Automating the transportation of pellet and powder resin materials with a vacuum conveyor.
Are you still manually transporting pellet or powder resin materials? "LUTENA" is an air transport system that automates the transportation of resin in plastic molding factories and material supply processes, significantly reducing the workload. By utilizing the power of vacuum to transport materials, there is no need to manually lift bags or containers, which also reduces the risk of dust dispersion and material loss. It accommodates various resin materials, whether powdery or granular, and allows for smooth integration with molding machines, dryers, and mixers. The device is compact and easy to retrofit into existing lines, enabling flexible layout options. Additionally, with timer control and level sensor linkage, quantitative transport can also be automated, achieving both stabilization and efficiency in material supply. Not only does it reduce the physical burden on workers, but it also contributes to improving the working environment, ensuring clean material transport, and reducing the risk of foreign material contamination. It can be optimally designed according to the type of resin material and transport distance, making it the ideal solution for sites that require labor-saving and manpower-reducing measures. "We are entering an era where machines automatically transport materials that people used to carry." LUTENA eliminates the hassle and risks of resin transport, enhancing productivity and safety in plastic manufacturing environments.

Vacuum Conveyor Overview of a Simple Vacuum Conveying System The minimum configuration for a complete conveyor system requires the following three components: - Product Intake → Depending on the container (silo, big bag station, drum, etc.) where the material to be conveyed is placed, either a "supply station" or a "conveying gun" is used. - Conveying Line (Transport Pipe) → A pipeline or vacuum-compatible hose is used to transport a mixture of material and air. - Vacuum Conveyor and its Control System → The vacuum draws in the material, separating air and material with a filter. The material is collected in a tank located beneath the conveyor. Flow of Operation: 1. The material is transported through the conveying line to the vacuum conveyor by the force of the vacuum along with air. 2. After conveying for a specified time and collecting the required amount, the control system stops the vacuum, and the lower valve opens. 3. The material is supplied to its final destination (e.g., a container or product on a belt conveyor).

"Function of the Vacuum Conveyor" → During Conveying (Vacuum State) - The lower valve is closed, and the vacuum pump operates, creating a vacuum inside the housing. - Materials are suctioned through the pipeline and accumulate above the valve of the collection tank. - Some of the suctioned materials adhere to the filter located at the top of the housing. - Simultaneously, a pressurized state (overpressure) occurs in the backwash tank (compressed air tank) connected to each filter. → Discharge and Filter Cleaning - When the set conveying time ends, the vacuum pump stops. - The lower valve opens, and the collected materials are discharged downward. - At the same time, the filters are backwashed (reverse flow cleaning) with compressed air from the AirShock tank. - After that, the valve closes again, and the next cycle begins.
