What is the air conveyor?
Air conveyors are a class of equipment for handling a material that uses positive or negative air pressure to move objects from one place to another. The most common type of air conveyor consists of pneumatic pipes containing either high positive air pressure or vacuum. When solid objects are placed in these pipes, they are either pushed forward by positive pressure or are sucked in a vacuum. Another type of air conveyor uses positive air pressure to reduce the friction of the surface, which makes it easier to move objects above it. This is somewhat similar to the non -non -cycled cylindrical conveyor in that some other force, such as gravity or manual work, must provide the necessary energy to move the object along this type of conveyor.
One type of air conveyor is usually referred to as a pneumatic tube system. These transport systems consist of pipes that can be used to move large objects, small parts such as nuts and screws, and even ufree pills. Some of these systems use a positive pressure that involves pushing objects through air pressure tubes generated by a certain type of compressor or blower. The pressure inside these tubes is often six times or more times normal atmospheric pressure, depending on the materials that are designed to move.
The second type of pneumatic tubular transport systems uses vacuum instead of air pressure. In some cases, the vacuum is generated at the end of the tubular system, although other design involves air injection into special collars that combine pipe lengths together. These collars contain a ring -shaped diaper chamber that forces compressed air into the system. The introduction of compressed air through this type of chamber creates a vacuum behind the collar that can suck objects along, and drive them through the system.
Another category of air conveyorU does not use no type of closed tube. These devices are sometimes ref. There are two different ways of working these conveyors, which include the creation of a thin layer of pressure air between the table surface and the object that needs to be moved. One method uses spherical valves that release pressure air when they come into contact with heavy objects, while the other uses a porous surface that covers the chamber diaper. Both of these methods result in an air conveyor that can allow the worker to move heavy objects with relatively small efforts.
