Use our expertise!With the experience from more than 10’000 installed pneumatic conveying systems, Gericke can offer the technology most suitable for your application.

THE RIGHT SOLUTION FOR ALL CONVEYING NEEDS ! Fragile goods Dense phase conveying is in many cases a perfect solution for the transport of fragile goods. Trials in our test centres help establish the best configuration, even for the most sensitive products. Long distances Positive pressure conveying can create a higher pressure difference than vacuum conveying and allows for many materials conveying distances exceeding 200 m and more. High capacities Many applications especially in heavy industries ask for high transport capacities. Even systems beyond 100t/h have been realised and prove their...

Reactor filling Direct conveying into a reactor is a safe and emission-free way to bring the product directly to the process. Conveying is even possible against overpressure, above or below liquid level. Global Service and Support – We speak your language With our global network of subsidiaries, test centres and partners, we support our customers in all parts of the world. Wherever you are, we will be with you. Bespoke solutions To satisfy even the most complex powder handling requirements, Gericke can custom create complete lines including product reception, storage, recipe preparation, mixing...

DENSE PHASE CONVEYING • For gentle product handling with no segregation, dense phase conveying is the perfect solution to preserve your materials. Dense phase pneumatic conveying systems are used when the product quality is of the highest importance. They minimise changes in bulk density and particle size distribution and also limit segregation effects. The absence of rotating parts in pressure vessels reduces maintenance costs. The advantageous ratio of product to conveying gas also makes our systems energy efficient. Pressure vessels are utilised within dense phase conveying systems to introduce...

Why dense phase solutions from Gericke? • Broad experience in gentle conveying of fragile products • Air and energy saving designs with sophisticated air control • Secure, proven and reliable Your benefits • Very gentle handling of fragile products • Minimised wear of pipeline and bends • Minimised seggregation of mixed products • Absence of rotating parts eliminate the danger of metal contamination and reduce maintenance costs • Gas and dust tight system with no leakage air • Batch weighing of pressure vessel possible • High solids loading leads to smaller pipe diameter • Low gas consumption...

DILUTE PHASE CONVEYING • Easy to implement and versatile, lean or dilute phase conveying can be the perfect solution for many nonsensitive powders and bulk materials. Lean or dilute phase conveying systems are the ideal solution for transferring bulk materials that do not require particle preservation and are not abrasive. Its advantage lies in the versatility of products that can be conveyed as well as in the space saving setup. The product is usually introduced by means of a rotary valve into the piping system. A sufficiently high gas velocity (typically >20 m/s) is required to keep the particles...

Why dilute phase solutions from Gericke? • Broad experience from many applications • Complete own range of rotary valves • Easy to clean valves for hygienic applications or product changeover Your benefits • Gericke lean phase conveying systems are economical and reliable solutions • Simple setup of the system • Little headroom necessary for installation • The throughput can be varied by controlling the rotational speed of the rotary valve • Lean phase conveying systems can be used with in-line sifters for screening applications • Gericke RotaVal rotary valves are available as easy to clean extractable...

• The compact and cost friendly approach to many conveying needs. Gericke’s range of pre-engineered packaged vacuum conveying solutions have been designed to assist in loading and refilling processes, driven by venturi ejector. Alternatively, a dense phase conveying mode can be approached by using an electric vacuum pump. The modular design provides the opportunity to adapt the suction device to various different handling or process equipment. Sack tipping, drum unloading, BBU Big Bag Unloading, feeder refilling, reactor loading, to name some examples. Vacuum conveyors are compact and light and...

STP 61 Conveying Controller Manage your pressure dense phase conveying process in a convenient and reliable way using the STP 61 controller. Can be run independently as a single unit, or integrated into a PLC environment via various types of buses or communication protocols. You gain flexibility and save costs and time because the programming is already complete and approved. You can also operate the conveying system independently from the status of the PLC. This is an advantage during commissioning and maintenance of your plant. • Selection of various conveying modes • Cost savings thanks to...
