Hebei Cangzhou Rubber Plastic Long-Distance Pipeline Case

Case Overview

In Hebei Cangzhou, a rubber plastic long-distance pipeline project required a reliable material handling solution for bulk powder transport. The project involved transferring fine rubber and plastic powders over a significant distance, demanding consistent flow and minimal material degradation.

Client Challenges

The client faced several operational difficulties: frequent pipeline blockages due to powder agglomeration, high energy consumption from conventional pneumatic systems, and product loss from leakage and spillage. Additionally, the existing setup caused excessive wear on equipment, leading to costly maintenance and downtime.

Solution Provided by Headpowder

Headpowder delivered a customized dense-phase pneumatic conveying system designed for long-distance rubber and plastic powder transport. The system utilized low-velocity, high-pressure air to move materials gently, reducing particle breakage and preventing blockages. A specially engineered pipe layout minimized bends and friction points, ensuring stable flow over the full pipeline length. The solution also incorporated a closed-loop filtration and recovery mechanism to virtually eliminate material loss and improve workplace safety.

Key Product Features

• Gentle Material Handling: Dense-phase technology moves powders at low speed, preserving particle integrity and reducing dust generation.
• Energy Efficiency: Optimized air-to-material ratio lowers compressed air consumption by up to 30% compared to conventional dilute-phase systems.
• Long-Distance Reliability: Custom-designed pipeline with minimal resistance ensures consistent throughput over several kilometers.
• Leak-Proof Design: Sealed connections and robust couplings prevent spillage and contamination, supporting clean operation.

Product Specifications

• Conveying Capacity: Up to 15 tons per hour, adjustable based on material properties and distance requirements.
• Pipeline Diameter: Ranges from DN80 to DN200, with schedule 40 or 80 steel or stainless steel options.
• Maximum Conveying Distance: Capable of transporting materials over 1,500 meters with intermediate boosters if needed.
• Operating Pressure: 0.2 – 0.6 MPa, depending on material density and pipeline configuration.
