About VAC-U-MAX
VAC-U-MAX, established in 1954 and headquartered in Belleville, New Jersey, designs and manufactures pneumatic conveying systems and industrial vacuum cleaning equipment for dry bulk materials.
The company serves food processing, pharmaceutical, chemical, and plastics operations, and configures each system to the client's material and application rather than supplying fixed packages.
Product lines
The portfolio covers five main equipment families:
- Pneumatic conveying systems: move powders, granules, and other dry bulk materials through pipelines using vacuum or air pressure, keeping the transfer enclosed and dust-free.
- Industrial vacuum cleaners: portable and central systems for heavy-duty housekeeping. They handle dust, debris, and spills in production environments.
- Aero-mechanical conveyors: a continuous loop of steel cable with evenly spaced discs transfers bulk powders at high speed with minimal product degradation.
- Flexible screw conveyors: a flexible screw housed in a tube moves dry bulk materials in any direction, vertical or horizontal, at comparatively low cost.
- Pulsonic bin activators: controlled air pulses prevent bridging and rat-holing, so material discharges consistently from storage bins and hoppers.
Design emphasis
According to the manufacturer, each system is tailored to the specific application, built from materials selected for rigorous industrial service, and engineered to limit energy consumption. Enclosed transfer and dust control support workplace safety and product integrity, which matters wherever hygiene or contamination limits apply.
Markets served
- Food processing: sanitary conveying systems that meet hygiene standards.
- Pharmaceuticals: contamination-free material transfer.
- Chemicals: safe handling of hazardous and non-hazardous materials.
- Plastics: conveying of pellets, powders, and regrind.
- Aerospace and metal additive manufacturing: metal powder recovery systems.
Core capabilities
- Pneumatic conveying systems (vacuum and pressure) for powders and granules
- Industrial vacuum cleaners in portable and central configurations
- Aero-mechanical conveyors for high-speed powder transfer
- Flexible screw conveyors for multi-directional transfer
- Pulsonic bin activators for bin and hopper discharge
Key benefits
- Improved Productivity: Automated material handling reduces manual labor, leading to faster processing times and increased output.
- Cost Savings: Efficient systems lower operational costs through reduced energy consumption and maintenance expenses.
- Enhanced Safety: Minimizing dust and spillage creates a safer working environment, reducing the risk of accidents and health hazards.
- Quality Assurance: Controlled material handling processes maintain product integrity, ensuring consistent quality.
