Pneumatic Transport of Bulk Materials

Powder, granules and many other dry bulk materials can be transported through closed pipelines using differential pressure and gas/air flow. The concept of pneumatic conveying systems is to use pressure differential to cost-effectively move bulk materials from one process area to another in the food industry, pharmaceutical industry, pet food plants, chemical industry and even in the admixture manufacturing segment.

Benefits of Pneumatic Transport:

  • Increasing the safety of the work environment
  • Improve product quality and prevent product loss due to spillage or damage
  • Reducing waste relief and product contamination
  • Accelerate the work of transferring bulk materials from pt. A to B
  • Increase productivity and reduce costs through automation
  • No downtime required for maintenance
  • Eliminating the possibility of dust explosions and respiratory illnesses in workers
  • Short time required to implement employees
  • One device for many types of materials
  • Energy efficiency

The system consists of: Pump unit, Tank, Bottom valve, Air tank, Filters, Conveying pipeline, Product feeding station.

Application of pneumatic transport:

The system of pneumatic transport (vacuum) of bulk materials proves itself wherever, due to the characteristics of the transported material, special attention must be paid, for example, due to the need to maintain its highest purity (such as pharmaceuticals) or the occurrence of the need to reduce dust.

A vacuum transport system replaces manual handling or mechanical transport. Screw conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors, pillar elevators, tablet elevators or other bulk material feeders cannot compete with the versatility and small size of vacuum conveyors. Pneumatic trasnports are ideal for fragile products, such as chorni fragile tablets from chipping.

They can be used for loading and unloading bags, tablet press feeder, filling mishmashers and mixers, packaging machines, sieves. They auotmatize work in factories from the industrial, pharmaceutical, chemical or 3D printing sectors.

Advantages of this solution:

  •  Avoid product damage to delicate materials (e.g., tablets are protected from splinters).
  • Reducing waste relief and product contamination
  • Dust-free working environment (sterile cleanliness) with minimal handling and quick and easy maintenance
  • Space-saving – small size and the ability to mount anywhere (for example, under the hall ceiling).
  • Minimized risk of failure – no mechanical components
  • The versatility and small size of vacuum conveyors
  • can be integrated into an existing system or designed for a completely new line
  • handling up to 15 tons per hour
  • Quick maintenance and cleaning, as well as the ability to quickly rpzone to another raw material transported
  • are certified by the FDA, EC No. 1935/2004, EC No. 10/2011, ATEX Dust and ATEX Gas
  • filters prevent dust particles from entering the production environment
  • Ejector-driven vacuum pump or mechanical pump – low noise and energy efficient
  • The vacuum conveyor is constructed of heavy-duty materials
