FCS
No residue, more efficiency.
FPP is the piston pump developed by FIMIC to ensure stable and controlled transfer of molten plastic material, even in the presence of high variability and contamination.
Based on a dual-cylinder system with synchronized pistons, FPP introduces an operating principle that does not rely on material stability, but on the mechanical generation of flow. This allows pressure and throughput to remain constant even under complex operating conditions.
A technology designed to improve process continuity, reduce fluctuations, and support line operation even in the most unstable conditions.
FPP is the ideal solution for applications where process control becomes critical, enabling greater stability without compromising operational efficiency.
Control in two pistons.
Our FPP is the control point of thermoplastic flow when conditions become unstable.
Thanks to the synchronized dual-piston system, it ensures constant pressure and continuous flow even in the presence of variable or contaminated materials. The behavior of the line no longer depends on upstream fluctuations, but is defined by the pump itself.
No input stability is required, there’s no need to continuously adjust the process, and no compromise with the material is necessary. The result? Greater operational continuity, more control over the line, and less variability.
Designed to handle what cannot be predicted. Solid in operation, precise in results.

How does it work?
The FPP piston pump is designed to maintain control where the process tends to lose it.
When material variability and operating conditions become unstable, traditional solutions begin to operate outside their ideal range. In these contexts, pre-filtration systems are often used to protect pumps from critical contamination — but this introduces complexity, additional costs, and operational limitations.
It is precisely to overcome this limitation that FPP was developed.
Unlike gear pumps, FPP does not depend on incoming material conditions and does not require a pre-filter to operate safely. The flow is not regulated, but mechanically generated through a synchronized dual-piston system. This allows pressure and throughput to remain constant even in the presence of contamination or unpredictable behaviour, avoiding the risk of damage typical of traditional technologies when processing post-consumer materials.
It is a solution designed to operate under complex conditions, without requiring continuous process adjustments or additional configurations to compensate for fluctuations. Every element is developed according to FIMIC engineering principles: mechanical robustness, cycle control, and long-term reliability.
Integrated into the line, FPP allows process stability and control to be maintained even in the presence of variable and contaminated materials and non-constant operating conditions, supporting the operation of the extruder and downstream stages. In high-pressure applications or with heterogeneous inputs, it ensures operational continuity and control where other technologies reach their limits.
Designed to handle variability. Built to keep the process under control.

FPP is the new piston pump by FIMIC, developed to address one of the most concrete challenges in plastics recycling: maintaining process control even when conditions are not stable.
It stems from a clear need: to address the increasing variability of materials and the operational limits that arise when pressure and flow can no longer be managed with traditional approaches. It is not an evolution of what already exists, but the introduction of a different operating principle, based on the mechanical generation of flow.
With FPP, FIMIC expands its approach to recycling, complementing its established technologies with a solution designed to operate where process complexity increases.
A technology that maintains control even when conditions change, carrying forward the same vision that has always guided FIMIC: to develop concrete solutions that make recycling more efficient, reliable, and sustainable.
