Conveying Blowers

The Kongskilde range of high pressure conveying blowers is specifically designed as an integral part of the Kongskilde pneumatic conveying range of equipment. The Kongskilde blowers are used in connection with other Kongskilde equipment in order to convey products from the plastic, packaging and printing industries.

Conveying Blowers The Power of Air

A wide range of equipment – manual, semi-automated and automated – is used in bulk material handling, involving consideration of the storage, control and protection of conveyed material.

Bulk handling systems focalise on equipment for handling dry materials, such as plastic granulates and recycle flakes. It is an essential process in many industries. Various types of equipment compose the conveyor systems that facilitate material handling. For instance, manufacturers use pneumatic conveying equipment to create cost-effective material handling systems.

An industrial blower can behave as an air movement device for this type of conveying system. High-pressure blowers act as power sources in many of the reliable and effective solutions we have available at Kongskilde Industries.

Evolution of Industrial Blowers: From Basic Fans to Modern Efficiency

Historically, manufacturers used weaker fans to supply air to systems, which limited the conveyance of light materials in small quantities. Modern industrial blowers, as equipment, facilitate the transfer of materials at much higher throughputs and over significantly longer distances. They also tend to operate at lower noise levels, feature weatherproofing, and allow for placement either inside or outside the production area.

Role and Placement of Industrial Blowers in Material Handling

You can implement industrial blowers at the beginning of the bulk material handling equipment line to deliver an overpressure, or place them at the end of the line to generate a vacuum. Additionally, blowers serve in cleaning and exhaust processes.

Mechanics of Industrial Blowers: How Centrifugal Fans Optimize Airflow

Industrial blowers have centrifugal fans, with forward or backward curved blades, that increase the pressure of incoming airstreams using impellers- accelerating air radially and altering outward flowing air direction.

Choosing the Right Industrial Blower: Critical Considerations and Kongskilde’s Expertise

Selecting the right industrial blower is an important decision in the area of material handling conveyor equipment: errors influence material flow rate and may necessitate changes to system sizing and design. Blockage may occur where active air flow is lowest within the system if equipment selection is inappropriate. Kongskilde Industries can and will assist in the consideration of all these factors and more, ensuring that the right decision is made.

Understanding Key Factors: Pressure Levels and Flow Rate in Conveyor Systems

Awareness of pressure levels and the volume of flow rate needed to move material through the bulk material handling equipment is important, as these factors can impact the conveyor system’s reliability. Information regarding the pipe sizing, distance and weight of material is also relevant.

Comparative Analysis of Forward and Backward Curved Fans in Industrial Settings

Forward curved fans suit low-speed and low-pressure applications well. Backward curved fans generate medium to high airflow and achieve the highest operating speeds. Designers tailor various centrifugal fan models to specific industrial needs, considering airflow, pressure, volume, and efficiency. Additionally, many of our models come equipped with self-cleaning rotors.

Kongskilde Industries designs effective conveying equipment, including blowers for clean air transport, ventilation, and material handling with centrifugal units. Recognizing that specific products excel in particular situations simplifies the selection process. This makes it logical and stress-free, a process we eagerly support and guide.
