Understand how a Pneumatic Conveying System works

Posted by Rutvij Bhatt on July 15th, 2022

Pneumatic passing alludes on to a sort of framework that utilization pressure differential and gas stream (typically air) to move dry mass materials (powders and granules) starting with one cycle region then onto the next. Moving mass merchandise by means of air through encased conveying pipelines is the essential standard of pneumatic conveying. Here, the air development is typically created by a blower, fan or root blower.

Generally, a high-quality pneumatic conveying system used in the large-scale or small scale industry involves a material display point, channeling, a gas stream development gadget, vacuum generator, filter, inner gas filter and a getting point. It’s a whole process set up with vacuum generator and ending with a getting point where the material discharge.

To pass mass material on through the conveying line, the streaming conveying air communicates an impetus force. This requires a strain distinction between the beginning and finish of the pipeline and to conquer this distinction, blowers or it are normally used to convey blowers. It likewise controls the positive/negative tension as well as the wind current inside the conveying line, which authorize the framework to move the materials effectively with very little misfortune or harm.

How does a pneumatic conveying system process?

The mass materials as granules or powders are moved through an encased conveying pipeline by the power produced by the progression of air or different gas. The strain or vacuum power and wind stream used to convey the materials is created via air movers like positive removal blowers or vacuums.

In a strain type conveying framework, the wind current and tension is produced towards the inception of the framework. In a vacuum type conveying framework, the wind current and vacuum is produced towards the finish of the framework. Hence, by tweaking the strain differential and wind current, the framework can really pass materials starting with one point on then onto the next.

Pros of having pneumatic system

•          No pivoting parts are in exposure with the materials
•          This machine gives details about the material
•          It is contamination free and also reliable with large material
•          Prevent extra dust from the operation and preserving raw material
•          Automatic process with better productivity and results
•          Speedy production with more batches
•          Adjustable to any space
•          Cost effective with less maintenance cost
•          Can also operate either vertical or horizontal
•          Excellent digital features to control

Cons of using a pneumatic system

•          Regular air pressure change is necessary for conveying power
•          It is not as much as efficient than mechanical conveyor
•          Mostly used to extract smaller materials
•          Very larger materials can be a challenge
•          Dust collection machine is required and should be maintained frequently
•          Sticky or wet materials are not at all convenient for this machine
•          The machine makes a lot of noise, can be reduced with enclosures

You get an option of flexible spiral conveyor and vertical screw conveyor in case pneumatic system is not suitable for your industry or have bulky materials.

Neoplast offers a wide range of plastic recycling machinery such as pvc mixer machine, high speed heater cooler mixer, compounding plant, twin screw extruder, two roll mill, Neoplast is providing best quality of conveying system like pneumatic conveying system and silo storage system.
