Eliminating foreign matter contamination with existing rotary pumps! A case study from a food manufacturer.
The food manufacturer was transferring concentrated fruit juice (with a maximum viscosity of 20,000 mPa·s) from the raw material tank to the filling machine tank at a flow rate of 2 tons per hour. However, the existing rotary pump generated wear particles from the mechanical seal, which sometimes mixed into the liquid, leading to the need for frequent disassembly and inspection, presenting various challenges. For solutions to the challenges and requests, please download and view the PDF document. 【Customer's Challenges and Requests】 ■ Disassembly exposed the system to outside air, increasing the risk of bacterial growth with each inspection. ■ Specialized maintenance personnel were required, and the replacement parts were expensive, resulting in high maintenance costs. ■ Wear particles from the pump's mechanical seal sometimes mixed into the liquid, necessitating frequent disassembly and inspection. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

Company information
Takumina Co., Ltd. is a leading company in precision pumps and a provider of "fluid solutions" that welcomes all challenges. With a history of over 67 years since its founding, it is a long-established manufacturer that was the first in Japan to start producing powered metering pumps. Before the widespread adoption of water supply systems, we began manufacturing and selling suction-type chlorine sterilizers, and the difficult challenges faced by our customers have shaped Takumina's "pump technology" over the years. Currently, our pumps are continuously chosen for various manufacturing processes that require high precision, including electronic materials, pharmaceuticals, and more. Our smooth flow pumps, which provide high-precision liquid delivery with continuous, pulsation-free flow despite being diaphragm-type, are strong against slurries, contamination-free, and do not change liquid quality. We offer fluid solutions used in various manufacturing, transfer, supply, and injection processes, starting with the water treatment field. At Takumina, we strive daily to understand the properties of liquids and the conditions of processes to propose the optimal transfer systems. We provide suggestions from research and development to manufacturing processes. We also accept inquiries for rental equipment and actual liquid testing. If you have any difficulties in selecting pumps or fluid transfer, please feel free to contact us.
