Pneumatic Conveyor

Pneumatic thrust conveying is a discontinuous transport process from a closed vessel. It operates according to the cycle "fill-transport". Compressed air thrusts the bulk material out of the pressure vessel through a transport pipe. In this conveying process, the cross section of the pipe immediately following the pressure vessel is completely filled. Depending on the setting and the properties of the product, plugs form, and the distance between these plugs increases as the conveying distance increases. There is, however, no dispersed conveyance. The pneumatic conveyor is especially suitable for conveying dry, granular and free-flowing substances. The pneumatic conveyor is never fully emptied, so that each conveying process takes place against the full line. This reduces pipe wear and material abrasion considerably. The conveyor is compact in design, requires little maintenance and makes little noise. Features: compact and fully automatic; negligible power consumption; only compressed air used for conveying; little wear, tear and maintenance; no moving parts in the material to be transported; and economical operation. Applications: foundry and steel industries; chemical and pharmaceutical industries; glass and ceramic industries; plastic industries; food and feed industries; and quarry and earth shifting industries. Other products: high pressure moulding machine; shot blasting machine; dust collectors; hydraulic power packs.
