A Progressive Cavity Pump (PCP), also known as a screw pump or moineau pump, is a type of positive displacement pump designed to handle fluids by transferring them through a series of small, fixed cavities. It is particularly effective for handling viscous, abrasive, or shear-sensitive fluids, making it a versatile choice across various industries.
