Increasing requirements to product quality results into process optimization and/or improvements by our clients.

For Zeppelin it means permanent modifications of bulk solid's characteristics needed to be implemented in our design to achieve an optimum design for our systems.

To achieve this, we need first class, first hand information.

For this reason, the Zeppelin Test Center has been equipped with all components and systems which are relevant for material handling process technology.

 

Conveying technology

  • dense phase and dilute phase conveying of pellets and powders
  • hydraulic conveying of pellets
  • dense phase conveying of sensitive bulk solids (bypass system)
  • combined suction and pressure conveying of pellets and powders
  • rotary feeders available in various sizes and types (high pressure, medium pressure, and blow-through types)
  • pressure vessels
  • feeding systems: Pump Flow or Screw Flow

Classifying, separation, cleaning

  • cleaning of pellets and removal of streamers by separators or drum sieve
  • pig systems for cleaning pipelines
