Suction air conveyor
- Good material integrity: The corn flake suction air conveyor relies on the negative pressure generated by the fan to transport materials. The movement of materials in the pipeline is relatively stable, and the degree of collision with the pipeline wall is relatively light. It can effectively reduce the breakage of corn flakes caused by friction and collision during transportation, and better maintain the integrity of corn flakes and maintain their quality.
- Convenient multi-point feeding: It is particularly suitable for collecting corn flakes from multiple different feeding points and conveying them to the same unloading point. In actual production scenarios, if the source of corn flakes is relatively scattered, this corn flake suction air conveyor can flexibly absorb materials from various feeding points, achieve efficient centralized transportation, and improve the coordination and efficiency of the production process.
- Environmentally friendly: During the suction and delivery process of the corn tabletting suction and air conveyor, the material is in a relatively closed pipeline, which is not easy to generate dust and has less pollution to the working environment. It is conducive to creating a clean production workshop environment and ensuring the health of operators. It also meets the requirements of environmentally friendly production.
- The equipment is simple and easy to maintain: Its structure is relatively simple, mainly composed of fans, suction nozzles, pipes and other components. Compared with some complex conveying equipment, the corn tablet suction air conveyor has fewer parts, and installation, commissioning and subsequent maintenance are relatively easy, which reduces the maintenance cost and downtime of the equipment and improves the use efficiency of the equipment.
Working principle of corn flake suction air conveyor
The fan generates negative pressure to form suction at the suction nozzle, sucking the corn flakes into the pipeline. The corn flakes are transported to the designated location by the airflow in the pipeline. At the unloading point, the airflow state is changed or a separator is used to separate the corn flakes from the airflow to complete the transportation process.
Corn flake suction air conveyor structure
- Fan: As a power source, it provides power to generate negative pressure. The performance of the fan directly affects the conveying capacity and efficiency of the air conveyor. Common types include centrifugal fans.
- Suction nozzle: It is the entrance of the material. The design must ensure that the corn flakes can be effectively sucked in, while minimizing the excessive intake of outside air to improve the conveying efficiency. Its shape and size will be designed according to the actual application scenario and material characteristics.
- Conveying pipeline: used for material transportation, usually made of wear-resistant materials to reduce the wear of materials on the pipeline. The diameter, length and layout of the pipeline will be determined according to the actual production site and transportation requirements to ensure the stable transportation of airflow and materials in the pipeline.
- Separator: Installed at the unloading place, its function is to separate the corn flakes from the airflow. Common separators include cyclone separators and bag separators. The cyclone separator uses centrifugal force to separate the material from the airflow, while the bag separator achieves separation through filtering, ensuring that the material is unloaded effectively and the airflow can be discharged smoothly.
- Discharging device: responsible for discharging the separated corn flakes to ensure smooth discharging process and prevent material accumulation. Common forms include flap discharger, rotary discharger, etc.

Corn flake suction air conveyor technical parameters
- Conveying capacity: Affected by factors such as fan power and pipeline diameter, the hourly conveying capacity of small equipment may be 1-5 tons, while large equipment can reach more than 10 tons.
- Conveying distance: The horizontal conveying distance generally ranges from tens of meters to hundreds of meters, and the vertical conveying height is usually around 10-30 meters, depending on the fan performance and pipeline resistance, etc.
- Fan power: The fan power of small equipment may be 3-5kW, and the power of large equipment is above 10kW to meet different transportation requirements
