Company Story
FUKKO pumps born from customer voice
“We would like to pull out the expensive raw materials which tend to remain at the bottom of the drum.”
The history of FUKKO pumps began with hearing such requests.
Although it is a completely unknown field,
With the experience of metal processing cultivated so far and tenacious research,
our first in-house manufactured radial vane pump was born in 1980.
Ever since,
V-type vane pump, which has the automatic pressure adjustment mechanism, was developed in response to requests for longer component life.
From the voice that “I’m looking for a positive displacement pump with a sanitary structure”
The twin screw pump, which is currently the main product, has been developed.
One-of-a-kind one products making further progress
After that, based on the ” problems” of our customers,
Twin Screw Pump with Slide Bar for easier disassembly and cleaning,
Twin Screw Pump with Screw Conveyor for transferring ultra-high viscosity liquid (Model SQW),
Twin Screw Pump with De-aerating Function (model VQ ) that realizes de-aeration and liquid transfer at the same time,
Twin Screw Pump with Agitation Function (model BQ) for mixing multiple liquids or liquids and powders while transferring them,etc.
We have created one-of-a-kind products one after another with unique ideas.
Our mission is “to develop original products that are truly useful.
These products are the result of tackling difficult problems that were previously thought to be “impossible.
Our origin is to stay close to our customers’ needs and respond to their wishes through creative, one-of-a-kind products.
Even if you think it is an impossible task,
Please feel free to contact us with your problems and concerns.
