Pneumatic Zinc Oxide Conveying Scheme
During the production and processing of zinc oxide, enterprises often face issues such as materials being prone to dust, moisture, and frequent pipeline blockages. Traditional manual handling or mechanical conveying is not only inefficient but also prone to environmental pollution and raw material loss. In addition, zinc oxide powder has poor flowability and tends to stick easily, resulting in high equipment maintenance costs and long downtime. How to achieve sealed, stable, and low-loss conveying has become a common challenge in the industry.
Material properties: The chemical and physical characteristics of zinc oxide powder
Zinc oxide is a fine powder that is white or pale yellow, with a density of about 5.6 g/cm³ and a particle size typically between 0.1~10 μm. It features strong hygroscopicity, easy agglomeration, and mild corrosiveness to metals. During conveying, special attention should be paid to moisture prevention, anti-static, and leakage prevention, and to avoid severe impacts that could cause particle breakage. At the same time, zinc oxide is a moderately abrasive material, so wear on pipeline elbows, valves, and other components needs to be assessed in advance.
Product Introduction: Head powder zinc oxide pneumatic conveying system equipment
Head Powder offers customized pneumatic conveying solutions tailored to the material characteristics of zinc oxide. The system uses positive pressure dense phase or dilute phase conveying methods, using compressed air as the power source to transport materials from the storage silo through sealed pipelines to the workstation. The equipment includes feeders, conveying pipelines, air source treatment devices, separation and dust removal units, and intelligent control systems, adapting to production layouts with different distances and height differences. The core components of the system are made of wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant materials, equipped with automatic clogging and anti-static devices to support continuous operation.
Product Advantages: Directly addressing pain points, improving conveying quality and efficiency
- Completely sealed, free of dust: The system adopts a fully sealed pipeline design to prevent material leakage and dust leakage, meeting environmental protection requirements and protecting operator health.
- Low energy consumption and low damage: By optimizing airflow velocity and material-gas ratio, it reduces friction between the material and the pipe wall, maintains the integrity of zinc oxide particles, and simultaneously lowers energy consumption.
- Intelligent control is easy to maintain: Equipped with a PLC automatic control system for real-time monitoring of conveying pressure, flow, and material level, supporting remote start/stop and fault alarms, reducing manual intervention.
- Wear-resistant, anti-clogging, and long lifespan: Key elbow areas use ceramic lining or thickened stainless steel, combined with timed pulse backblowing devices, effectively preventing material buildup and clogging, and extending equipment maintenance cycles.
