POWDER HANDLING FOR FOOD PRODUCTION
Vacuum transport and powder handling for food manufacturers needing to move powder, ingredients, and dry raw materials more safely and in a more controlled manner between process stages, with less dust, spillage, manual handling, and unnecessary production stops.
Typical applications in process plants
Vacuum transport is used in the food industry to ensure hygienic and closed transport without contamination.
Open material changes and manual handling can lead to dust in the room, increased cleaning, and a risk of contamination.
When ingredients are handled manually, it can lead to variations in flow, dosage, and product quality.
Sacks, containers, and raw materials often require repetitive lifting, which strains employees and slows down the process.
If the material flow is not stable, it can create waiting times, bottlenecks, and unnecessary interruptions in the line.
RELEVANT SOLUTIONS
Provak puts together the solution according to your materials, process, and requirements for operation, hygiene, and capacity. Here are the solution areas that are often relevant in food production.
Closed, dust-free transport of powders and ingredients between process steps.
Vacuum transport from Big-Bag to sieve, mixer, blender or container
Powder is transported via vacuum from a weighing container to the mixer. The process stops when the correct amount has been reached, the pipeline is emptied and dosed into the mixer.
For productions with high demands on hygiene, cleaning, and documentation.
Ours Premium High-quality vacuum conveyors for easy cleaning and demanding processes.
Ours basis Vacuum conveyors for smaller and slightly easier tasks that do not have very high demands
Gives Stable and uniform material flow Typically found under silos, cyclones or filters
WE WILL CLARIFY THAT TOGETHER
A solution for food production often consists of several components that together ensure stable feeding, transport, dosing, and control in the process.
The specific components depend on the material, capacity, space conditions, and cleaning requirements.
Bag charge
Steering and control
Big-bag handling
Cell cleaning
Vacuum pumps
Filter cleaning
Cases & Results
See how Provak has helped food producers with more controlled
handling, stable dosing and better flow in production.
Food
At CrispyFood, ingredients needed to be handled more efficiently and fed smoothly into production.
With a vacuum transport solution, manual handling was reduced and material flow became more controlled.
Food
At Arla, powder needed to be handled in a more controlled manner and fed stably into production.
With a customised vacuum conveying solution, the material flow became more stable, while operation, hygiene, and cleaning were considered within the solution.
Food
At Norhlund, manual handling of sugar was replaced by automated vacuum transport, making dosing more stable and freeing up employees from heavy lifting.
“This has made our production significantly more stable
– and removed the heavy lifting.”
