst or other secondary fluid, is driven in response to movement of the diaphragms and the shaft connecting the two diaphragms. Hydraulic and electrical means can be employed to communicate a force or signal dependent upon the actual mass flow rate of the primary fluid, regardless of viscosity or environmental factors, to the slave pump. An adjustable linkage is employed to alter the ratio of the mass flow rates of the two fluids.
