1,Recommended Conveyor Types for PVC Powder 
Screw Conveyor (Auger Conveyor) 
Best for: Short to medium distances, controlled feeding, enclosed dust-free transfer. 
Pros: 
Cost-effective 
Easy to control flow rate 
Fully enclosed, reducing dust 

2,Vacuum Conveyor (Pneumatic Vacuum Transfer System) 
Best for: Clean, dust-free, fully enclosed transfer over flexible routes 
Pros: 
Excellent for hygiene and dust control 
Gentle on materials 
Minimal floor space 

3,Pressure (Blower) Conveying System 
Best for: Long distances or high-volume transfer 
Pros: 
Continuous transfer over long distances 
Can integrate with silos, mixers, and hoppers 

4,Chain Disc Conveyor (Tubular Drag Conveyor) 
Best for: Gentle, low-speed transfer in enclosed systems 
Pros: 
Minimal product degradation 
Enclosed and clean 
Suitable for conveying to multiple points Important Considerations for PVC Powder: 
Dust control is critical - PVC powder is fine and can cause serious environmental and health issues. 
Explosion risk - In certain conditions, fine powders can be combustible. Use ATEX-certified equipment if necessary. 
Material compatibility - Choose stainless steel or coated surfaces to prevent material sticking and contamination. 
Flow behavior - PVC powder may be cohesive or bridging; use flow aids if needed.
