Product Introduction of Pneumatic Vacuum Conveyor
Pneumatic vacuum conveyor is a high-performance automatic conveying system that works like a powerful industrial vacuum cleaner. It uses compressed air (0.5–0.6 MPa) to generate vacuum suction, pulling materials through a pipeline into a sealed hopper.
Inside the system, materials are separated from air by a high-efficiency filter. The clean air is discharged while the material is collected and automatically released into downstream equipment. With an automatic cycle of suction, discharge and filter cleaning, the system enables continuous, stable and dust-free material feeding.
It is widely used in food, pharmaceutical, chemical and industrial manufacturing for efficient powder and granule handling.


Working principle
Step 1: Compressed air (0.5–0.6 MPa) enters vacuum generator
Step 2: Strong vacuum suction is created inside system
Step 3: Material is sucked into pipeline through hose
Step 4: Material and air mixture enters sealed hopper
Step 5: Filter separates air from material
Step 6: Clean air is discharged outside system
Step 7: Material is released automatically through bottom valve
Step 8: Reverse air blows clean filter
Step 9: System restarts and repeats continuous cycle
