Typical applications
piFLOW premium is typically used in productions where materials need to be conveyed in a closed system, and where hygiene, cleaning, documentation, and stable operation are crucial to the process.
When powders and ingredients need to be handled in productions with high demands for hygiene, documentation and controlled processes.
When materials need to be safely transferred between process stages with a focus on cleaning, waste, product quality, and operation.
When powder needs to be fed stably to mixers, fillers, tanks or other processing equipment.
When the solution needs to be easy to separate, clean and adapt to production hygiene requirements.
THIS IS WHY MANUFACTURING COMPANIES CHOOSE piFLOW PREMIUM
piFLOW premium is developed for productions where materials must be moved safely and in a controlled manner, while hygiene, cleaning and documentation must be considered in the solution from the outset.
The material is moved in a closed system, which reduces waste, dust in the production environment, and the risk of contamination.
The solution can be adapted to the production's requirements for cleaning, separation, and access to the parts that need to be kept clean.
piFLOW premium is dimensioned according to material, capacity, transport distance, process flow, and the requirements that apply in your production.
A good choice for productions where hygiene, documentation, operational reliability, and controlled material handling are crucial.
WE WILL CLARIFY THAT TOGETHER
The choice of piFLOW premium is not just about the conveyor itself, but about the material, the cleaning, the documentation and the requirements that the solution must meet in your production.
Materials and properties
Inflow and outflow
Hygiene and cleaning requirements
Documentation and standards
Conveying distance and capacity
Space conditions and mounting
Therefore, Provak always begins by understanding your processes and requirements before recommending a specific solution.
Advantages in production
piFLOW premium helps to make material transfer more controlled and easier to clean in productions where hygiene, documentation, and operational reliability are crucial.
The closed system reduces open material transfers and helps keep production cleaner and more controlled.
The solution can be adapted to requirements for access, separation, and cleaning to suit your process and hygiene level.
When the material is transported uniformly between process steps, it becomes easier to create stable and controlled production.
A good choice for productions where material selection, process requirements, and documentation need to be considered from the outset.
piFLOW premium is a strong choice for high demands regarding hygiene, cleaning, documentation, and controlled processes. If robustness, flexibility, and stable operation are most important, piFLOW industrial may be a better choice.

Cases & Results
See how vacuum conveying can create more controlled and hygienic handling in production.
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.

Here you will find short answers to the most common questions about application, hygiene, cleaning, documentation and selection of piFLOW premium.
piFLOW premium is used for the vacuum conveying of powders, granules and other dry materials in productions with high demands for hygiene, cleaning, documentation and controlled material handling.
A PIAB Premium vacuum conveyor makes sense in production when you need high operational reliability, flexibility, and gentle material handling – typically in more demanding or critical applications. And when there are many product changes (flexible production).
The premium range is designed in:
Honey, sugar, salt, Cocoa, coffee, spices, Protein powder, starch, Chemical powders (e.g. pigments, fillers), APIs (active ingredients, Tablet granules, Lactose and excipients. Abrasive materials (require wear-resistant components) Sticky powders (require special filters/solutions)
Very light materials (e.g. flakes)
Mixed products (mix of powder + granules)
Yes – the piFLOW® Premium is specifically designed to be integrated into existing production lines. This is one of the system's biggest advantages.
This is how and when it makes sense:
piFLOW Premium can typically be integrated without major renovations. Can be connected to existing process equipment such as: Mixers, Silos / containers, Filling machines, Big bag / IBC container filling/emptying.
A BASIS piFLOW-industrial should be chosen when there is no need for frequent cleaning, and when operation is less than 2 hours per day.
