Pneumatic conveying moves powders and granules through pipelines using compressed air, and sizing determines both reliability and energy cost.
Dilute vs Dense Phase
Dilute phase uses high velocity and lower pressure, while dense phase moves material slowly at higher pressure for fragile or abrasive products.
Sizing the Air Supply
Match flow to pipe diameter and product properties, and confirm pressure at the pickup point after all line losses.
Keeping Product Dry
Moisture causes bridging and clogs, so dry air with a controlled dew point is essential for consistent conveying.
