Urgent Replacement of Broken Pump Using Jabsco Lobe

Pumps are essential equipment in nearly every food processing plant, including bakeries. They transfer challenging fluids like dough and batter, which are sensitive and viscous. These main ingredients need to be handled with optimal care to ensure a quality product. Additionally, uninterrupted processing is crucial to making good bread. For such reasons, bakeries opt for pumps with few wear parts and long MBTF.

Jabsco manufactures hygienic pumps for the bakery industry. They have powerful lobe pumps designed to transfer batter with minimal to zero shears and longer MBTF. Being the leading supplier of Jabsco pumps in Australia, we provided a bakery client with a reliable solution for pumping batter.

A bakery had an urgent breakdown on its existing batter pump, which is used to transfer dough made of abrasive flour. The pump continuously burnt out seals, leading to seal replacement as often as every few days of running the pump. These frequent breakdowns caused the client costly repairs and wasted time, greatly affecting their bottom line.

All-Pumps had Jasco lobe pumps in stock, enabling us to deliver a replacement pump to the client’s site in just a few days.

Rely on Jabsco rotary lobe pumps for pulsation-free handling of all process fluid types, regardless of viscosity.
