Pneumatic Conveying Systems for Reliable Bulk Material Transport
Granular, powdered, and lumpy bulk materials present different challenges for transportation. AZO develops pneumatic conveying systems tailored to the bulk material, the conveying task, and the spatial conditions. This allows for the automation of material transport and its reliable integration into the production process.
The Right Conveyor Principle for Every Transport Task
Whether multiple product feeding points are to feed into a single discharge point or a single feed is to be distributed to multiple discharge points: With vacuum, pressure, and combined vacuum-pressure conveying systems, the material flow can be precisely adapted to the specific plant configuration. This creates flexible transport routes and enables cost-effective feeding even over longer distances.
Gentle transport with minimal segregation
Selecting the appropriate conveying method and properly designed conveying equipment ensures gentle transport of bulk materials. Especially for sensitive products or those prone to segregation, an appropriate conveying method helps preserve the product’s properties during transport. At the same time, it protects the conveying pipes and system components.
Dust-Free and Safe Conveying
Enclosed pneumatic conveying systems reduce dust exposure during material transport. With vacuum conveying, the product is fed into the system without excess pressure, making the process particularly simple and dust-free. This allows for the hygienic and user-friendly integration of bulk material transport into various production processes.
Flexible Plant Design and Cost-Effective Operation
Flexible piping routes allow the pneumatic conveying system to be adapted to existing spatial conditions. The space- and height-saving design facilitates integration into existing or new production facilities. Depending on the application, various conveying concepts are available—ranging from suction conveying to pressure conveying to combined suction-pressure conveying. This allows the conveying technology to be specifically tailored to the transport task, bulk material, and plant layout.
