Product introduction of Stainless Steel Pneumatic Conveyor
The stainless steel pneumatic conveyor system is an advanced vacuum conveying solution designed for efficient transportation of powders, granules, and bulk materials. It operates by generating negative pressure inside sealed pipelines using a vacuum pump, allowing materials to be sucked from multiple feeding points and transported to designated storage or processing locations.
This system combines vacuum suction conveying and pressure discharge conveying, making it suitable for complex industrial layouts. It is widely used in agriculture processing, food production, chemical powder handling, and pharmaceutical manufacturing, where clean, safe, and automated material transfer is required.


Working principle
Step 1: Vacuum Generation
The vacuum pump creates negative pressure inside the sealed pipeline system.
Step 2: Material Suction
Materials are sucked into the pipeline from multiple suction points together with airflow.
Step 3: Pipeline Conveying
The mixture of air and material is transported through stainless steel pipelines.
Step 4: Separation Process
At the discharge end, materials are separated from airflow using gravity or centrifugal force.
Step 5: Material Discharge
Separated materials are discharged into storage silos or production equipment.
Step 6: Air Filtration & Recycling
Air is filtered and vacuum system maintains continuous operation.
