What Is a Milk Dairy Pump?
A milk dairy pump is a hygienic pump designed for transferring milk and dairy products like cream, yoghurt, and whey. These pumps must meet strict standards for food safety, efficiency, and product integrity. That means:
- Using 316L stainless steel for all wetted parts
- Incorporating smooth internal surfaces to prevent bacterial growth
- Allowing easy disassembly or CIP/SIP cleaning
- Offering gentle, low-shear flow to preserve milk quality
Why Hygienic Pumping Matters in Dairy
Milk is a live product—it’s temperature-sensitive, susceptible to contamination, and prone to foaming or separation when mishandled. Choosing a purpose-built milk dairy pump helps:
✅ Maintain consistent product quality
✅ Meet HACCP and FSANZ food safety standards
✅ Prevent spoilage or cross-contamination
✅ Minimise downtime with fast, cleanable components
✅ Support efficient CIP (Clean-In-Place) and SIP (Sterilise-In-Place) workflows
Common Applications in Dairy Processing
MultiTorque supplies milk dairy pumps for every stage of the production process:
- 🚛 Raw Milk Reception – From tanker unloading to buffer tanks
- 🧴 Milk Transfer – Across filtration, pasteurisation, or homogenisation lines
- 🍦 Dairy Ingredients – Cream, skim milk, or flavour mixing
- 🧃 Yoghurt and Liquid Dairy Products – Viscous or particulate-laden products
- 🧽 CIP/Cleaning Systems – Pumps used for cleaning fluids or sanitising loops
From farm to final packaging, we have the right pump for every flow point.
Pump Types We Recommend for Milk & Dairy
There’s no one-size-fits-all pump in the dairy world. The best choice depends on viscosity, temperature, flow rate, and cleaning needs. Here are some of the top milk dairy pump types used in Australia:
🌀 Centrifugal Pumps
- Ideal for low-viscosity fluids like milk or whey
- Provide high flow at low pressure
- Smooth internal surfaces for easy cleaning
- Used in bottling lines, pasteurisers, and skids
🔄 Rotary Lobe Pumps
- Designed for viscous or chunky products like cream or cultured milk
- Gentle, low-pulse transfer maintains texture
- Common in yoghurt, cheese, and flavoured milk lines
💨 Double Diaphragm (AODD) Pumps
- Self-priming and dry-run capable
- Great for transfer between tanks or cleaning loops
- Food-grade elastomers and portable design
- Often used in small dairy plants and mobile milk handling setups
🦾 Progressing Cavity Pumps
- Handle thick or particulate-laden fluids with ease
- Smooth, consistent flow for batching or dosing
- Suitable for cultured milk products, creams, and by-products
MultiTorque supplies, installs, and services all of the above—plus custom systems tailored to your processing line.
