The drive shaft of the Wangen HILINE pump is particularly well suited to food products for several reasons.
First of all, its unique design.
The shaft is semi-rigid, which allows the rotary motion to be transferred to the stator, while adapting to the position of the rotor, without any articulation.
In addition, the shaft has a constant diameter, unlike all other progressive cavity pumps.
This feature is ideal for food applications, as the fluid is no longer subject to turbulence resulting from the shape of the drive shaft.
In addition, the constant diameter shaft minimises the so-called “dead zones” where bacterial growth is most frequent.
Peristaltic pumps transfer the most delicate fluids with virtually no turbulence and no dead zones.
