New Filquip Portable Vacuum Conveyor – FVC

Filquip has worked with the Coffee Roasting and Calcium Powders industries to develop a Mobile Vacuum Conveyor with wand piece to allow staff to suck powders and granules from the bags and lift them up into their equipment.

The FVC mobile vacuum conveyor can lift almost any powder or granule product from bags or containers using the vacuum wand and lift it up into equipment such as roasters, hoppers and mixers.

Many processes involve staff lifting heavy bags or drums of powder or granules into equipment.  This exposes them to physical injury through incorrect lifting techniques or just lifting things that are too heavy.  One of the easiest ways to mitigate this risk is to use vacuum conveying to lift the powder or granules up into the equipment.

Portable Vacuum Conveyor

Coffee Vacuum Lifting Conveyor

  • Manufactured from polished 304 stainless steel.
  • Food grade suction hose (Suitable for food and pharmaceutical industries).
  • The unit comes on lockable wheels for mobility around the facility.

Magnetic Separators and Tube/Pipe Magnets

The new Stif Magnetic Separators and Tube/Pipe Magnets are now available from Filquip including manual and automated metal disposal options for your system.

The automated magnetic separators work by magnetising metals contained in the product flow which become held to the side wall magnet, the side wall magnet flap then opens with the metals still magnetised, with the magnetic flap open over the discharge chute demagnetisation occurs depositing the metals into the waste chute.

The automated magnetic separators come in three standard sizes:

Chute Magnet

  • 200mm x 350mm (Throughput 100 m3/hr)
  • 200mm x 650mm (Throughput 200 m3/hr)
  • 200mm x 950mm (Throughput 300 m3/hr)

The manual tube/Pipe Magnets are designed to intercept metals contained in the product flow and hold them to the magnetic body for cleaning and disposal. The tube or pipe magnets come in eight standard sizes:

  • 100mm Diameter (Throughput 10 m3/hr)
  • 150mm Diameter (Throughput 35 m3/hr)
  • 200mm Diameter (Throughput 85 m3/hr)
  • 250mm Diameter (Throughput 130 m3/hr)
  • 300mm Diameter (Throughput 200 m3/hr)
  • 400mm Diameter (Throughput 260 m3/hr)
  • 500mm Diameter (Throughput 310 m3/hr)
  • 600mm Diameter (Throughput 400 m3/hr)

New Dense Phase Conveying Brochure

Filquip has a new Dense Phase Conveying Brochure detailing the Sand Conveyingadvantages of a Dense Phase Conveying system for materials handling.

Detailing the different models that can be provided to convey almost any product at flow rates up to 100T/h and distances up to 500m. Dense phase systems are perfect for conveying hard to handle products and can be filled from Bulk Bag Unloaders, Silo’s, Hoppers, Chutes, Screw Conveyors and most other filling equipment types.

Some of the advantages include:

  • High product conveyed to Air used ratio = Energy saving and cost saving
  • Less moving parts = Reduced maintenance and costs
  • Lower velocity conveying = Lower pipeline wear = Reduced maintenance and costs
  • High Internal cleaning = Increased efficiency
  • Completely closed system = Increased safety
  • Reduced product stratification and impacts = Perfect for fragile and mixed materials

Seperation of cement fines from reclaimed concrete truck wash water – Filquip Filter Press

Filquip has recently completed trials of its Filter Press units on the washRemoving suspended solids with filter pressFilter Press
out water from concrete trucks. The concrete returned from the job to the batch plant is washed out of the agitator truck into a pit or concrete reclaimer system (See WAM Consep concrete reclaimer). The wash water is separated from the sands and aggregates but contains suspended solids preventing it from being discharged to the sewer or re-used in concrete production.

A three plate trial Filquip filter press was setup and processed 3.6m3/hr of the reclaimed water slurry separating the suspended fines out.

Filtering the reclaimed water reduces the costs of using vacuum trucks to clean out the settled solids in tanks.
