Dust-free solution for a wide variety of food and chemical materials.
Dependable high output. Clean handling. Affordable cost.

How an aeromechanical conveyor works
Powderflight™ aeromechanical conveyors operate on a simple principle. Within a tube of mild or stainless steel, a wire rope with evenly spaced discs travels at high speed, running in sprockets at each end of the conveyor. The high speed action generates an internal air stream traveling at the same high velocity as the discs. As material is fed in, the air stream aerates or fluidizes it and carries it to the outlet, where it is discharged by centrifugal force.

Convey powders, granules, pellets, flakes or flocks
