PCM has inherited the drive and ingenuity of its founder, René Moineau, who in 1930 published a pioneering dissertation that paved the way for the Progressing Cavity Pump (PCP).
In a progressing cavity pump a rotor turns inside a stator, producing a steady flow based on drive speed. This makes it possible to match a PCP with virtually any customer application.
Progressing cavity pumps are ideal for pumping viscous, particulate, abrasive or fragile products. They are equally suitable for applications that require artificial lift, such as oilfield applications.
Changing the geometry -- or shape -- of the rotor governs the pump’s output. Therefore, a PCP can be designed to deliver precise and continuous flow of even the most difficult materials.
