Pneumatic Conveyors

Use air to transport wet or dry metal chips

5-pneumatic conveyor_mediumThe pneumatic conveyor systems offer operation and installation flexibility. Sytems are designed to pick up directly from CNC machining centers and transfer wet or dry material to a central chip processing systems or load out containers.

Overhead conveyor piping allows flexibility of installation - near the ceiling or in tight spaces. The pneumatic design also allows you to easily reconfigure when modifying plant space.

  • Systems can be engineered with multiple pick-up points
  • Does not require plant air to operate

Positive Air

Blower Systems

  • PRAB chip fan transports dry chips up to 250 ft (76 m) or more
  • Positive displacement blower or PD pump can be fed by rotary air locks or eductors for multiple chip inputs and long distances
  • Cyclone receivers reduce chip velocity as they are conveyed through the system. Available in abrasion-resistant steel or manganese (for severe-duty) liners. Choose from automatic swivel chute or single discharge chute

Negative Pressure

Vacuum Systems

  • Vacuum blower transports wet or dry chips with multiple pick-up points to central processing location
  •  All systems utilize hardened bends and filter/cyclone receivers
  • All wear items are abrasion-resistant nickel plated.
  • Cyclone receivers reduce chip velocity as they are conveyed through the system. Available in abrasion-resistant steel or manganese (for severe-duty) liners. Choose from automatic swivel chute or single discharge chute
