The metal powder screening and conveying system is a high-efficiency processing equipment designed for fine, easily airborne metal powders such as ferroalloy powder and hard alloy powder. This system enables full automation and dust-free handling from raw material feeding to finished product packaging, ensuring a clean production environment and stable product quality.
- Material Processed: Metal Powder
- Capacity: 100-2000 kg/hour
- Screening Mesh Size: 80 mesh – 500 mesh
- Equipment Configuration: Rotary vibrating screen, vacuum feeder
System Components:
Material cart/drum → Vacuum conveying → Buffer → Screening → Packaging.
System Description:
Raw Material Feeding:
Raw materials are fed directly into the system via a material cart or drum, reducing manual intervention and improving operational safety.
Vacuum Conveying:
A vacuum feeder is used as the core conveying device, utilizing negative pressure to smoothly and continuously draw metal powder from the storage unit and transport it to the next stage through sealed pipelines. This process effectively prevents powder from becoming airborne, maintaining a clean production environment.
Buffer Stage:
The powder is temporarily stored in a buffer tank, which balances fluctuations in flow between the upstream conveying and downstream screening, ensuring stability during the screening process. The buffer tank is designed with anti-stick and anti-blocking structures to prevent powder buildup and clumping.
Precision Screening:
The rotary vibrating screen, as the core of the screening process, features a unique vibration mechanism and high-efficiency mesh design, allowing precise screening within the 80 to 500 mesh range. The screen can be quickly replaced to accommodate the production of products with different particle size requirements. The vibration intensity is adjustable, ensuring both screening efficiency and the prevention of excessive powder breakage.
Packaging Stage:
After screening, the metal powder is directly fed into automatic packaging equipment for quantitative packaging, reducing manual contact and improving packaging efficiency and hygiene standards.
