Leakproof Design
Since chocolate is an expensive product, a leaking pump literally means siphoning off money. We can explain it like this...
"If a pump product is leaking, it's essentially like you're picking up snow from the ground and throwing it out."
Knife-Edge Hygienic Mechanical Seal ensures leak-free pumping of the product.
- It keeps the temperature under control.
- It prevents crystallization and stratification in the mill region.
- Easy to clean.
Older pumps would leave controlled leaks in the shaft-neck area. Packo pumps with Lobe Knife Edge seals are designed to operate leak-free. If there is a leak, it means it's time for maintenance.
More Pressure, More Problems
Many confectionery manufacturers operate factories that have been in place for decades. In many cases, the production equipment may be almost antique, and the compatible infrastructure is in need of updating.
"Often, our customers want us to not only sell pumps but also provide consulting services regarding their applications. We typically advise them on how to install the pump to ensure the best reliability and performance."
The pumps recommended by Arpon improve production results in most setups, but the best performance comes from removing unwanted forces—such as pressure—from the pump. Ultimately, more pressure creates more friction. Friction generates heat. And heat is the enemy of chocolate production.
The world absolutely loves chocolate. Chocolate manufacturers keep their factories running 24/7 to meet demand, even during times of economic downturn. This means that it is extremely important for confectionery manufacturers not to experience interruptions. That's why the reliability of their pumps is so crucial for the world's largest producers.
