Pneumatic conveying systems are the cornerstone of efficient material handling in modern industries. These systems come in different configurations, each tailored to specific materials and operational needs. From dilute phase to semi-dense and dense phase transport, RGS offers solutions that ensure safe, efficient, and precise transfer of materials across various applications.
-
Dilute Phase Pneumatic Conveying
Dilute phase systems rely on a high volume of air with lower pressure or vacuum, achieved using fans, side-channel impellers, or occasionally lobe pumps. These systems are ideal for:
- Medium-Range Transfers: Efficiently moving materials over moderate distances.
- Versatility: Supporting one or more discharge points from a single sampling point using a single pump.
- Cost-Effectiveness: Providing an excellent price-performance ratio.
In this system, materials float in the air at speeds of approximately 16–27 m/s, ensuring swift and reliable transfer without buildup or clogging.
-
Semi-Dense Phase Pneumatic Conveying
This specialized system is preferred in industries like pharmaceuticals and food processing, where material integrity is critical. Common applications include:
- Packaging Machines: Delivering materials without demixing or lamination.
- Precise Transfer: Using vacuum pumps or hooks for high vacuum and low air volume.
Materials travel at lower speeds of around 15 m/s, ensuring gentle handling of sensitive products while maintaining the desired composition and consistency.
-
Dense Phase Pneumatic Conveying
Dense phase transport is designed for the most demanding applications, such as handling fragile, abrasive, or mixed products. This system excels in:
- Long-Distance and High-Volume Transfers: Effectively moving large quantities over extended distances.
- Specialized Applications: Ideal for fragile materials that require gentle handling to prevent damage.
Materials in dense phase systems travel at speeds around 5–8 m/s, offering a controlled and efficient solution for critical operations.
