Stainless Steel Product Transfer and Pumping Systems
All equipment is 100% stainless steel and built to perform shift after shift with minimal maintenance and maximum uptime. Our inventory for the food processing industry includes:
Vacuum Transfer System Screw Conveyor
This version of our Vacuum Transfer System pairs vacuum technology with a metering screw conveyor for increased accuracy. The screw conveyor precisely meters product into the next step of your line, eliminating bottlenecks and maintaining consistent throughput.
- Vacuum transfer head and metering screw combo
- Transfer rates from 2,000 to 20,000 lb. per hour
- Portable vacuum pump system with integrated sensor controls
- PLC-based automation with Allen-Bradley components
- Fully stainless steel construction with quick-clean design
Vacuum Transfer System
Engineered for accuracy and automatic flow, FPEC’s original Vacuum Transfer System (VTS) is built to streamline downstream processes such as cooking and freezing. The entire system’s batching capabilities and PLC control ensure consistent product transfer in a clean, enclosed environment.
- Portable transfer head and vacuum pump cart
- Allen-Bradley control system with HMI
- Transfer rates up to 20,000 lb. per hour
- Built entirely from stainless steel for hygienic operation
Vacuum Metering System II
Engineered with a lower profile and improved portability, the VMS II provides all the benefits of vacuum metering in a system that’s easy to clean and move. The entire unit disassembles in minutes without tools, allowing for fast sanitation and changeover.
- Just 7 ft. tall with a 5 ft. cleaning position
- Lightweight, portable, and easy to maneuver
- Accurate scale-based vacuum metering
- Tool-free assembly and disassembly

Vacuum Metering System (VMS)
FPEC’s Vacuum Metering System (VMS) is a portable, high-volume transfer solution built to maintain accuracy and consistency. With optional Paddle Portioning, this system delivers a gentle, even dispense directly onto your conveying line.
- Transfer rates from 2,000 to 20,000 lb. per hour
- Allen-Bradley HMI and PLC-based controls
- Optional Paddle Portioning for precision portion control
- 100% stainless steel construction
- All controls UL-listed and engineered in-house
Twin-Screw Pump System
Built for viscous and hard-to-handle products, FPEC’s Twin Screw Pump System offers smooth and consistent transfer without damaging product texture. Designed with a variable-speed auger agitator, this system ensures reliable flow and prevents product bridging.
- Hopper capacities from 500 to 10,000 lb.
- Output rates up to 30,000 lb. per hour
- Twin screw stainless steel pump with variable speed control
- NEMA 4X electrical enclosure with slope-top box
- Hopper cover includes integrated safety switches
- Custom-built to match your operation
Single-Screw Pump System
Ideal for space-constrained environments or smaller chunk products, the Single Screw Pump System efficiently feeds high volumes of protein into a positive displacement pump. It maintains product integrity while delivering a consistent flow to the next processing phase.
- Output capacities up to 20,000 lb. per hour
- Hopper sizes range from 750 to 10,000 lb.
- Stainless steel construction and a positive displacement pump
- Integrated safety and UL-listed controls
- Available in custom configurations
Single Screw Vane Pump System
FPEC’s Single Screw Vane Pump System combines the steady feeding performance of a single screw system with the gentle handling of a vane pump. This setup is especially effective on sheet meat applications where shape and texture must be preserved.
- Output capacities up to 20,000 lb. per hour
- Hopper capacities from 750 to 10,000 lb.
- Stainless steel vane pump with integrated control system
- Hopper lid with built-in safety interlocks
- Fabricated entirely from stainless steel
Precision Pump System
For forming and portioning applications, the Precision Pump System offers exact flow control. With a twin screw design that compresses meat for high-efficiency forming, it delivers precision, throughput, and consistency in one package.
- Variable filling up to 14,000 lb. per hour
- Hopper sizes range from 500 to 5,000 lb.
- Minimal product degradation
- Optimized for high-speed forming lines
Positive Displacement Pump Cart
This mobile pump system is built for operations that need flexibility and reliability. The cart-based unit delivers high-volume transfer capacity with smooth, consistent operation. Designed with integrated safety and ease of cleaning in mind.
- Up to 20,000 lb. per hour throughput
- Mobile stainless steel cart with a positive displacement pump
- NEMA 4X control enclosure with slope-top box
- Custom-fabricated to match your plant layout
