Vacuum Conveyor Product Introduction
Vacuum conveyor, also known as vacuum feeder or pneumatic vacuum loader, is a high-efficiency closed conveying system that uses compressed air to generate vacuum suction for material transfer.
The system automatically feeds materials into production equipment such as packaging machines, mixers and processing machines. It is equipped with a filter back-blowing cleaning device, which ensures continuous operation by preventing powder blockage on filter surfaces.
With automatic level control, the system starts and stops intelligently based on material demand, enabling fully automated feeding and reducing manual labor in industrial production lines.


Working principle
Step 1: Compressed air enters vacuum generator to create negative pressure
Step 2: Vacuum suction pulls material into conveying pipeline
Step 3: Powder or granules are transported through closed pipeline system
Step 4: Material enters vacuum hopper and air is separated through filter
Step 5: Filter cleaning system uses compressed air pulse back-blowing
Step 6: Material is discharged into receiving equipment automatically
Step 7: Level sensor controls automatic start and stop operation cycle
