A pump may look suitable on paper, then deliver differently as molasses cools or run at a speed that does not suit cream. Choosing rotary lobe pumps in Turkey requires an understanding of both the material and transfer line, particularly for viscous or sensitive foods.

If you are seeking the best company in Turkey for a pumping solution matched to your production, Al Hariri Group brings together experience in processing equipment, tanks and filling, alongside maintenance services. We start with product data and operating conditions, then discuss a configuration for your factory.

What is a rotary lobe pump?

A rotary lobe pump is a positive-displacement pump. Two synchronised lobed rotors move liquid through spaces between the lobes and casing wall, from suction to discharge. Timing gears prevent contact between the rotors during correct operation.

This category is worth considering where viscosity or product texture matters. Visit the rotary lobe pump product page to see the units and configuration options.

Where can it suit food processing?

Applications to assess include cream, sugar syrup, molasses, jam and other dairy products. Products with pieces require checks on particle size, internal clearance and speed. Being a lobe pump does not make every model suitable for every product.

For jam, establish whether the product is smooth or contains fruit pieces. For cream, preserving texture becomes part of the selection. These details guide pump size, rotational speed and sealing arrangements.

The information that determines pump selection

Viscosity at operating temperature

The product name alone is not enough. Send viscosity where available and the temperature at which product reaches the pump. Mention temperature changes within a shift or between batches.

Flow rate and pipe layout

State the required hourly transfer volume, pipe lengths, diameters and height difference. Include valves, filters, heat exchangers or filling equipment along the route. They affect pressure requirements, and protection against excessive pressure should be reviewed in the system design.

Materials, seals and cleaning

Review contact materials and seal compatibility with the product, temperature and cleaning chemicals. Clean-in-place capability must be checked for the model and cleaning procedure; a stainless exterior alone does not establish suitability.

Power supply and control

Provide available voltage and frequency, the intended control method and whether the pump runs continuously or follows another machine’s demand. This helps match the drive to the factory system.

Fixed base or mobile pump unit?

A fixed base suits a pump permanently assigned to one line. Wheels and a push handle can be practical when the unit serves different work points. Consider connections, movement space and procedures for disconnection, cleaning and securing.

Assess the whole route from tank to processing equipment, including drainage and maintenance access. Our guide to filling-machine types helps explain the next stage when transfer forms part of filling.

Why choose Al Hariri Group?

Based in Turkey, Al Hariri Group has worked in food processing and filling equipment since 1982. This experience allows the pump to be assessed with the equipment around it, whether you are upgrading a transfer route or building a new production line.

  • Application-led selection: review product, viscosity, temperature and required flow.
  • Coordination with the line: consider tanks, processing and filling equipment.
  • A suitable arrangement: discuss fixed or mobile installation and connections.
  • Clear technical services: agree installation, maintenance and spare-parts requirements in the quotation.

We aim to be your best partner in Turkey when a considered pumping solution and accessible service matter. That starts with a technical proposal defining the model, contact materials, operating limits and agreed equipment.

Frequently asked questions

Is a lobe pump suitable for every viscous liquid?

Selection requires checks on viscosity, temperature, chemical compatibility, flow and pressure. Another pump type may suit some applications better.

Can it transfer a product containing pieces?

This can be assessed after establishing particle size, proportion and sensitivity, then checking clearances, speed and the proposed model.

How can I obtain a pump price?

Send product, flow, pipework, electrical supply and base requirements. The price depends on model, materials, seals, drive, accessories and included services.
