Transporting your product
Depending on the product properties, transport distance, and required capacity, Dinnissen advises on the most suitable type of transport system. It is crucial that powders, granules, or pellets are moved from one location to another without damage or contamination. Based on factors such as the desired transport capacity and product characteristics like fragility and abrasiveness, the most fitting pneumatic or mechanical transport solution is determined.
Dinnissen works closely with you to identify the transport system that best fits your production process. This not only considers your specific product properties and company needs but also how the product can be efficiently transported from one machine to another. Furthermore, Dinnissen always takes into account the existing building and systems to create a tailored design. Whenever possible, vertical transport is utilized to reduce the need for powered transport systems, contributing to a more efficient and energy-saving production process.
Our conveying and handling solutions
Dinnissen discusses potential solutions with you and provides advice on the most suitable choice for your process. Looking for a transport system that efficiently and hygienically moves your powders, granules, or pellets? Consider our pneumatic, mechanical, horizontal, or vertical transport systems, or our specialized solutions such as the Aeolus Lactose Conveying System. Keep reading to discover the transport systems developed by Dinnissen.
PNEUMATIc Conveying
For hygienic and efficient transportation of lactose, the Aeolus Lactose Conveying System is an excellent choice. This system prevents lactose buildup during pneumatic transport. With less cleaning required, downtime is reduced. Thanks to our expertise in pneumatic transport, Dinnissen offers a wide range of options to safely and dust-free move products. Key components in this process include the receiving hopper, which serves as the intake point for materials entering the system; the pressure vessel, which builds the necessary pressure to control the transport of materials through the system; and the cyclone, which efficiently separates dust and solid particles from the airflow, ensuring a clean and safe working environment. Depending on the product and transport conditions, dilute-phase transport, which moves the product at high speeds in a suspended state, or dense-phase transport, which moves the material more slowly in a "slug" through the pipeline, can be chosen. These technologies ensure minimal product damage and low air consumption, making both methods efficient for specific materials.
Mechanical Conveying
For both mechanical horizontal and vertical transport, Dinnissen provides reliable and energy-efficient solutions. Mechanical Horizontal Conveying solutions, such as conveyor belts and chain conveyors, are suitable for fragile and sticky products that need to be transported over short distances—either packaged or not—without damage. Mechanical Vertical Conveying, such as screw conveyors and elevators, is ideal for moving products between different levels in the production process, such as bulk goods or other delicate materials.
Vibrating Conveyor
A specialized solution for fragile products is the Vibrating Conveyor. This system uses vibrations to move bulk goods such as powders and granules without the product meeting moving parts. This maintains optimal hygiene and makes the system easy to clean, making it ideal for processes where cleaning is crucial.
Bag handling
Dinnissen also offers solutions for Product Handling, such as transporting and processing sacks, containers, and Big Bags. Our product processing systems include roller conveyors and chain conveyors specifically designed for efficient and hygienic handling of packaged bulk goods.
Curious which solution best fits your production process? Dinnissen is happy to work with you and provide tailor-made systems based on your specific product and process needs.
Applications of Conveying & Handling
Dinnissen provides customer-specific solutions for the hygienic and efficient transportation of a wide range of products, from powders and fine particles to more delicate materials. By utilizing innovative pneumatic and mechanical transport systems—such as conveyor belts, chain conveyors, and vibratory conveyors—Dinnissen perfectly meets the needs of customers in the food, dairy, pharmaceutical, and chemical industries. Leading companies in these sectors rely on Dinnissen due to the high cleanliness and ease of use of the systems, which enable compliance with strict hygiene and safety standards.
Safe and hygienic product flow
For example, the Pneumatic Conveying System, with smooth inner walls and minimal accumulation points, ensures a safe, hygienic product flow that is essential for sensitive applications like baby powders and lactose-containing products. For specific processes in the food and chemical industries, the vibratory transport system offers a solution for safely moving fragile materials over shorter distances. Mechanical solutions, such as screw conveyors and elevators, also facilitate the seamless transfer of products between different process stages, enhancing efficiency and minimizing downtime.
By providing robust and reliable transport systems, Dinnissen helps companies in various sectors ensure product integrity and process continuity, allowing them to meet the highest quality standards.
