Vacuum conveyor for the food industry

A compact and cost friendly solution Gericke’s range of pre-engineered packaged vacuum conveying solutions have been designed to assist in unloading and refilling processes, driven by a venturi ejector or an electric vacuum pump. Dense phase systems can also be realized using high performance vacuum conveying systems. Over short distances, a dense phase conveying mode can be applied. Adaptable design The modular design provides the opportunity to adapt the suction device to various different handling or process equipment. Sack tipping, drum unloading, BBU Big Bag Unloading, feeder refilling, reactor loading, to name some examples. Pre-engineered vacuum conveyors are compact and light and are suitable for manual or automated operation. Your Benefits • Dust free conveying. Potential leaks are contained within the system. • Operated with a vacuum ejector, simply connect the system to the existing compressed air supply and run the system. • Suitable for use in explosive atmospheres. • Hygienic construction available. • Compact and lightweight receiving vessels. • Batch or continuous transfer modes. • Additionally, Gericke can design and engineer dedicated vacuum transfer solutions. Applications • Fine and coarse powders, granules and bulky materials, small component parts. • 0.1 to 8 m3/h, conveying distances varying from a short elevation up to 40 m. • Additional equipment can be directly positioned in the conveying line (inline sifter, magnet separator, nibblers etc...). • Conveying of tablets and compacted particles. • Weighed vacuum receiver for mixer filling. • Feeder refilling, both volumetric and gravimetric. • Packing line supply.
