NETZSCH Pumps USA, a global expert in complex fluid handling solutions, highlights its advanced NOTOS® multi screw pump technology integrated with its Barrel Emptying System, delivering a complete solution for food and consumer products manufacturers requiring hygienic, gentle, and efficient product transfer from drums and containers.
NETZSCH Pumps & Systems has engineered the Barrel Emptying System with their NOTOS® 2NSH pump to address the challenges of emptying high-viscosity, shear-sensitive, and value-added products commonly found in food and consumer goods production. The system is ideal for products such as syrups, flavorings, oils, chocolate, creams, pastes, gels, and other viscous formulations that must be handled carefully to maintain product integrity and minimize waste.
The NOTOS® 2NSH sanitary multi screw pump operates with virtually no pulsations and continuous flow, ensuring gentle product handling and precise dosing. Its design enables consistent pressure and smooth conveying, making it particularly suitable for shear-sensitive or aeration-prone media. The pump’s hygienic construction supports compliance with stringent sanitary requirements, while its robust mechanical seal design contributes to long service life and operational reliability.
The Barrel Emptying System is engineered to maximize product recovery and reduce residual waste left in drums. By combining a follower plate system with the NOTOS® pump, the unit ensures near-complete emptying of containers, improving yield and reducing raw material loss. This makes it especially valuable in applications where ingredients are costly or produced in smaller, controlled batches.
Designed with sanitation and maintenance in mind, the system offers clean-in-place (CIP) capability to streamline the cleaning process and easy disassembly to minimize downtime. The system supports consistent dosing and transfer into downstream processes such as mixing, filling, or packaging.
With its combination of hygienic design, gentle conveying, and high product recovery, the NOTOS® Barrel Emptying System provides food and consumer product manufacturers with a reliable, efficient solution for handling complex fluids directly from drums to batch and mix tanks and process lines.
