Pneumatic Conveying Bulk Powder Transfer and Dispensing System

Pneumatic conveying systems, or air conveying systems, are the workhorse for modern material conveying of bulk powders. Mechanical conveyors are used where pneumatic conveyors are not suited for one reason or another.

Dry powders and granular products are produced in bulk to facilitate easy handling, transportation, transfer, storage, and blending or mixing into recipes as ingredients to the final product. Examples of types of products conveyed pneumatically are food ingredients, plastics, metal powders, propellants, small parts, etc.

Pneumatic conveying systems can be configured as portable or central systems with numerous transfer points along the path of the system. Material in powder or granular form can be transported in pipelines under negative conditions (vacuum) or positive conditions (pressure).

A dry material pneumatic conveying system line is fed using a metering device or a manual feed device. While a metered system is best suited to a process where volumes are high and accuracy is critical, a manual system is sufficient for small batching operations. Pneumatic conveyance of dry materials can be accomplished with dedicated equipment or multi-purpose equipment. A portable or central vacuum system can effectively be used for conveying dry materials and materials that have escaped a mechanical conveyor system at transfer points or vessel fill points.

Case Studies

Industrial Lint Removal

Air Dynamics was able to provide a LRS II system for a client In Reno, Nevada who needed a lint filtration system to handles its' heavy-duty laundry operation.

Challenge

Peppermill had new ironers that generated more lint into the production area, creating a fire hazard. 

Solution

Air Dynamics performs a ACGIH certified industrial ventilation risk assessment and analysis for each project.

Silica Containment & Control

Air Dynamics Industrial Systems Corporation manufactures an industrial dust collector ventilation system for PPG.

Challenge

The major challenge faced by PPG was a high amount of silica dust being produced in their glass-cutting process.

Solution

Air Dynamics is a turn-key manufacturer, which means the project is taken from concept to installation by Air Dynamics’ project managers.

Testimonials Although they laughed, that didn’t faze us – we did our research and we had confidence in Air Dynamics’ application engineer we worked with.

"We’re a resource recovery company. We selected two PLĒCO 30 HP portable vacuum systems configured for bulk pickup. Our customer just laughed at us when the Air Dynamics PLĒCO vacuums showed up. They actually said, ‘they‘d never work!’ Although they laughed, that didn’t faze us – we did our research and we had confidence in Air Dynamics’ application engineer we worked with. The plant had a $100,000 central vacuum system; they even tried a “super sucker” with no decent results. The company gave up trying to recover the powdered tungsten themselves. We had their plant cleaned up in record time, even though the powdered tungsten weighed 1,150 pounds per cubic foot!"

- M. Hakli – resource recovery firm
Testimonials

"We love the vacuum and use it just about every day in our normal everyday routine. It has been a major help with maintaining clean floors and machines. We have also used it to unplug clogged pneumatic conveying lines where compressed air did not effectively work. In the past, we used brooms and compressed air to clean which caused the dust to float in the air, moving from surface to surface. The PLECO vacuum eliminates floating dust and its suction is powerful enough to get the fine dust out of the cracks and off the floor quickly. I like that it’s portable to move it where you need it."

Testimonials

"Daniel Lehman was so much more knowledgeable than the competition- probably more knowledgeable than anyone in the country, about industrial vacuums."

- C. Milum, Textile Company
Testimonials We recommend Air Dynamics!

"Working with Air Dynamics was an incredibly enjoyable experience for our engineering firm. They brought expertise to the table that we did not necessarily have in-house, and they conveyed it in a way that was easy for us, our shareholders, and our executives to understand. We would recommend Air Dynamics for anyone looking for a pneumatic or material handling conveying solutions."

Testimonials

"We purchased the PLĒCO 8.5 HP vacuum for our powdered colors business. We chose this substantially built vacuum over a European import that didn’t offer what this American made system did. We purchased a second unit because the first system performed excellent even after filling the canister again and again without affecting the pressure drop across the filters at all.
