Emergency Verification | Can Pumice Floating on Water Be Removed Using Only Compressed Air as a Source?

Conveyor backs used for various transportation applications such as gases and powders in manufacturing sites. We provide pumice collected directly from Okinawa for suction and removal.

The conveyor bag does not use mechanical parts such as fan motors and can operate solely on compressed air as its source. Since there are no obstacles in the flow path, it can easily suck in water and debris without any issues, which raises the possibility of using it for the removal of pumice stones that are covering the seas of Okinawa and causing damage. We decided to test this out. <Product Introduction> The conveyor bag is one of Sanwa's pneumatic equipment, which has been chosen in manufacturing sites for nearly 40 years, with the keyword "just connect compressed air." By simply connecting compressed air, it generates a powerful vacuum and is applied in air transportation systems. Usage Examples: - It can suction, transport, and discharge not only gases and powders but also metal fragments and steel balls used for shot blasting. - Since it has no moving parts and does not use electricity at all, it is effective for transporting and exhausting dangerous gases or mists.

• Material handling systems and equipment

It was manufactured for the purpose of air transport using compressed air. During operation, it does not require a power supply, making it suitable for use in explosion-proof environments.

The conveyor back is a device that enables air transport through a powerful vacuum pressure generated by compressed air as the power source. It has no moving parts and does not require a power supply, making it effective in environments where explosion-proof measures are required, as well as for the transfer and exhaust of gas and mist.

• Material handling systems and equipment

Suction and blow, two functions in one device. This tool enables powerful vacuuming and blowing.

The air amplification air blow nozzle "Round Blow" uses compressed air as its power source, sucking in a large amount of surrounding air and expelling it. The "Round Blow" can be used in two roles as a vacuum system or a powerful air blow device.
