Reliable Solution for High-Viscosity Fluids
Twin screw pumps are advanced pumping solutions developed for the reliable transfer of high-viscosity, sensitive, and challenging fluids. With dual screw technology that delivers continuous and pulsation-free flow, they offer high efficiency, low product loss, and stable performance in industrial processes.
Discover how hygienic twin screw pump technology can enhance the efficiency and reliability of your production line.
Design and Features
The twin screw pump features a robust design optimized for hygienic processes and demanding industrial applications. The pump casing and front cover are manufactured from corrosion-resistant AISI 316 stainless steel, providing high hygiene and reliability for food, pharmaceutical, and chemical applications.
Single or double hygienic mechanical seal options accommodate different process requirements, while CIP compatibility allows cleaning without dismantling the pump line—reducing maintenance time and increasing operational efficiency.

What Is a Twin Screw Pump?
A twin screw pump is a type of positive displacement pump that uses two synchronously rotating screws to draw in and discharge the fluid. This design enables continuous and controlled transfer without damaging the fluid’s structure, making it especially suitable for handling sensitive products.
Advantages of Twin Screw Pumps
Twin screw pumps offer key advantages such as the ability to operate across a wide viscosity range, low vibration, quiet operation, and high suction capability. In addition, their product-friendly design minimizes foaming, impact, and shear effects.
How Does a Twin Screw Pump Work?
Inside the twin screw pump, two screws rotate in opposite directions in perfect synchronization without contacting each other. When the fluid enters the suction side of the pump, it is captured within sealed cavities formed between the screws and the pump casing. As the screws rotate, these cavities convey the fluid smoothly and continuously from the inlet to the outlet.
The fluid is not compressed between the screws; therefore, product integrity is preserved, and foaming and shear effects are minimized. Thanks to its non-contact screw design, the pump can safely transfer both low- and high-viscosity fluids, as well as sensitive or particulate-containing products. Its steady and pulsation-free flow characteristics enhance process stability and deliver high efficiency in hygienic and industrial applications.
Which Industries Is It Suitable For?
Twin screw pumps are widely used across various industries thanks to their broad fluid compatibility, hygienic design, and stable performance.
