Pneumatic glass powder conveying solution

During the processing and transportation of glass powder, traditional manual or mechanical conveying methods often face issues such as dust blasts, high material loss, severe equipment wear, and harsh working environments. Frequent pipe blockages and cleaning processes not only slow down production rhythms but also pose potential health risks to operators. Companies urgently need a sealed, stable, and low-maintenance conveying solution to address the dual pressures of efficiency and environmental protection.

Material characteristics

Glass powder is a high-hardness, fragile, and highly abrasive powder with a wide particle size distribution (usually between 20 mesh and 325 mesh), average fluidity, and obvious moisture absorption. During transportation, static electricity is easily generated, causing dust explosion risks, and rapid wear of pipeline elbows, valves, and other components. Therefore, it is recommended that the sealing, explosion-proof design, and wear resistance of the conveying system strictly adapt to the characteristics of the material.

Product Introduction

Head Powder has launched a pneumatic conveying system for the glass powder industry, using a fully enclosed pipeline conveying method that relies on compressed air or airflow generated by fans to achieve sealed glass powder transport. The system includes a feeding device, conveying pipeline, dust separation and removal device, and automatic control module, allowing flexible customization of positive or negative pressure conveying paths according to the production line layout. The equipment has passed multiple dust explosion-proof certifications, meeting the stable conveying needs of glass powder from raw material warehouses to various production nodes.

Product advantages

To address customer pain points such as dust pollution, equipment wear, and low efficiency, this system offers the following solutions:
1) Fully sealed conveying: No dust escapes throughout the entire process from feeding to unloading, improving the workshop environment and reducing material loss.
2) Low-wear design: Pipeline elbows use wear-resistant ceramic linings or thickened materials, and key valves use sealed wear-resistant structures to significantly extend component lifespan.
3) Explosion-proof and anti-static: The system is equipped with grounding and static elimination devices, and the airflow speed is precisely controlled to effectively reduce the risk of dust explosions.
4) Intelligent control: PLC automatically controls conveying pressure, flow, and blockage removal logic, reducing manual operation, enabling multi-channel automatic switching and remote monitoring, enhancing overall production line stability.

Application areas

The system is suitable for pneumatic conveying scenarios of various glass powders such as glass microbeads, silicon micropowder, electronic glass powder, and photovoltaic glass powder. It can seamlessly connect with mixers, packaging machines, milling lines, and other equipment, helping enterprises achieve clean and continuous production.
