Whether conveying wood flour, pigments, antimicrobials, emulsifiers, or fibers, VAC-U-MAX dry bulk solids handling systems incorporate pneumatic, aero-mechanical, and flexible screw conveying technologies. VAC-U-MAX systems convey from handfuls per hour, to 25,000 pounds per hour (11,500 kg/hr), automating plastics processing, while keeping plants and personnel safe. The VAC-U-MAX product line includes a wide array of vacuum receivers that convey powders, granulars, and difficult to convey materials from sources like bags, bulk bags, totes, drums, and more, to extrusion lines. VAC-U-MAX bulk bag loading and unloading systems incorporate many options that aid in the discharge of bulk materials from bulk bags, introducing dry bulk solids to the line. Bag dump stations offer integrated dust collection, with optional pneumatic bag lifting, and empty bag compacting, helping eliminate slip/fall hazards. VAC-U-MAX feeder refill systems refill single/twin screw or vibratory tray feeders with “keep full” capabilities where feeders never run out of material. Product range also includes aero-mechanical and flexible screw conveying systems, ColumnLift(TM) vacuum conveying systems, mobile vacuum conveying systems, mixer/blender loading systems; and direct charge blender loading systems. VAC-U-MAX is a UL-listed designer and fabricator of control panels, maximizing the coordination and movement of materials to the process. Product range also includes a full line of industrial vacuum cleaners including portable compressed air operated combustible dust vacuum cleaners, continuous duty vacuum cleaners for up to 5 tons per hour, and custom designed central vacuum cleaning systems.
