Vacuum / Powder Transfer System
Advanced Vacuum & Powder Transfer Systems
A Vacuum or Powder Transfer System is a highly efficient pneumatic conveying solution designed to transport powders, granules, flakes, and pellets safely and cleanly. These systems are widely used in pharmaceuticals, food, dairy, chemicals, and specialty material industries where hygiene, accuracy, and operator safety are critical.
Although optimized for a single discharge point, these systems can pull material from multiple sources including silos, bag dump stations, bulk bag unloaders, drums, or feeding hoppers. Operating under negative pressure, they prevent dust escape—ideal for toxic, hazardous, or combustible powders.

Inquire NowHow Vacuum Conveying Works
- Material Pick-Up: Material is drawn from silos, drums, sack tip stations, or hoppers.
- Conveying Phase: Vacuum from a blower, pump, or venturi pulls the product through pipelines.
- Receiving Phase: Receiver separates product and air using filter assemblies.
- Discharge Phase: Material is discharged into mixers, dryers, blenders, reactors, or hoppers.
Conveying Styles:
- Dilute Phase – Fast, continuous flow for free-flowing powders
- Dense Phase – Gentle conveying for fragile or fine materials
Powder Transfer Systems (PTS) combine vacuum & pressure conveying, making powders behave “like liquids”, enabling closed-loop transfer, inert conveying, and full dust containment—ideal for explosive, toxic, highly sensitive powders.
