WHAT IS A VACUUM CONVEYOR?
A vacuum conveyor is a compressed air system utilized to transfer dry materials from a feed source the desired discharge point in a factory by the use of suction. The material, usually consisting of powders, pigments, granules, tablets, capsules, small parts, is conveyed in a tubing system from point A to B.
The working principle of a vacuum conveyor
The pressure differential is generated by creating a vacuum, where material will be “carried” by the air flow caused by the vacuum. This mechanism works best with any dry free flowing materials. Should a material be more challenging in its handling characteristics, we also offer a solution to transfer materials with bridging. Vacuum conveyors are ideal for both small and larger applications, where bulk material is fed to the conveyor from big bags, sacks, hoppers, railcars, silos, and other typically dusty containers. They are inherently self-cleaning, have a smaller footprint than other traditional conveyor options, are easy to install, and are energy efficient. They come with the option to be driven by compress air through our conventional vacuum pump or if compressed air is at a premium we also have the option to supply an electro-mechanical vane pump.
