Here is an example of transporting okara (moisture content 80-82%) in the food sector. Previously, it was transported using other volumetric pumps, but there were issues with foreign matter contamination and the running costs associated with parts replacement due to wear were too high. Therefore, a non-contact screw conveyor type twin-screw pump was introduced. This reduced running costs by 80%, allowed for a larger inlet, and eliminated concerns about bridging with paddles, resulting in stable transport conditions. [Case Summary] - Purpose: Improvement of wear resistance and resolution of foreign matter contamination issues - Model: Twin-screw pump SQW type - Liquid name: Okara (moisture content 80-82%) - Issues: Problems with foreign matter contamination and high running costs due to parts replacement from wear - Improvements: Running costs reduced by 80% with the non-contact screw conveyor type twin-screw pump *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of transferring bread dough in the food sector. We wanted to portion the bread dough mixed by the mixer into trays, but due to the high liquid viscosity, there were no pumps available for transfer, resulting in time-consuming manual work. By using a deforming pump, we were able to quantitatively portion the bread dough, which was moved from the mixer to a hopper, with the push of a button, leading to reduced labor costs and improved production efficiency. [Case Overview] ■ Purpose: Self-priming from the hopper ■ Model: VQ type twin-screw pump with degassing function ■ Liquid Name: Bread dough ■ Issues: There were no pumps available for transfer, leading to time-consuming manual work ■ Improvements: By using a deforming pump, it became possible to quantitatively portion with the push of a button *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of the transfer of minced meat in the food sector. Previously, a snake pump was used, but it required pushing the transfer liquid into the pump with a pusher from the mixer, leading to issues such as space constraints and labor-intensive operations. By using a deforming pump, self-priming from the hopper without a pusher became possible. Additionally, the use of a non-contact pump reduced the risk of foreign material contamination and shortened the time required for disassembly and cleaning. [Case Overview] ■ Purpose: Transfer from mixer to filling line ■ Model: Twin-screw pump with degassing function, VQ type ■ Liquid Name: Minced meat ■ Issues: There was a risk of foreign material contamination with contact pumps, and disassembly and cleaning took a long time. ■ Improvements: By using a deforming pump, self-priming from the hopper without a pusher became possible. The transfer while degassing in the subsequent molding line reduced the defect rate in molding. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of the transfer of curry in the food sector. We were using an existing rotary pump, but due to noticeable cleaning issues during CIP cleaning, we were disassembling and cleaning it every time. By using a screw pump, we were able to achieve complete CIP cleaning with just one pump, eliminating the need for daily disassembly cleaning, which led to a reduction in labor costs and an improvement in production efficiency. 【Case Overview】 ■ Objective: Reduction of daily cleaning time through CIP cleaning ■ Model: Dual-shaft screw pump, SQ type ■ Liquid Name: Curry ■ Issues: Noticeable cleaning issues during CIP cleaning required disassembly cleaning every time ■ Improvements: Using a screw pump led to a reduction in labor costs and an improvement in production efficiency *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of the transfer of liquid eggs in the food sector. Existing vane pumps experience rapid wear due to the entry of eggshells, leading to changes in egg quality. By using a non-contact screw pump, we have made it less prone to wear even when shells enter, resulting in fewer changes in liquid quality. 【Case Overview】 ■ Objective: To improve wear resistance and transport without changes in liquid quality ■ Model: Dual-shaft screw pump, SQ type ■ Liquid Name: Liquid eggs ■ Issues: Existing vane pumps wear out quickly due to the entry of eggshells ■ Improvements: By using a non-contact screw pump, it has become less prone to wear and fewer changes in liquid quality *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of transporting fruits (peaches and strawberries) in the food sector. Fruits were being transported on a conveyor and crushed in a mixer, but this batch process took time, required space, and was also quite dirty. Therefore, a twin-screw pump with a screw conveyor was introduced. By increasing the inlet size, peaches and strawberries could be directly fed in and transported inline while being crushed. [Case Overview] - Purpose: To combine the roles of the conveyor and mixer into one machine and eliminate dirt - Model: Twin-screw pump, SQW type - Liquid Name: Fruits (peaches and strawberries) - Issues: The batch process took time, required space, and was visibly dirty - Improvements: By using a twin-screw pump with a screw conveyor and increasing the inlet size, peaches and strawberries could be directly fed in, eliminating the need for conveyor space and freeing up strategic space. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of chocolate transfer in the food sector. Issues of leakage and chocolate sticking occurred with a gland packing volumetric pump. Therefore, negative pressure transfer was implemented using a non-contact twin-screw pump, equipped with a full jacket. This resolved the issues of leakage and sticking, significantly contributing to quality improvement. [Case Overview] ■ Purpose: Prevention of sticking and leakage ■ Model: Twin-screw pump SQ type ■ Liquid Name: Chocolate ■ Issues: Leakage and sticking problems occurred with a gland packing volumetric pump ■ Improvements: Negative pressure transfer was implemented using a non-contact twin-screw pump, resolving the issues of leakage and sticking. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Here is an example of transporting soybeans and water in the food sector. A problem arose where transportation could not occur unless the ratio of water to soybeans was 7:3, leading to blockages. As a solution, we replaced the vortex pump with a screw pump, allowing for transportation even when the amount of water was reduced by half. 【Case Summary】 ■ Purpose: To reduce the amount of water ■ Type: Dual-shaft screw pump, SQ type ■ Liquid name: Soybeans + water ■ Issues: Transportation could not occur unless the ratio of water to soybeans was 7:3 ■ Improvements: Replaced with a screw pump, enabling transportation even with half the amount of water *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

We would like to introduce a new case of mixing powder and liquid using a twin-screw pump with mixing capabilities (blending pump). In this case, by mixing with a liquid, a powder that becomes highly viscous can be uniformly mixed in a short time with just one pump, simplifying the manufacturing process that traditionally required a kneader or stirring device. Immediately after the powder is introduced, it can be observed floating on the surface of the water, whereas after 10 minutes of circulation, a thick, homogeneous liquid with high viscosity is produced. This case is the result of a simulated test conducted in-house based on customer requests, and feedback from the customers who reached out to us included comments like, "I have never seen such a uniform mixture," and they were very satisfied with the results. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
