Volkmann Japan List of Products and Services

We delivered 4 VS250 units and 4 bulk hopper units to the international fish processing company Van der Lee Seafish. Every day, 12,000 kg of breadcrumbs are vacuum conveyed, and the production line is filled with breadcrumbs daily. Therefore, we are replenishing the breadcrumbs used by the VOLKMANN units. *If you are interested, please download the catalog or contact us through our website.*

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.

At Pop Vriend Seeds in the Netherlands (a company that crossbreeds and sells various types of seeds), a large quantity of seeds is produced every day. We supplied two vacuum conveyors to the company. This has contributed to labor-saving and automation in the factory, achieving improved efficiency and cost reduction. There are sorting machines and sieves in the preceding and following processes, and by linking them with the vacuum conveyors, we designed overall automation. *If you are interested, facing challenges with powder and bulk handling, or considering design options, please feel free to contact us through our website.

Pharmaceutical raw materials are transported by air from the container and supplied to the tablet press via our vacuum conveyor (two VS200 units). At that time, due to the process that dislikes segregation, adjustments were made for "plug transport," and the automatic operation was designed and manufactured in collaboration with FETTE. Due to the low ceiling height of the production equipment, we also designed a custom lift and turning device for the customer. *If you are considering transportation to the tablet press or are struggling with the design, please contact us through our company website.

High moisture-absorbing brown sugar can cause rat holes in hoppers and blockages in hoses, making it unsuitable for air transport. With the help of our "experienced staff's ideas" and "partner companies," we were able to create a stable air transport system. We achieved a transport capacity of 1.5 tons per hour using the VS350 over a transport distance of approximately 20 meters. *Due to special design/specifications, please contact us through our company website if you are interested!

We received a request from a customer to transport ingredients for baked goods such as sugar, salt, starch, and flour in a sealed structure. A transport capacity of 1,000 kg/h and an input accuracy of less than 1% are required. To achieve this, we designed a supply hopper with dust collection functionality for six ingredients. Depending on the characteristics of the materials, it is equipped with bridge breakers, mixing devices, and fluidization devices. From the above hopper, the ingredients are transported to a central large hopper via six vacuum conveyors. Below the vacuum conveyors, Volkmann vibrating feeders are installed. These can fill in gram units. To optimize valuable production time, we designed a system that supplies all six different ingredients to the large hopper simultaneously. *If you are considering not only transportation but also weighing and filling, or if you are struggling with design, please feel free to contact us!!

In accordance with the specific chemical substance hazard prevention regulations mandated by the Ministry of Health, Labour and Welfare, there was a need to improve the traditional manual powder handling process. Our conveyor system, which can be constructed with a sealed structure for transportation, was adopted, resulting in a dust-free operation. Using the VS250, we have achieved a transportation capacity of approximately 2600 kg/h over a distance of 10 meters (including 5 meters vertically). *If you are interested, please contact us.*

Highly moisture-absorbent NCM frequently causes blockages within hoses and is unsuitable for air transport. However, a sealed structure is essential for preventing health hazards from specialized substances. If you are facing such concerns, please consult us! With the ideas of our experienced staff and the support of our partner companies, we have been able to create stable air transport equipment. *For detailed specifications, please contact us.*

This system performs weight measurement by installing a vacuum conveyor on a special frame, completely isolating it from external forces and loads. The filling weight is continuously measured during the suction cycle. Our CONWEIGH vacuum transport and weighing/filling system measures both the input and output of bulk materials. These systems can be set to transport a constant amount of product or control the supply quantity over time. CONWEIGH offers a vacuum conveyor with a fine discharge function that achieves an accuracy of up to 99.7%/99.9% (depending on the material condition and installation location).
