Fluidizing bed for bulk material discharge
Optimize your material flow with a fluidizing bed designed for seamless discharge of challenging bulk solids, ensuring uniform, pulsation-free material output while efficiently integrating with your existing production line.
The FB Discharge Bottom from Zeppelin Systems is designed to optimize the handling of bulk and powder materials through efficient fluidizing and discharge processes. This pneumatic aeration system is integral for industries such as chemical, food, and plastics, ensuring smooth and even flow of materials like flour, powdered chemicals, and plastic pellets to downstream equipment. With its robust construction, the system uses a bored mating flange for secure installation onto storage silos and containers, facilitating applications from mixing to temperature control. Its design includes optimized gas consumption and structural chamber arrangements to deliver pulsation-free output and virtually residue-free discharge.
The FB Discharge Bottom supports continuous and automated operations, integrating seamlessly with rotary valves, conveying screws, and other transport systems. The equipment offers durable and low-maintenance performance, with materials available in powder-coated steel or stainless steel for enhanced corrosion resistance. Its temperature range between -10° and 70°C and ATEX compliance make it suitable for varied industrial environments. With the option for a process gas reservoir or compact blower, as well as customizable funnel gradients, this discharge solution is tailored to meet the specific demands of your production line, backed by Zeppelin Systems’ engineering expertise.
