Resin Conveying; Product Familiarization - NovaTec NovaWheel NWDC Series Instruction Manual

5.2 Resin Conveying

A regenerative blower pulls resin from a bulk container through a pickup wand and flexible
hose to an appropriately-sized vacuum receiver where the material is fed into the drying
hopper, as needed. As the material passes through the drying hopper it is metered through
a vacuum takeoff valve to a machine mount vacuum receiver mounted on the process
machine, thereby maintaining a constant flow of dry material to the feed throat.
