Our AMC's are an unbeatable package to convey powders, granules, and bulk materials to downstream processes.

01

Impressive Conveying Capability – Up to 24 tons/hr, any length in multiples of 14m.

Moves large volumes of bulk material quickly, much faster than a pneumatic conveyor or a screw feeder.

02

ATEX Compliant

ATEX zone 21 (internal) and zone 22 (external) Hazardous Area Classification for explosive powders.

03

Cost Effective to Operate

With a small 2.2kW drive motor and no internal filter, the AMC has very low operating / maintenance costs compared to pneumatic conveyors.

04

Ideal for cohesive or problematic powders

Vibrated or fluidised inlet and outlets, ideal for the most difficult powders.

05

Dust-Free & Hygienic Operation

Fully sealed tubular design ensures clean processing and safe working environments.

06

Cost Effective to Purchase

Simple mechanical design, without internal filters, means attractive ROI compared to alternatives.

07

Gentle Product Handling

Fluidised material flow, ideal for fragile, friable, or degradable materials.

08

Flexible Layouts

Capable of horizontal, vertical, and multi-directional routing.

09

Frequently Asked Questions

Can AMC systems handle abrasive materials?

Can AMC systems handle abrasive materials?

Yes — material-specific disc compounds and wear-resistant tubing can be supplied for abrasive products.

How energy efficient are AMC conveyors?

How energy efficient are AMC conveyors?

The AMC uses a 2.2 kW motor, they consume far less power than pneumatic systems (5.5kW motors or larger) while simultaneously delivering much higher throughputs. A very large pneumatic system maybe be able to do 10t/hr, the AMC can do 24t/hr max.

Is an Aero Mechanical Conveyor suitable for food processing?

Is an Aero Mechanical Conveyor suitable for food processing?

Yes — AMC systems are widely used in food applications due to their enclosed design, low contamination risk, and gentle material handling.
