SOURCING WORKSHEET / FIRST ORDER
Compare quotes from up to 3 factories
FREE basic specification and sourcing-requirements review
Eligible first orders may receive up to 3%
Eligibility applies to qualified business buyers and is confirmed after we review your product, quantity, destination, and sourcing requirements. Final savings depend on supplier confirmation, product type and order value.
Pneumatic conveying system manufacturer quotations only become comparable when each factory prices the same powder, route geometry, conveying mode and receiver boundary. Pneumatic Conveying System Sourcing aligns those assumptions, lists included valves, airlocks, filters and air movers, and keeps installation, shipping, training and commissioning visible as included or extra. We do not manufacture conveying equipment or sell under factory appointment. Engineering acceptance stays between the buyer and the named supplier.
Service stage and responsibilities
Buyer input is the powder identity, breakage and segregation limits, pickup and receiver points, three-phase supply, footprint, quantity and destination. If a silo or mixer already exists, its nozzle, vent and PLC interface belong in the same brief so vacuum or pressure connections are not invented by the bidder.
We check that each reply uses the same conveying mode when claiming throughput, names who sizes receiver-filter pressure losses over the full route, and splits machine, tooling, freight, installation and commissioning. Verbal brochure language stays incomplete until those items appear in the quote file.
The outcome of alignment is a comparison sheet, not a purchase order. Discharge into the next process, cleanout and residual material remain open if the quote only prices a pipeline. Spare parts lists, FAT and SAT belong to the named factory. We do not close gaps with a percentage saving.
Assumptions that must appear on a pneumatic conveying system manufacturer quote include: conveying pressure in barg, gas velocity in m/s, volume rate in m3/h, whether the route is positive-pressure dense phase, dilute phase or vacuum pickup, and which valves plus filter media are included. Adjacent mechanical conveyors or room dust collectors need a separate inquiry even if they share the same room. Public conveying literature may illustrate questions; it does not appoint this site as a brand-appointed reseller or transfer another company’s uptime claims.
Work envelope, connected load, compressed air demand and changeover between powders should be written as supplier confirmations for the named duty. A single certificate on a brochure does not cover the whole line. Suitability requires the factory to answer the intended powder, not a generic velocity chart. If installation, shipping, training or commissioning is missing from the price, we leave it marked extra rather than filling the gap with a guess. Throughput claimed as kg/h without a bulk-density and moisture basis is treated as a nominal figure, not validated output.
Machine price versus installed project cost is a recurring split: pipeline steel, support, electrical, compressed-air preparation, installation crew travel and spare parts can exceed the vessel price. We keep those lines separate so buyers can compare factories on the same total-cost view without inventing a discount percentage. Single-machine quotes that omit upstream isolation and downstream discharge are flagged as incomplete line integration.
