The NEMO® BO/SO hopper pump with integrated cutting device enables conveying and cutting in one process step without the need for expensive additional equipment. This progressing cavity pump allows large solids, such as fruit or vegetable particles, to be easily and quickly chopped and pumped for further processing, particularly in the food industry. The NEMO® BO/SO progressing cavity pump, featuring a hopper and a coupling rod with feeding screw and force-feed chamber, is used across almost all industrial sectors. It ensures continuous, pressure-stable, gentle, and low-pulsation conveyance. The hopper housing with the cutting unit guarantees optimal feeding of chunky medium into the conveying elements. As the medium passes through the force-feed chamber with the cutting unit, larger pieces of fruits and vegetables are immediately cut. This cutting unit consists of a rotating knife with three blades and a variable number of stationary knives, which can be adjusted to the size and consistency of the particles.aintenance costs.
