KEEP PRODUCTION GOING

Why Choose Pneumat?

Steel processing facilities that handle large volumes of product have to deal with clogs from powdered potassium chloride, coal and/or lime that can affect a positive flow. Using a number of solutions from Pnuemat, such as a BinWhip, BinDrill, AirForce Air Cannons, and/or Cardox, you can keep your processes flowing and keep your people safer and more productive at the same time.

Plus, we can clear up these clogs when they’re small problems and before they become big, expensive problems. Both the BinWhip and BinDrill units are designed to be modular so you can move them from bin to bin quite easily.

These machines are hydraulic powered and can fit into bins or bunkers of any shape or size. The hydraulic power is efficient and controllable, enabling more power to go into cleaning, rather than spinning in mid-air or blowing dust around like air-powered machines do. Because they are reversible, either machine can reach into all corners just by changing the direction of rotation, also allowing you to bring the drill up with ease. The BinWhip provides full hitting power and torque at all speeds, so you can operate our machine at lower speeds without losing control or power.

Steel processing plants can also use the Cardox tube solution, fastened from the outside of your equipment or storage vessel. This method eliminates the need for workers to enter the clogged area, eliminating danger from heat exposure, contaminated air or loosened materials. Because the Cardox tube is secured in a sealed coupler assembly, your operators are not exposed to flying debris associated with water injection and are not dangerously close to the blast area as with shotgun methods. Plant personnel operate from a safe distance while Cardox does the work.

AirForce Air Blaster System releases controlled blasts of compressed plant air (50-125 psi) from strategically located AirForce Air Cannons to break-up compactions in bins, hoppers, silos, or other types of storage facilities. The result is an uninterrupted flow of materials for continuous production and full capacity use of storage facilities at all times. Each Pneumat machine has been designed, built and used by us and our customers with great success. We are constantly improving their effectiveness and ease of use to keep Pneumat as the leader in bin cleanout technology.

We have the tools, and the experience to handle any type of bulk flow problem that might arise in your facility. We’ve either seen or we will figure it out.
