La pompe à lobes est une pompe volumétrique permettant de pomper des produits fragiles, sensibles au cisaillement, liquides ou visqueux, chargés de particules molles ou dures. L'action de pompage du principe de la pompe à lobes rotatifs est générée par la contre-rotation de deux rotors à l'intérieur d'une chambre. Ils sont situés sur des arbres, qui sont à leur tour montés à l'intérieur d'une boîte à engrenages externe et supportés par des paliers; les engrenages de distribution sont également situés sur les arbres. 4, record 1, French, - pompe%20%C3%A0%20lobes
