Screw Pumps
Screw Pumps for Fluid
Mohno Pumps are a particular style of screw pump, classified as “progressive cavity pumps”, that are ideal for the food and beverage industry. Rather than a screw or auger that spins on a fixed center axis, mohno pumps use a central helical rotor (think of a spring that has been stretched out by pulling at both ends) that spins within a stator—an internal chamber that has double-helix channels running from one end to the other. The result is a series of cavities that run from the pump’s inlet to its outlet, that generate suction to pull product through, never changing in size or shape the entire way.
Progressive cavity pumps are particularly great at handling viscous, abrasive, and particle-laden fluid. With a bypass system, they can handle high pressure without risk of damage to seals, making this type of pump excellent for transferring product longer distances. Wear and tear on the internal stator require it to be replaced more frequently than parts on other pumps (highly dependent on usage and care).
