Drum Feed System
Direct Feeding from the Drum, No Intermediate Hopper.
The drum feed system draws powder straight from the powder drum with a transfer pump and delivers it to the booth. A scale in the base measures the powder in the drum by weight; the vibrating base plate and back-air from the suction tube keep the powder flowing.
From Drum to Booth, No Intermediate Hopper.
The drum feed system is designed to use powder directly from the drum it is supplied in. An embossed-tip suction tube immersed in the drum picks up the powder, and the transfer pump delivers it to the booth or any required point. There is no need to transfer the powder into a separate hopper.
The system has no fluidized bed. The base the drum stands on carries a weighing system and a vibration motor: the scale measures the powder in the drum by weight to show the fill level, while the vibration prevents bridging and keeps the powder flowing to the suction point.
Air is blown back through the suction tube to fluidize the powder in the drum. Compacted powder loosens and suction continues steadily.
Weighed, Fluidized, Continuously Flowing Powder.
Weight-Based Level Monitoring
A scale in the base measures the powder in the drum by weight.
Vibrating Base Plate
Prevents bridging and keeps powder flowing to the suction point.
Back-Air Fluidizing
Air blown through the suction tube loosens the powder in the drum.
Delivery by Transfer Pump
Powder is delivered to the booth or any required point by the transfer pump.

The Powder Feed Chain.
Drum feeding is where the feed chain starts: virgin powder comes straight from the drum without an intermediate hopper, mixes with recovered powder and reaches the guns through the injectors.
