Suitable for the material characteristics and production scenarios of silicone granules, the pneumatic conveying system for silicone granules achieves automatic material delivery through sealed pipelines, effectively avoiding dust pollution and efficiency bottlenecks caused by traditional manual handling. Head Powder offers customizable pneumatic conveying solutions tailored to the fragile and hygroscopic characteristics of silicone granules, helping users achieve stable, clean, and low-loss material flow.

Customer pain points

In the production and post-processing stages of silica gel granules, many factories still face the following challenges:
· Mechanical conveying devices lead to a high rate of particle breakage, affecting product quality;
· The open conveying process generates a large amount of dust, polluting the workshop environment and affecting employee health;
· Manual or semi-automated loading and unloading are inefficient and cannot meet the demands of continuous production;
· The system consumes more energy, increases maintenance costs, and makes it difficult to control the delivery volume accurately. These pain points directly restrict capacity improvement and quality stability.

Material characteristics

Silica gel particles are porous adsorbent materials with the following typical physical properties:
· Moderate density, but a wide particle size range (usually 0.5-3mm);
· The surface has a microporous structure, strong moisture absorption, and is prone to moisture and caking;
· It is relatively brittle in texture and easily breaks into fine powder during collision or compression;
· Average flowability makes it easy to bridge or block pipelines. To address these characteristics, the conveying solution requires a design approach of low flow rate, low pressure, and fully sealed design.

Product Introduction

Head Powder's silicone particle pneumatic conveying system offers various forms such as positive pressure dilute phase, negative pressure suction transport, or dense phase conveying based on material characteristics and user site conditions. The system consists of a feeder, conveying pipeline, dust separation and removal equipment, gas source equipment, and electrical control components, and can adapt to different distances (10 meters to several hundred meters) and different conveying volumes (from several hundred kilograms to several tons per hour). Core components are made of wear-resistant materials, optimized for airflow design, reducing the frequency of particle collisions and lowering the risk of damage. It can also integrate automatic metering, reverse blowing cleaning, and other functions to achieve unmanned operation.

Product advantages

To address customer pain points, Head Powder focuses on solving the following issues in solution design:
· Low damage conveying: By adjusting airflow speed and material-gas ratio, silicone particles flow suspended inside the pipeline, resulting in minimal mechanical contact and a low breakage rate;
· Sealed and dust-free: Fully sealed under negative or positive pressure conveying to prevent dust leakage, ensuring the workshop environment meets environmental protection requirements;
· Energy-saving and efficient: Uses high-efficiency separators and energy-saving Roots blowers, reducing overall energy consumption by about 20% to 30% compared to traditional mechanical conveying;
· Intelligent control: Equipped with PLC and touchscreen, it can monitor conveying pressure, material level, flow rate in real time, and supports remote control to reduce manual intervention.
