Product Transfer & Pumping

Single-Screw Pump System

Food processors need equipment that moves product safely, consistently, and without harming texture or quality. Traditional pumping systems can struggle with high-viscosity foods or solid particles, resulting in a reduced flow rate and decreased production speed.

FPEC's single-screw pump system is suitable for a wide range of use cases. It can move viscous fluids, meat products, and other food products with ease. Our positive displacement pump can be adapted for use in various industries but excels in food and beverage production applications.

When you need a single-screw pump that's built to last under rigorous operating conditions, FPEC's equipment is the answer.

Addressing the Challenges of High-Viscosity Product Transfer

Processors frequently work with a variety of products, from thick batters to chunky mixtures. Standard centrifugal pumps often struggle with solid particles or high-viscosity fluid handling. They're prone to excessive pressure or blockages that bring production to a grinding halt. Inconsistent performance can slow production and impact profitability.

The single-screw pump system from FPEC ensures a continuous flow of food product.

The single screw is durable and easy to clean, and our self-priming pump is ideal for high-pressure applications, including fluid transfer and meat production. As a high-pressure solution, our screw pumps reduce product shear and promote gentle handling.

Technical Specifications of the Single-Screw Pump System

Our screw pumps include the following noteworthy features and pumping elements:

  • Large hopper capacities: Ranging from 750 lbs to 10,000 lbs
  • High output: Up to 20,000 lbs per hour, depending on product
  • Rugged construction: Positive displacement pump is engineered for durability
  • Compliant electrical components: Electrical elements and controls mounted in a NEMA 4X enclosure
  • Easy-to-clean design: 100% stainless steel fabrication

Our progressive cavity pump uniformly feeds product into a pump that can move large volumes of protein or other food items to the next part of your process. It's a great fit for smaller chunk products and industrial applications with limited floor space.
