Levelling Powder Heaps in Containers Despite Limited Space – Using Compact Pneumatic Vibrators
In the chemical industry, efficient use of container volume is crucial to minimise transport and storage costs. Powders with a steep angle of repose tend to form material cones, wasting valuable space and potentially affecting process reliability. A fast and flexible solution was required to optimise filling – even in very confined spaces.
- No space available for a vibrating table
- Explosion protection required for ATEX areas
- Flexible solution for frequently changing container sizes
- High time expenditure due to manual levelling
Our solution
The customer selected two pneumatic vibrators from NetterVibration: the pneumatic turbine vibrator NCT and the pneumatic piston vibrator NTS. Both units are ATEX-certified and can be flexibly attached to different containers using the VAC vacuum mounting system. The vacuum mount allows quick and easy installation and makes the solution suitable for use in potentially explosive (ATEX) environments.
Our advantages
- Maximum utilisation of container volume
- Flexible mounting for frequent container changes
- High process reliability in ATEX areas
- Minimal space requirement, as no vibrating table is needed
