A progressive screw pump, also known as a progressive cavity pump, is a type of positive displacement pump specifically designed to handle challenging fluids. From abrasive slurries to highly viscous substances, these pumps deliver steady, non-pulsating flow—making them essential for industries that require precision, reliability, and minimal shear.

At MultiTorque, we service, supply, and repair progressive screw pumps for a wide range of Australian industries, offering tailored solutions that stand the test of time. If you’re looking to boost performance, reduce downtime, or get a new pump installed, we’ve got you covered.

What Is a Progressive Screw Pump?

A progressive screw pump uses a single-helix rotor that turns inside a double-helix stator to move fluid in a progressive, chamber-by-chamber motion. As the rotor turns, the cavities shift from suction to discharge, transferring fluid without interruption. This design makes the pump ideal for transporting:

• Viscous materials

• Shear-sensitive fluids

• Solids-laden slurries

• Corrosive or abrasive liquids

Unlike centrifugal pumps, which rely on speed and momentum, a progressive screw pump provides consistent flow regardless of pressure or viscosity—perfect for tough, high-demand environments.

Key Benefits of a Progressive Screw Pump

1. Smooth and Pulsation-Free Flow
The continuous motion ensures stable flow rates, making it ideal for dosing, metering, and pressure-sensitive applications.

2. Self-Priming Capability
Progressive screw pumps can self-prime even in dry conditions, which is a major advantage for remote or intermittent flow operations.

3. Excellent for High-Viscosity and Solids-Laden Fluids
Whether you’re pumping sludge, slurry, molasses, or polymer emulsions, a progressive screw pump keeps things moving without clogging or excessive wear.

4. Low Shear Pumping
The gentle action preserves the integrity of shear-sensitive fluids like food products, biochemicals, and emulsions.

5. Reversible Flow
Changing the direction of the rotor allows for bi-directional flow, providing additional flexibility for system design or emergency operations.
