OVERVIEW
Pneumatic Vacuum Conveying Technology
The vacuum conveyor uses a vacuum pump (venturi or mechanical) to create negative pressure that draws powder and granules through an enclosed pipeline from a pickup point to a receiving hopper. The material is separated from the air stream by a filter, and discharged through a valve. This fully enclosed system provides 100% dust-free transfer — critical for pharmaceutical, food, chemical (hazardous), and battery (sensitive) applications. Vacuum conveyors are compact, easy to route around obstacles, and can serve multiple pickup/discharge points. Compared to mechanical screw conveyors, pneumatic systems offer greater installation flexibility and superior containment.

TRANSPORT MODES
Dilute Phase vs. Dense Phase
Dilute Phase (Standard)
High velocity (15-25 m/s), low pressure. Material suspended in air stream. Best for: free-flowing powders, granules, non-friable materials. Most common and economical.
Dense Phase (Special)
Low velocity (3-8 m/s), higher pressure. Material moves in slugs/plugs. Best for: fragile, abrasive, or blended materials. Less pipe wear, gentler handling. Higher initial cost.

How the Vacuum Conveyor Works
A vacuum pump creates negative pressure that pulls powder through sealed pipelines into a collection hopper. A pulse-jet filter prevents dust escape, and the discharge valve releases material into the destination.
Vacuum created > Powder suctioned through pipe > Filter separates air > Hopper collects > Valve discharges material

Introduction
vacuum conveyor represents an advanced pneumatic conveying solution for modern powder and granule handling. Utilizing negative pressure technology, it transports dry bulk materials cleanly and efficiently through sealed pipelines directly to processing equipment—such as mixers, hoppers, or packaging machines.
By fully automating the charging process, it significantly reduces manual labor while eliminating dust exposure and cross-contamination risks. Engineered with a high-efficiency filtration and separation system, it ensures only product reaches its destination.
This makes it the preferred choice for pharmaceutical, food, and chemical industries where hygiene, safety, and process integrity are paramount.
