Rotomac progressive cavity screw pump for sludge, slurry and viscous fluids
Where they excel

Six sectors where PC pumps win.

Wastewater & sewage

Municipal STPs, industrial effluent handling, sludge transfer, sludge dewatering, dosing. Low pulsation protects downstream centrifuges and belt presses.

Food, dairy & beverage

Food-grade WF/FACB series for syrups, fruit pulp, edible oil, dairy, pastes and yeasts. Sanitary cardan joints and hygiene-compliant construction.

Chemicals & pharma

PC pumps for corrosive, shear-sensitive or high-viscosity fluids — polymers, resins, paints, pharmaceutical precision dosing.

Mining, pulp & paper

Abrasive slurries, tailings, pulp stock — consistent low-pulsation flow where centrifugals fail fast from wear.

Biogas & digester feed

High-solids digester content, landfill leachate and renewable-gas plant feeds. Rotomac's PC pumps are a default pick on biogas sites.

Sugar, steel, textiles

Massecuite, molasses, mill-liquor and process fluids in sugar, steel and textile plants. PC pumps for precision dosing of additives.

Rotomac progressive cavity pumps — close-coupled and belt-driven configurations
Series we supply

Five lines covering the typical PC pump duty space.

Rotomac manufactures progressive cavity pumps in Kanpur and exports to 30+ countries. For most Indian applications the standard and hopper-throat lines cover the bread-and-butter. For dosing, reach for the precision-dosing line. For food and dairy, the encapsulated cardan-joint food-hygiene line is the default. Final model is always confirmed against the OEM catalogue.

We’ll specify stator elastomer (nitrile, EPDM, FKM, hygienic-grade) based on fluid chemistry — not just the pump casing.

Why Trading Engineers

Four things every Rotomac customer gets.

Authorised supply

Genuine Rotomac pumps and wear parts direct from the Kanpur factory. No grey-market units.

Workshop rebuilds

Stator/rotor replacement, seal change, coupling refurbishment in our workshop. Bench-tested before dispatch.

Stator selection

Nitrile, EPDM, FKM or hygienic elastomers matched to your fluid chemistry — the stator is where most PC pumps fail.

Duty-led sizing

Sizing starts from fluid viscosity, solids %, shear sensitivity, flow and discharge pressure — not from a standard selection chart.

Frequently asked questions

Why a progressive cavity (PC) pump instead of a centrifugal?

PC pumps are positive displacement — flow is directly proportional to RPM, with very low pulsation, excellent self-priming and gentle product handling. They shine on viscous fluids (massecuite, molasses, sludge), shear-sensitive products (yoghurt, yeast), abrasive slurries (tailings), and precision dosing (polymer/chemical injection) — duties where centrifugals struggle or wear out fast.

Which Rotomac PC pump fits my application?

For standard wastewater/sludge — the standard PC pump line. For high-solids hopper feeds — the hopper-throat line. For precision dosing or additive injection — the dosing line. For food or hygiene duty — the sanitary/encapsulated-cardan line. We match based on fluid, solids %, viscosity, flow and pressure, and confirm the model against the latest Rotomac catalogue before quoting.

Are Rotomac pumps API 676 compliant?

Yes — Rotomac offers API 676 compliant PC pump construction for oil/gas and API-spec process duty. Ask us when you quote if this is mandatory for your project.

What fluids are not suitable?

Very large hard solids (rocks), high-temperature service beyond stator rating, completely dry / non-lubricating media, and high-pressure service above rating can be issues. We advise case-by-case — sometimes a gear pump or screw-gear combination is the better fit.

Do you do rebuilds or rewinding in-house?

No — we don't run an in-house workshop for stator/rotor rebuilds or motor rewinding. We supply genuine Rotomac wear parts (stators, rotors, seals, coupling rods) and route major rebuild work to OEM-authorised workshops to keep the factory warranty intact.

Do you stock Rotomac spares in Delhi NCR?

Common stators, rotors and wear parts for popular models are stocked. Less-common parts are sourced direct from Rotomac's Kanpur factory on priority.

Have a difficult fluid to pump?

Send us the fluid name, viscosity, solids %, flow, pressure and temperature. We'll size the right Rotomac and quote.
