Material Handling & Material Transport

Bulk materials are transported gently, hygienically, and efficiently with Riedel Filtertechnik’s pneumatic vacuum conveying systems. Our patented FPC technology ensures smooth material transport, minimizes product degradation, and maximizes the quality of your products. Dust can also be efficiently collected and centrally removed.

Our patented SACU tobtronic® is one of the most effective technologies for gently and reliably conveying bulk materials, such as cut tobacco and silica, during pneumatic transport. Thanks to its smart control and various safety features, the SACU tobtronic® enhances material efficiency and process stability throughout the entire production process.

The regulation of process air plays a significant role in many industrial sectors due to its high potential for energy efficiency and process stabilization. Our control unit PAC can be flexibly adapted to any production environment.

For economic reasons and for resource conservation, the recovery of raw materials and the recycling of material residues are essential components of modern production facilities. The more integrated the technical solutions for product recovery, the more efficient and error-free the production processes.

Optimized for use in tobacco processing, our WinU⁺ allows for the online preparation and fully automatic, metered feeding of winnower to the cigarette machine. Our TIRS has been developed to recover tobacco that would otherwise enter the central dust extraction system. With this technology, high-quality tobacco shorts can be fully automatically and online recirculated into the production process.

Flexible pipe connections and pipe stations enable error-free conveying of varying materials according to your dynamic production planning.

Optimized for use in cigarette manufacturing for transporting different tobacco blends, our Blend Selector allows for automatic monitoring of pipe connections, digital authorization of material transport, and integration into the MES. The Riedel T-Switch, on the other hand, can be quickly and easily integrated into existing pneumatic conveying systems to switch transport routes as gently as possible, either manually or via a control system.

In the tobacco industry, tobacco is pneumatically conveyed both in the tobacco preparation phase (Primary) and in cigarette manufacturing (Secondary). The focus is on ensuring tobacco quality, maximizing tobacco yield, and maintaining production cycles. Riedel Filtertechnik, with its advanced technologies and in-depth expertise in tobacco handling and conveying, is a leading partner in the tobacco industry. For decades, we have been providing innovative and tailored solutions in cigarette manufacturing.

In the production of tires and rubber, bulk materials such as silica and carbon black are conveyed. Compared to mechanical conveying methods, pneumatic transport of these raw materials offers significant advantages, including greater flexibility in setup, reduced space requirements, minimized dust exposure, and cleaner material separation. Riedel Filtertechnik provides industry-specific and highly automated systems for material handling in the tire industry.

Whether it’s food, compound feed, or pet food, raw materials as well as intermediate and final products are conveyed in the form of powders, granules, or pellets during production and processing. An integrated pneumatic transport system for these materials brings numerous benefits. In addition to ensuring hygiene and product quality, it also enhances production stability. With solutions from Riedel Filtertechnik, dynamic production cycles and changing formulations can be reliably managed.
