Volkmann Japan List of Products and Services

Our company designs and manufactures vacuum conveyors for food and chemical plants, as well as semiconductor manufacturing facilities. Based on our testing experience with approximately 2,000 types of powders and over 4,000 installations in Japan, we achieve stable transportation that is resistant to clogging through customized designs. We contribute to the air transportation of a wide range of materials, including moist materials (hygroscopic materials) such as brown sugar and battery materials (lithium, NCM, black mass, etc.), as well as frequently used materials in food factories like flour, granulated sugar, abrasive alumina ceramics, and explosive materials such as metal powders. 【Features】 ■ Supports a wide range of transported items, including powders, granules, pellets, tablets, capsules, and small parts ■ A sealed structure using compressed air reduces the risk of dust scattering, foreign matter contamination, and sparks caused by static electricity ■ Compact modular design allows for easy disassembly and cleaning ■ Consistent support from hearing to actual machine testing and after-sales follow-up *You can view materials introducing the mechanisms and usage examples by downloading the catalog. We are also accepting demo tests. Please feel free to contact us.

▶Issue: Before further processing the powder in the next stage (such as packaging machines), it is necessary to inspect for the presence of metal foreign objects using a metal detector. To achieve high sensitivity, the powder needs to be inspected by free falling, but due to low ceiling height and operational inconvenience, it is not possible to install the metal detector in the next stage. ▶Solution: The CEIA metal detector will be installed under a Volkmann vacuum conveyor and on a Volkmann mobile lifting platform. The height-adjustable lifting platform will allow the product discharge outlet of the metal detector to be adjusted to the appropriate height for the mobile container. Additionally, the vacuum conveyor can be lowered to a height that allows the mobile lifting platform to pass through the door. The powder will be transported, for example, from an IBC container to the mobile lifting platform and then to the metal detector via vacuum conveying. Metal foreign objects will be sorted and collected in a separate bottle. The inspected powder will be collected in the mobile container. Another vacuum conveyor is installed for the next stage, such as the packaging machine, from which the powder will be drawn from this container. Inspection and separation of metal parts can be conducted very close to the next stage, as well as in more distant production areas.

The "VOLKMANN Vacuum Conveyor" differs from conventional mechanical conveyors in that it requires only "compressed air" to transport powders. Even those who are concerned that "the existing space is not large" will have no problems. Its compact design allows for easy installation. It is also suitable for those troubled by environmental issues and health risks due to dust. The sealed structure prevents dust generation and improves the working environment. Additionally, it avoids the risk of dust explosions caused by electrical sparks, providing everyone with safe and secure powder transport. 【Features】 ■ Easy installation due to compact design ■ Completely air-operated, eliminating ignition sources (ATEX certified) ■ Sealed structure with no dust generation, improving the working environment ■ Safe transport with suction plug transport ■ Easy to clean and hygienic ■ Quick and easy disassembly without tools *For more details, please download the catalog or feel free to contact us.

Our company handles a device called 'Vacuum Conveyor' that generates negative pressure using a vacuum pump to suck and transport materials (powders, solids). 【Benefits of Introduction】 ■ Risk Reduction - Manual powder feeding operations involve burdens on workers and the risk of falling from stairs. → Achieved safe transport with VOLKMANN. ■ Replacement Value - Mechanical conveyors have many parts, leading to high cleaning and maintenance costs. → Achieved efficiency with VOLKMANN. ■ Cost Reduction - Tasks performed manually incur time and money. → Achieved labor savings with VOLKMANN. *Related Link https://volkmann.co.jp/vacuumconveyor/

Features of our air transport device "Vacuum Conveyor": - Capable of transporting rice without contamination due to its sealed piping structure. - Easy to replace existing conveyors due to its compact design. - Flexible layout thanks to piping transport. - Easy to clean, reducing downtime during product changeovers and in case of troubles.

When food mixtures are transported at high speed to packaging and filling machines, there is a risk of classification due to differences in specific gravity. The Volkmann ejector enables a high achievable vacuum level of -91 kPa, allowing for the area of "plug transport." This results in a gentler product transport speed, maintaining the mixing ratio during conveyance. We ensure that consumers do not notice differences in the composition of instant soups.

The simple pneumatic timer is compatible with all models of VOLKMANN vacuum conveyors. It can accommodate numerous controls, including suction, line cleaning, discharge, and delay. Since it does not use any electrical components, it can be used in explosion-proof areas. You can choose the housing material from plastic or stainless steel. *Please check the related links for more details.*

The VOLKMANN filters, equipped with high-level reliability and the best separation rates, utilize durable filters that can be easily removed and cleaned. - PE-HD filter elements made from FDA-compliant materials approved by BIA (separation rate > 99.99%, for materials > 5μm) - Stainless steel filter cartridges - Filter cartridges with conductive polyester nonwoven fabric and PTFE membranes (FDA compliant, for materials over 0.5μm) - 104070 FilterQX100PEHD - 104071 FilterQX200PEHD - 104072 FilterQX300PEHD - 104044 FilterQX100Ti07 0.07OF - 104045 FilterQX200Ti07 0.14OF - 104058 FilterQX300Ti07 0.21OF - 104047 FilterQX200Ti07 0.28C - 104046 FilterQX300Ti07 0.45C - 105587 Filter mounting kit QX (silicone) - 105590 Sealing QX (silicone)

The air-operated pinch valve is directly actuated by compressed air. The internal elastic sleeve is compressed by the supplied air. Due to the special structure of the case, the sleeve is crushed into a lip shape. This ensures that the flow of powders/granules is 100% sealed. *Since it is air-operated, it can also be used in explosion-proof areas.
