However, settling for the status quo could mean missing out on important opportunities for energy and operational optimization. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When power consumption, product integrity, filtration, quietness, and the need for multipoint distribution become decisive factors, evaluating an alternative is not only useful, but necessary.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>HOW MECHANICAL AND AERO-MECHANICAL CONVEYORS WORK<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Mechanical disc conveyors boast a history spanning over sixty years: their invention dates back to 1960, the year the first patent was filed. Our company&#8217;s history is rooted in this innovation. <\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In mechanical conveyors, a chain or wire rope with discs molded at regular intervals runs inside a closed piping circuit. The chain, driven by a motor, drags the product from the loading point to one or more discharge points.Nei convogliatori meccanici, una catena o fune con dei dischi stampati ad intervalli regolari scorre all\u2019interno di un circuito di tubazioni chiuse. La catena, azionata da un motore, trascina il prodotto dal punto di carico fino a uno o pi\u00f9 punti di scarico. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exactly as in pneumatic systems (both dense and dilute phase), the product travels in a totally closed environment, eliminating dust dispersion in the workplace. Furthermore, the flexibility of the layout and the length of the path are highly customizable thanks to the use of special idler corners (return pulleys). <\/span><\/p>\n<h3><strong>ARE MECHANICAL CONVEYORS ALWAYS SUPERIOR TO PNEUMATIC CONVEYING?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">We define these technologies as &#8220;alternatives&#8221; precisely because both can prove to be extremely effective depending on the application context.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Short distances and low throughputs: If the distance between the loading point and the discharge point is very short and the throughput is minimal, the optimal choice might fall on a small pneumatic system, a screw conveyor, or a flexible spiral conveyor.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Frequent washing (CIP): In the case of continuous and recurring Clean-in-Place washes, pneumatic conveying has fewer natural dead spots. If the goal is to handle many different materials on the same line with zero contamination tolerance, air offers an intrinsic advantage. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The wear factor: There is often a fear of wear on moving mechanical parts. Although friction exists, it falls within normal routine maintenance management. Under standard operating conditions (with non-abrasive materials and periodic checks), a chain can easily reach a useful life of 3 to 5 years.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><strong>WHEN DOES THE WIRE ROPE OR CHAIN CONVEYOR BECOME THE IDEAL CHOICE?<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To answer this question, we need to look back at the first paragraph.<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Energy savings: This is the most obvious and impactful factor, both economically and ecologically. Tubular mechanical conveyors can move up to 60 m\u00b3\/h with a power of just 15 kW. If we look at aero-mechanical conveyors\u2014which exploit dynamic fluidization without requiring external air generators\u2014it is possible to reach 35 m\u00b3\/h with a consumption of only 3 kW.  <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Product and mixture integrity: When preserving the homogeneity of the material is fundamental, the low speed of the chain (about 0.5 m\/s) ensures extremely gentle conveying that does not crush or unmix pre-dosed compounds, as the product remains protected in the &#8220;pockets&#8221; between one disc and the next.<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Acoustic comfort: Since there are no compressors or vacuum pumps, the only potential source of noise is the sliding of the discs in the tube. However, the technopolymer that the discs are made of and the very presence of the transported powder act as insulators, drastically reducing the acoustic impact in the facility. <\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Automation and multiple discharges<\/strong>: In addition to the ability to lift material vertically up to 15-20 meters with a single machine (using <a href=\"https:\/\/hiway.it\/en\/products\/aero-mechanical-conveyor-tve\/\">aero-mechanical systems<\/a>), <a href=\"https:\/\/hiway.it\/en\/products\/mechanical-uni-conveyor\/\">mechanical conveyors<\/a> allow the integration of multiple loading points and infinite partializable discharge points, managed automatically via PLC for total process automation.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-large wp-image-3550 aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/hiway.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Confronto-trasporto-meccanico-pneumatico-1024x576.png\" alt=\"MECHANICAL TRANSPORT Gentle material transport Low transport speed No use of compressors Flexible over long distances Simple maintenance PNEUMATIC TRANSPORT Movement via air flow Generally high speed, requires large amounts of air Excellent for suction from multiple points Requires filtration and air systems\" width=\"800\" height=\"450\" srcset=\"https:\/\/hiway.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Confronto-trasporto-meccanico-pneumatico-1024x576.png 1024w, https:\/\/hiway.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Confronto-trasporto-meccanico-pneumatico-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/hiway.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Confronto-trasporto-meccanico-pneumatico.png 1672w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 800px) 100vw, 800px\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>CONCLUSIONS<\/strong><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stating that there is an absolute best conveying method for industrial powders would be a mistake.
