Progressive Cavity Pumps for Precision Fluid Dispensing

When your application demands accurate, consistent dispensing of adhesives, sealants, or other high-viscosity fluids, progressive cavity pumps offer one of the most reliable solutions available. At Hernon Manufacturing, we design and deliver advanced progressive cavity pump systems tailored for precision dispensing across high-performance industries.

Our pumps are ideal for manufacturers seeking clean, pulse-free fluid control—especially in electronics, medical device production, automotive assembly, and other demanding environments where every drop matters.

What Is a Progressive Cavity Pump?

A progressive cavity pump is a type of positive displacement pump that moves fluid through a series of sealed cavities formed between a rotor and stator. As the rotor turns, these cavities progress from the pump’s inlet to its outlet, creating a smooth, continuous flow.

This pumping method is particularly beneficial for metering and dispensing thick or abrasive materials—including high-viscosity adhesives, pastes, and resins—without shearing or pulsation.

Why Choose Hernon’s Progressive Cavity Pumps?

At Hernon, we combine deep adhesive expertise with in-house equipment engineering to deliver complete dispensing solutions. Our progressive cavity pumps are specifically designed to work seamlessly with Hernon adhesives and sealants, ensuring:

• Accurate volume control – Ideal for micro-dispensing or high-volume applications
• Continuous, pulse-free flow – Eliminates air bubbles and prevents inconsistent dispensing
• Handles high-viscosity materials – Perfect for thick pastes, epoxies, silicones, and anaerobics
• Wear-resistant construction – Built for longevity, even with abrasive or filled materials
• Scalable integration – From benchtop systems to fully automated assembly lines

Applications of Progressive Cavity Pumps

Hernon’s progressive cavity pumps are trusted by manufacturers across a wide range of industries for applications that require precise, repeatable dispensing:

• Electronics Manufacturing- Dispense thermal interface materials, potting compounds, and encapsulants with pinpoint accuracy.
• Medical Device Assembly- Apply consistent amounts of bonding agents, lubricants, or coatings in cleanroom conditions.
• Automotive Components- Meter gaskets, adhesives, or specialty fluids with zero waste and minimal maintenance.
• General Industrial Assembly- Pump high-viscosity or shear-sensitive materials without damaging the fluid’s structure.

Custom Solutions & Integrated Systems

Because Hernon engineers both the dispensing equipment and the fluids, we offer a true turnkey advantage. Every progressive cavity pump can be configured as part of a larger system, including:

• Precision nozzles and valves
• Servo-controlled drive units
• Automated robotics or gantry systems
• Touchscreen HMI interfaces
• Inline quality control and data tracking

Whether you need a standalone unit or a fully integrated production cell, Hernon’s systems are built to match your specific throughput and accuracy requirements.
