Streamlined solutions for meat and fish processing
PCM pumping solutions are specially designed to meet the requirements of the meat and fish industry, where precision, hygiene and preservation of raw materials are paramount.
Whether for the transfer of mechanically separated meat (MSM), fish meat or egg products, PCM pumps ensure a continuous flow and respectful handling of delicate products. Certified by the highest food standards, they guarantee optimal safety and efficient cleaning, while maintaining high productivity with a low life cycle cost (LCC).
Challenges in meat and fish processing
Typical applications in the meat and fish industry
Meat Processing
Meat processing includes critical steps such as slaughter, cutting and recovery of viscera and by-products (blood, fat). PCM's progressive cavity pumps and peristaltic pumps ensure smooth and safe transfer of these materials, while maintaining rigorous hygiene standards.
Mechanically separated meat (MSM)
The transfer of VSM, a highly viscous product, requires robust pumps. The PCM EasyFeed and PCM HyFeed hopper feeder pumps are ideal for handling these challenging products, ensuring a constant flow even under high pressure conditions.
Transfer of liquid eggs
Liquid egg transfer is a delicate application requiring pumps that respect the integrity of the product. PCM solutions, such as the PCM HyCare™ pump, help maintain viscosity and avoid the risk of bacterial contamination thanks to a hygienic design, meet European and US regulations (EC 1935/2004 and FDA), EHEDG or 3A.

Treatment of animal by-products
Co-products such as wet animal meal require pumps capable of handling highly viscous and often abrasive products. PCM progressive cavity pumps equipped with a hopper offer a robust and durable solution for this type of application.
