Description

The Vacuum Feeding Machine is a versatile equipment used in various industries for automatically conveying and feeding powder and granular materials from storage bins into hoppers. Controlled by a PLC, it offers features such as stable performance, labor-saving operation, and reliability. This machine is commonly utilized in industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, plastics, and chemicals. It operates by creating a vacuum to suction materials through a pipeline, driven by airflow to complete material conveying. The equipment typically includes components like a blowback cylinder, vacuum generator, control system, rotary cylinder, feeding pipe, suction pipe, air filter element, and control panel. With its stainless steel composite structure and automatic feeding control for different materials, the Vacuum Feeding Machine ensures efficient and contamination-free material handling while enhancing production capacity.

Function

The working principle of the Vacuum Powder Feeding Machine is as follows:

  1. Material Suction Process:
    • The machine features a pneumatic valve beneath the silo, allowing only air intake at the feed port.
    • A hose connects the air inlet to the suction gun, which is inserted into the material pile for suction under negative pressure.
    • During suction, the pneumatic butterfly valve intermittently opens (e.g., every 20 seconds) to release material into the hopper.
    • The negative pressure fan draws air through a filter tube, expelling it into the atmosphere. The filter tube ensures clean gas discharge.
  2. Filter Cleaning Mechanism:
    • Over time, fine plastic powder may clog the filter cloth, increasing pressure loss and impacting filtration and feeding efficiency.
    • To address this, the filter is equipped with a pulse device that releases compressed air to dislodge accumulated dust from the filter bag.

This process ensures efficient material suction and transfer while maintaining a clean working environment. The periodic release of material from the hopper and the filter cleaning mechanism optimize the machine’s performance by preventing clogging and ensuring consistent material flow.

Features

The features of a Vacuum Powder Feeding System can be summarized as follows:

  1. Feeding Equipment:
    • Utilizes a container to convey materials from the discharge port of preceding equipment, ensuring a continuous material flow.
  2. Material Pipelines:
    • Consists of stainless steel sanitary pipes, PU hoses, and other suitable materials for efficient and hygienic material transfer.
  3. Vacuum Source:
    • Employs various vacuum sources such as water circulation vacuum pumps, Roots vacuum pumps, or multi-stage vacuum generators to provide the necessary vacuum power for material transportation.
  4. Filter System:
    • Equipped with a high-precision filter capable of achieving filtration accuracy down to 0.3 microns, ensuring clean and contaminant-free material transfer.
  5. Unloading Valve (B4):
    • Includes components like butterfly valves, fan shut-off mechanisms, and other devices for controlled and efficient unloading of materials.
  6. Material Receiving Devices:
    • Comprises equipment like silos, mixers, reaction vessels, packaging machines, screening machines, etc., facilitating further processing or packaging of the conveyed materials.
