Chocolate pumps
Gear pumps or Rotary lobe pumps
Steimel chocolate pumps are used in machinery and equipment for the processing and production of chocolate. Installation in stationary and mobile tank systems or storage and melting containers for chocolate is possible. By using the rotary lobe pump, gentle material handling of prodcuts containing fruit or grain can be achieved. Steimel pumps are installed in production lines as process pumps for the production of cosmetic creams, oils and lotions.
