Dense-Phase Pneumatic Conveying System
AGICO Pneumatic Conveying System
Positive-Pressure Dense-Phase Pneumatic Conveying System is specially designed for high-concentration, long-distance, and low-speed transportation. It exhibits extreme adaptability and stability, becoming the preferred equipment for many powder material engineering applications. It is widely used in the transportation of powdery or granular materials such as grains, cement, fly ash, mineral powder, and lime powder.
Application:
- Cement
- fly ash
- lime powder
- mineral powder
- grain powder
- feed
- chemical powder

characteristic of Dense-Phase Pneumatic Conveying System
Working Principle of Pneumatic Conveying System
The AGICO positive pressure dense-phase pneumatic conveying system is mainly composed of the feeding tank, compressed air system, pneumatic valve group, pipeline system, and intelligent control system, etc.
Workflow of material transportation:
- The powder in the storage bin enters the sealed feeding tank.
- The system introduces compressed air into the feeding tank, and the powder and air mix.
- The gas-solid mixture is transported along the pressure direction through the conveying pipeline.
- After reaching the destination (such as the top of the steel plate storage bin), it automatically discharges.
- The pipeline is automatically emptied and enters the next round of feeding.
Investment Analysis of Dense-Phase Pneumatic Conveying System
The AGICO Positive-Pressure Dense-Phase Pneumatic Conveying System adopts a modular design. It can be flexibly configured according to factors such as the type of conveyed materials, conveying distance, flow rate, and on-site space.
| Configuration Type | Conveying Capacity (T/h) | Conveying Distance (m) | Estimated Investment Cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| Basic (Single-line conveying, manual control) | 10–20 | ≤100 | $1*,*00–$*5,000 |
| Standard (Medium-distance conveying + PLC control) | 20–40 | ≤300 | $*5,000–$4*,000 |
| High-end (Multi-point discharge + intelligent system) | 30–80 | ≤500 | $4*,000–$*5,000 |
The above are the reference prices. The actual price will be determined based on various parameters such as specific working conditions, installation method, control system, and chain material.

Grain Reserve Warehouse Project in an African Country
- Project Challenges: Powdered grains need to be transported to the top of the steel silo, with a long distance and high elevation
- AGICO Configuration: Utilizes an intelligent positive-pressure dense-phase transportation system with an automatic pigging system, enabling intelligent remote control to enhance operational efficiency
- Customer Evaluation: The system operates stably, safely, and is environmentally friendly. They plan to continue collaborating with AGICO when building similar projects in the future.

Powder Transportation System of the Large Cement Plant in Vietnam
- Project Background: The original spiral conveyor and bucket elevator solutions suffered from severe dust leakage, which affected the cleanliness of the production line.
- AGICO Solution: Two sets of positive-pressure dense-phase pneumatic conveying systems were configured, with a 20T/h conveying capacity and a 250-meter distance, achieving stable material supply.
- Customer Feedback:
The dust problem has been completely resolved.
Pipeline transportation replaces the traditional mechanical structure, reducing power consumption by 18%.
The system has operated stably for 2 years without major repairs.
