As a link between PMD (Primary Manufactory Division) and SMD (Secondary Manufactory Division) Münstermann supplies pneumatic conveying systems in modular design. In robust piping (Ø 125 mm) the tobacco is transported almost frictionlessly at a speed of 16 - 24 metres/second. 

Transport distances of up to 300 meters can be safely realized with our standard system. The connections between the pipe sections are optimally designed to avoid destruction of the tobacco and thus superfluous fines. All transport pipes are made of food-grade materials. Pipe bends are always designed with radii greater than one meter. In order to guarantee our customers variable production, we supply pipe stations in a sophisticated plug-in system. Optionally, we offer electronic monitoring and visualization of the pipe stations.

Air Speed Control Unit

By using our speed control systems an exact matching of the transport capacity and air speed can be achieved and monitored in the complex piping systems. These control units make a dynamic feeding of the different cigarette making machines possible using a single de-dusting conveying system. The automatic regulation prevents damage to the tobacco during transportation and saves energy due to an intelligent management of the circulation of the air. Production processes are therefore more efficient and safer as a result.
