Industry: Aluminum

Pneumatic conveying of aluminum oxider and other dry bulk raw materials. Installations work in pressure and vacuum mode and are stationary or portable (e.g. barges and gantry type ship unloaders). Capability in pneumatic conveying system design.

Blowers (1000 mbar / 14.5 psig) and single stage oil-free screw compressors (3.5 bar / 50 psig) are used extensively.

The replacement of outdated sliding vane compressors (also known as rotary vane compressors, and Fuller compressors) with single stage Aerzen oil-free screw compressors reduces down-time and operating costs. Contact our sales engineers for an objective and thorough payback analysis and/or discussion on this subject. Case studies and extensive references are available, upon request.

Dust: Particular attention must be paid to filtration. Contact our sales engineers for tailored solutions based on the severity of dust loadings.

Extensive North American reference list available upon request, including some of the world's largest positive displacement blower installations.
