Vacuum Transfer Systems

Vacuum transfer systems are an excellent method of moving powder, granules, pellets and other materials from ‘Point A’ to ‘Point B’.

Example Uni-Vac Application: Feeding a Tablet Press

The systems use a vacuum to carry the material through the pipework, allowing material to be transferred in a gentle, yet rapid manner. This allows up to 4,000 kgs/hr to be transported, without significant disturbance to the characteristics of the product.

Vacuum Transfer of Pharmaceutical Powders

Vacuum transfer is an automated method of transporting material from Point A to Point B of a process, such as sucking powder directly from an IBC and transporting it to a hopper which will then load a tablet press.

This automated system negates the need for manual handling whilst offering increased throughput and safety.

‘Uni-Vac’ Conveyor Systems

Vacuum conveying is one of the most popular methods of material transfer.

The Uni-Vac vacuum conveyor can help automate the transfer of powder, granules, pellets and flakes - eliminating the need for manual handling, whilst dramatically improving productivity.

Vacuum Transfer Equipment for Food Processing

The food processing industry involves the handling of powders, granules, pellets and other food stuffs.

Vacuum transfer equipment can overcome many of the problems posed by the manual handling of material, such as dust containment and contamination issues.  Moreover, the vacuum transfer of material can vastly improve productivity by significantly increasing throughput.
