Powder hopper loaders for free-flowing materials

Efficiently transport free-flowing powders, including PVC and polyethylene, from storage containers to processing equipment, ensuring smooth material flow and reducing downtime in your production line.

Conveys and Filters Free-Flowing Powders

The PHL Powder Hopper Loaders from AEC is designed to effectively transport and filter free-flowing powders like PVC and PE, enhancing productivity in plastics manufacturing. Utilizing a high-performance, three-stage centrifugal vacuum motor and stainless steel construction, this equipment reliably conveys materials to hoppers, blenders, or surge bins, minimizing dust and material loss. It’s applicable in industries producing PVC pipes, polyethylene films, and regrind pellets. With a dual tube aluminum pick-up wand and a series one controller, it seamlessly integrates into existing production lines. The unit features a sound enclosure for reduced noise and can operate at voltages of 115/1/60 or 230/1/50, suiting various international standards. Maintenance is streamlined with a twin bag filter assembly and high flow blowback valve for cleaning efficiency. The option for brushless motors and remote control further enhances functionality, making it versatile for diverse manufacturing environments.
