Pneumatic transport refers to a method of transportation of bulk material with air as a carrying medium, i.e. transportation of material through a pipeline driven by direct or indirect dynamic effects of the flowing air mass on the transported particles.
- Chamber Feeders
- Conveyor Troughs
- Mixers
- Accessories
- Auxiliary Elements
Types of stationary pneumatic transport
- Low and Medium pressure transport – Ejectors or Blenders
- High pressure transport – Chamber Feeding devices
- Pneumatic chute transport
As an example of the low pressure transport we can consider the ejector mixer. The transport distances are limited by transport air pressure to be used.
The medium pressure transport uses blowers with the air pressure as sources of air and special rotary feeders as mixers.
Chamber feeding devices are primarily used in equipment designed for transporting larger amounts of loose materials over long distances. Furthermore, the equipment’s throughput can exceed a hundred tons per hour, with transport distances reaching up to hundreds of meters.
Pneumatic chute transport, on the other hand, is ideal for achieving high transport throughput rates over shorter distances, provided there is sufficient room for the necessary slope. Additionally, a transport chute features a modular structure, which allows for various transport line setup designs.
The above mentioned systems of transport can be extended with elements of mechanical transport and thus it can meet the most demanding requirements of the customers.
