In this month’s IAC Tip of the Month, Nathan Petrie dives into a crucial yet often overlooked part of pneumatic conveying and dust collection systems: pipe supports. Whether you’re designing a new system or troubleshooting an existing one, understanding static vs. dynamic loading and planning for maintenance accessibility can save time, money, and future headaches.
When discussing pneumatic conveying systems, handling the "ends of the line," both the feed end (where material enters the system) and the discharge end (where material exits the system), is essential for efficiency, reliability, and maintaining product quality. Here’s a comprehensive guide on how to approach both ends, focusing on the initial feeding of material into the line and the effective removal of solids from the conveying gas at the discharge end.

From the smallest elbow to the largest bin vent, knowing each part and piece of equipment is created for your particular pneumatic conveying process will help you save money, plan for maintenance, limit employee exposure, save energy, and increase your production rate. Over time, repeat fixes can become costly. Thus, it is important to ensure your system is outfitted specifically for your application and material.
Food manufacturers considering moves to create safer environments, save product, and cut waste can trust IAC to upgrade elements to create a more sanitary and food safe environment. IAC recently helped a confectionary company with updates to a dust collector dating back to the original construction of the plant 20 plus years ago. Over the course of the project, IAC revised ventilation, airflow, safety elements, and saved 800 pounds of product a week.

IAC’s newest innovation provides a labor saving and environmentally safe solution to capture, convey and remove waste dust and fines from collection points within your plant. Our Vacuum Transfer Systems pneumatically convey the waste dust and transfer them to a dedicated waste silo or other accumulation point with an automated truck loadout system for removal from the plant. These systems are designed to convey the waste material with 100% safety factor in design to rapidly deal with surges and unwanted slugs of material.
Do you know the difference between a filter receiver and a baghouse? Often times, people think the two systems are one in the same, but this could not be further from the truth.
