Metal Powder Filling Line
The video shows a system for filling containers or bottles with metal powder, e.g. for additive manufacturing. Such filling systems are used by metal powder manufacturers who use them to supply their customers.
The system first floods the bottles with an inert gas (e.g. argon or nitrogen), then fills them with metal powder and closes the container with a screw lid.
The empty containers are weighed directly before filling (net weight). During filling, the weight is measured continuously and the dosage is adjusted to the gross weight. This tare weighing ensures exact filling within the specified target weight limits.
The video shows the filling of stainless steel powder. The weight specification is 10 kg with a tolerance of 0 to 50 grams. The metal powder is supplied to the system in an IBC container, for example, and conveyed to the filling system by vacuum conveying.
Metal powder dusts can lead to dust explosions. Safe handling of the powder is ensured by designing the system accordingly and using ATEX-certified vacuum conveyors.
Our filling systems can be designed for different container sizes and shapes.
The video shows the test operation of a filling line at Volkmann GmbH before delivery to a customer.

Loading of a bulk material to a vacuum conveying system
มุมมอง 11Kปีที่แล้ว
Powders, granules, and other bulk materials, packed in bags, sacks, and other small containers, are loaded into the bag rip and tip station as the loading station for a vacuum conveyor system. The system can serve a wide range of applications, like the loading of products into a processing machine, a mixer, or an IBC container. This video presents a simple trial setup. Wood pellets are loaded, ...
DPS - Fully automated Depowdering of Metal AM Print Jobs
มุมมอง 1.8Kปีที่แล้ว
For the automatic and complete removal of powder from build jobs after 3D printing a depowdering station was developed by VOLKMANN as part of the IDAM research project. At GKN Additive and BMW AG, these depowdering stations were tested in full scale prototype production lines.

Mushroom-in-water conveying with a Volkmann vacuum conveyor
มุมมอง 9583 ปีที่แล้ว
Volkmann Vacuum Conveyors of the VS and PPC series can be used to transfer liquids with very few modifications. A float valve is used to protect the Vacuum Conveyor and its pump from overfilling. In this video, this is demonstrated using the transport of mushrooms in water as an example. The mushrooms are treated very gently using this method of transport. Some applications: - Conveying of frui...

    This is amazing. I have seen granular products conveyed but never liquids.
