About Industrial Rotary Lobe Pump

INDUSTRIAL ROTARY LOBE PUMP

Product Description

Microtech Engineering manufactures high-quality Industrial Rotary Lobe Pumps designed for the efficient and hygienic transfer of viscous, semi-viscous, and shear-sensitive liquids across various industries. These pumps operate using two synchronized rotating lobes that create cavities to move the product smoothly from the suction side to the discharge side.

The pump is designed for handling products with different viscosities while maintaining a consistent flow. Its robust construction and hygienic design make it suitable for food, pharmaceutical, dairy, beverage, cosmetic, and chemical processing applications.

Available in SS 304 and SS 316 material options, the Industrial Rotary Lobe Pump can be customized according to flow rate, pressure, product viscosity, temperature, and process requirements.

• Easy cleaning and maintenance

• Mechanical seal arrangement

• Robust gearbox and motor assembly

• Customized flow rate and pressure options

• Optional variable frequency drive (VFD)

Working Principle

The Rotary Lobe Pump works on the positive displacement principle. It consists of two synchronized rotating lobes installed inside a specially designed pump casing.

As the lobes rotate in opposite directions, cavities are formed at the suction side, creating space for the product to enter the pump. The liquid is carried around the casing between the lobes and pump housing towards the discharge side.

As the cavities move towards the outlet, the product is displaced into the discharge pipeline. The synchronized lobes rotate without contacting each other, allowing controlled pumping with minimal mechanical wear when operated within the specified design limits.
