IVC Pumps Pvt. Ltd. Is A Manufacturer And Exporter Of Single Stage Water-Ring Vacuum Pump

A Pneumatic Conveying System is a method used to move bulk materials such as powders, granules, and other dry materials through pipelines using air or gas flow. It is widely used in industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, cement, and chemicals due to its efficiency, cleanliness, and ability to transport materials over long distances with minimal manual handling.

There are two main types of pneumatic conveying systems: dilute phase and dense phase. Dilute phase systems use high-velocity air to suspend and carry materials, making them suitable for light and non-abrasive products. Dense phase systems operate at lower velocities and higher pressures, pushing materials in a slug-like form. This makes them ideal for abrasive or fragile materials, reducing wear and tear on the system and protecting the product integrity.

working principle

The working principle of a Pneumatic Conveying System, such as that offered by IVC Pumps Pvt. Ltd., involves the transportation of bulk materials through pipelines using air or other gases as the conveying medium. The system starts with the generation of high-velocity air through a blower or compressor, which creates the necessary pressure to move the material. Bulk material is introduced into the air stream through a controlled feeding mechanism, allowing it to be suspended and conveyed through the pipeline. Depending on the application, the system can operate in either dilute phase, where materials are transported at high speeds and low densities, or dense phase, where materials are conveyed at lower speeds but higher densities. At the end of the conveying line, a separation system—such as a cyclone or bag filter—captures the bulk material from the air, allowing for efficient collection and minimal dust emissions. This technology is widely used in various industries due to its flexibility, space efficiency, and ability to handle a diverse range of materials with reduced degradation.
