##### Allflo Pumps & Equipment was engaged to supply a **lobe pump solution** for a critical process application within a food processing plant, where hygiene, reliability and cleanability were essential.

 

### The Challenge

###### The application required a pumping system that met strict food processing standards while allowing easy access for cleaning and sanitation. Eliminating potential hygiene risks, such as dead spots and inaccessible surfaces, was a key design requirement.

 

### The Allflo Solution

Allflo supplied a **Waukesha lobe pump**, integrated into a custom-engineered pumpset fabricated in-house by Allflo’s precision engineering team.

Key design features included:

- A **sanitary stainless steel base with open ends**, allowing full access for wash-down and cleaning
- A **foot-mounted geared motor**, installed on milled stainless steel blocks
- Seamless welded construction to eliminate crevices and minimise the risk of bacterial growth
- A layout designed to reduce hygiene risk while maintaining reliable process performance

The complete pumpset was assembled and finished in-house to ensure compliance with food processing requirements.

 

### Outcome

The finished pumpset delivered a hygienic, fit-for-purpose solution suitable for a critical food processing environment, providing the client with confidence in both performance and cleanability.

This project demonstrates Allflo’s capability to deliver **custom-engineered pumping solutions for food and beverage applications**, where sanitation and precision design are critical.

 

###### If you’re assessing pumping solutions for a food processing application, Allflo can assist with selecting and configuring equipment to suit your process and compliance requirements.
