Chocolate Pump Challenges

Leakage • Expensive to lose product • Housekeeping

Caramelizing of the Chocolate • Seizes the pump • Gives burned/charred taste to product • Most prevalent on low-fat formulations

Abrasive • Can be difficult to seal


Competitor Displacement

Viking • No vent to suction as standard • Wear due to excessive shaft deflection • Mechanical seals have short life

Other Observed Weaknesses • Poor reliability on some applications due to

excessive speed • No working relationship with some customers

to improve reliability or seal life


Competitors Displacement

Alfa-Laval • Stainless head ($$$), two stuffing boxes,

leakage problems

Waukesha • Two Stuffing boxes, leakage problems

Rotan • 180° ports require plumbing

Roper • Found largely in oil use


The GlobalGear® Answer

Vent to Suction is Standard • Keeps the product from stalling in the stuffing box Chocolate Fitted Pump Reduces Caramelization • Root Drilled idler gear increases product flow through the idler

bushing • Extra clearance bushings increase product flow through the

bushings TuffSeall™ • Working extremely well in chocolate applications


The GlobalGear® Option

TuffSeall™ • Keeps the product in the pump not on the floor Style 42 Triple Lip TuffSeall™ • Proven successful experience with a style 42 triple lip

TuffSeal™ FDA materials with vegetable shortening between the inner and outer lips


The HD Option

Low Shear • Ability to handle shear sensitive chocolates Solids Handling Capability • Fruits and nuts Less Opportunity for Sugar Caramelizing • Clean sweep of fluid chamber with each revolution • No bushings/friction sources in the pump that can

cause caramelizing • Reduces product residence time within pump


Flavorings and Colorants

Injecting and Dosing • Repeatable Accuracy to better than 1% • PIC Fluids (Acids/Caustics/etc,) • Flavors (Spearmint/Apple/etc,) • No Pulsing • Colors
