Introduction>>>
Vacuum Conveyor is the most advanced, perfect vacuum conveying equipment of powder material, granular material, powder- granular mixing machine, packing machine, injection molding machine, grinder etc, with the advantage of cost-reducing and no powder pollution.
The vacuum conveyor consists of a vacuum pump(no oil and water), stainless steel suction tube, flexible hose, PE filter or SUS 316 filter, compressed air cleaning device, pneumatic discharging device, vacuum hopper, and automatic level control device. This machine can reach the GMP standard and is the ideal feeding to the food industry and pharmaceutical industry.
Working Principle>>>
When the compressed air supply vacuum generators, vacuum generators produce negative pressure to form a vacuum airflow, the conveyed material arrives at the silo of the feeder through the feeder port. the filter in the hopper will separate completely the material and air. When the silo is filled with the materials, the PCB controller will automatically cut off the gas source, and vacuum generators stop working while the silo door automatically opens, then the materials fall into the hopper of the receiving device. Meanwhile, the compressed air will clean the filter automatically by pulse reverse valve. When the PCB controller reaches the settled time or the level inductor sends a signal of feeding materials. the vacuum feeder will repeat automatically this working process.

How to Select A Vacuum Conveyor>>>
Material Characteristics:
Type of Material: Consider the nature of the material you need to transport. Vacuum conveyors are suitable for powders, granules, capsules, tablets, small components, and other materials. Ensure that the conveyor is designed to handle the characteristics of your specific material.
Abrasive or Fragile: If the material is abrasive, the conveyor should have components designed to withstand wear. For fragile materials, choose a conveyor system that provides gentle handling to prevent damage.
System Capacity and Throughput:
Required Throughput: Determine the desired material transfer rate or throughput. The conveyor system should be capable of handling the volume of material needed for your production process.
Conveyor Size: Consider the physical size of the conveyor system, ensuring it fits within your production space while accommodating the desired capacity.
