Separate-vacuum Hopper Loader: The Core Solution for Automated Feeding in Plastic Processing

As a professional manufacturer of plastic processing equipment with years of expertise in plastic machinery manufacturing, this video comprehensively showcases our flagship product—the Separate-vacuum Hopper Loader. From its precision separate-design to intelligent operational logic, we delve into how this equipment addresses the pain points of traditional feeding methods, becoming a vital machine for elevating your factory’s automation level and production efficiency.

Ⅰ. Core Features of Separate-Vacuum Hopper Loader

1. Independent Separation, Efficient and Clean

Our Separate-vacuum Hopper Loader is not merely a material handling tool but an automated feeding unit integrating advanced filtration technology and intelligent control systems. Its core advantage lies in the revolutionary improvements brought by its “separate” design:

2. Independent Host and Hopper Design

Our equipment is different from traditional loaders. It separates the vacuum unit (the main part) from the material storage hopper. First, the main unit can be placed on the floor or wall, away from the machines that do the molding or extruding. This keeps it away from the heat and shaking from those machines. This helps the motors and fans last longer. They break down less often—over 50% less than older designs. Second, the hopper can be put right above the machine. This saves space and works well in small workshops with lots of machines.

3. High-Efficiency Pulse-Jet Dust Removal System

To solve dust and tiny material problems in plastic conveying, we use a separate high-efficiency filter cartridge with a pulse-jet cleaning device. The system automatically cleans the filter cartridges using pulse-jet backflushing. This happens based on set timers or when it senses a pressure difference. This keeps the filters clear and separates dust from the raw materials. It ensures that he plastic entering the machine is clean. For companies making high-quality optical or medical plastic products, this is essential for good product quality.

4. Intelligent Microcomputer Control System

The equipment features a proprietary smart control panel, allowing users to easily set material suction duration, waiting time, and achieve signal linkage with injection molding machines. The system also includes low-material alerts and filter clogging alarms, enhancing production management transparency and efficiency.

Ⅱ. Application Scenarios of Separate-vacuum Hopper Loader

Our Vacuum Hopper Loader Automatic addresses common pain points in modern plastic processing plants, delivering tangible value across diverse applications:

1. Injection Molding Enterprises

In large workshops with multiple injection molding machines operating side-by-side, manual feeding is not only inefficient and labor-intensive but also prone to downtime or empty shots, causing scrap due to delayed material supply. Our equipment enables either centralized control of multiple hoppers by a single host machine or independent configuration per machine, delivering 24/7 uninterrupted, fully automated material feeding. This completely liberates labor and eliminates production losses caused by human error.

2. Extrusion Production Lines

For pipe, sheet, or pelletizing lines, these processes need a very steady and continuous supply of material. Our plastic hopper loader provides a consistent flow of material. This ensures the extruder feeds evenly. This important step ensures the final product has the correct size and a good surface quality.

3. Food and Pharmaceutical Packaging Industries

These industries impose extremely stringent requirements on the production environment, cleanliness, and the purity of raw materials. Our separated design, combined with an efficient filtration system, effectively prevents dust contamination and complies with production standards such as GMP.

Ⅲ. Key Operation and Maintenance Guidelines

1. Initial Installation and Commissioning

Ensure the main unit is placed on a level surface with adequate ventilation during installation. When connecting conveying pipes, minimize the number of elbows and ensure the shortest, straightest possible route to reduce air resistance.

2. Daily Maintenance Points

Inspect the filter element surface condition daily and set a reasonable backflush interval (typically 30-60 minutes) based on dust generation frequency. Check the fan belt tension quarterly and lubricate moving parts with grease.

3. Compatibility Notes

This equipment handles most granular and powdered plastic materials, including PP, PE, ABS, PC, PVC, PETG, etc. For materials with extremely poor flowability or moisture susceptibility, we recommend adding our agitator accessory or pairing with a dryer.
