Rotary lobe pump for curds transfer in cheese production
Ensure gentle handling of delicate curds with rotary lobe pumps designed to minimize damage and maintain high quality during cheese production, optimizing your dairy processes with precision and ease.
Transfers and Mixes Curds in Cheese Production
Pierre Guerin, in partnership with POMAC, presents rotary lobe pumps specifically designed for curd transfer in cheese production. These pumps minimize curd damage through low-speed rotation and specially coated rotors, maintaining volumetric efficiency. Applications include various cheeses like mozzarella and cheddar. Constructed from stainless steel EN 1.4404 (AISI 316L), they adhere to EEC guidelines, ensuring hygienic standards and optimal clean-in-place performance. The pumps feature helix gears for low noise and efficient torque transmission, while horizontal or vertical inlet/outlet designs offer flexibility. Maintenance is simplified via the Front Pull-Out seal design, allowing easy disassembly without pipe disconnection except for the flange. Temporary cylindrical rotors and dismounting tools are included. The compact design with short shafts provides low buckling resistance, enhancing reliability. These pumps integrate seamlessly into continuous cheese production processes, offering durable materials and compliance with high industry standards.
