Lobe pumps for viscous products

Lobe pumps (rotary, vane, flap) with a steam jacket are a type of pumping equipment specially designed for products that tend to solidify or crystallize quickly when the temperature drops.

The pump design incorporates the “steam jacket” method, which includes two types: the pump body or the pump cover. Steam or hot water can be supplied to the body or cover of the pump to maintain a constant temperature of the working chamber. This effectively prevents seal damage caused by material solidification during start-up.

The steam jacket can be widely used for products whose viscosity is highly affected by temperature. These pumps can be used in the production of sugar, chocolate, pharmaceuticals, butter, and more.

Applications:

The rotary food pump can be used to transport all kinds of materials with medium and high viscosity as well as high solid content.

Lobe pumps are widely used in the production of sugar, chocolate, dairy products, various syrups, concentrated fruit juice, jelly, yogurt, honey, ice cream, cake fillings, cereal porridge, soy protein, meat fillings, seasonings, tomato paste, caramel, bean paste, and other products.
