Vacuum Powder Conveyor Solution Air Driven Lifter System

Vacuum Powder Conveyor Product Introduction

Vacuum powder conveyor system is an advanced pneumatic conveying solution designed for efficient bulk material transfer. It uses vacuum negative pressure to suck materials from feed ports into a sealed pipeline system.

Inside the filter chamber, air and materials are separated, allowing powder and granules to fall into the silo by gravity. Fine particles are captured by cyclone and filter systems to ensure clean operation.

When the silo is full, the system automatically stops the vacuum pump, balances pressure, and starts discharge. Materials are released into storage containers, while the filter is cleaned using back-flushed air.

This system is widely used in food, chemical, pharmaceutical, and industrial powder handling applications.

Working principle

Step 1: Vacuum Generation
The vacuum pump generates negative pressure inside the sealed pipeline system.

Step 2: Material Suction
Bulk materials are sucked into the pipeline through the feed port using airflow.

Step 3: Pneumatic Transport
Materials are transported through enclosed pipelines under vacuum airflow.

Step 4: Separation Process
In the filter chamber, air and materials are separated using cyclone and filter elements.

Step 5: Material Collection
Separated materials fall into the silo automatically due to gravity.

Step 6: Pressure Balance
When the silo is full, the vacuum pump stops and system pressure stabilizes.

Step 7: Discharge Process
The discharge valve opens, and materials are released into storage containers.

Step 8: Filter Cleaning
Back-flushed air cleans the filter element automatically for next cycle.
