Vacuum
Loaders
Foremost Machine Builders
manufactures vacuum loaders for the process of transporting
raw material plastic pellets and reclaim material from a storage silo to
a blender, from one process station to another, and/or to the final
processing point. Boost the profitability of your process line by
reducing production costs. Efficient vacuum or pressure conveying
provided by Foremost vacuum loaders and receivers
can make a difference -- with high performance from either standard
or customized machines.
Our full line of loaders
include self-contained, central distribution and bulk loading components,
packages, and turn-key systems. The conveying rates for pellets,
powders, granules, and flakes range from 50 to 50,000 lb/hr.
Central Vacuum Systems
Models Available: VF-05, VF-07A,
VF-10, VF-15, VF-20, VF-25, VF-30, Format
IV Control Panel
Pneumatic conveying
receivers, from 0.2 to 8 cu.ft. capacity, offer single or proportional
material inlets. Choose filterless, blowback, or pulse-jet filtration
with filter media down to 1 micron. Control by timer, endpoint level,
or weight setpoint for optimal performance.
Whatever your specific
needs, you will benefit with Foremost's conveying equipment, known
for:
- low maintenance, low profile
- rugged construction
- accurate PLC or microprocessor controls
Plastic processors look to Foremost for practical solutions to
their material handling needs -- and for more than forty years we've
come through with cost-effective solutions.
When
high production is your goal, Foremost can provide you with central
vacuum systems. Our vacuum systems are available from 5 HP to 100
HP and up 27 stations. Our easy to clean central filter assembly
eliminates the need for blow-back and a sightglass on the filter
assembly lets the operator know the filter needs cleaning.
Material loading is accomplished through the following sequence
of operation: the positive displacement pump creates a vacuum on
the vacuum chamber closing the flapper valve. The material is then
drawn through a suction lance or from a vacuum take-away box via
tubing or flex hose to the vacuum chamber. The vacuum chamber can
be loaded by either a timing cycle which is easily adjusted at the
control panel or by an end point-control sensor mounted to the vacuum
chamber. After the loading cycle, the vacuum breaks causing the
flapper valve to open and the material drop into the process hopper.

Self-Contained
Vacuum Loaders
Models Available: B-6-2, B-8-6C,
C-13-6C, C-20-6C
The Foremost Self-Contained Vacuum units are ideal for moderate
hopper or bin loading tasks. These portable units offer fractional
horsepower brush type motors. The units feature a nylon filter and
compressed air for easy filter cleaning. Operation requirements
are 110V single phase AC and a convenient remote mountable control
panel. The loading cycle timer is adjustable for variations in materials
and conveying distances and is located inside the panel to minimize
the possibility of accidental readjustment of tampering by unauthorized
personnel. |
