In the meantime, we have become one of the leading components suppliers for bulk materials. Our customers benefit from our innovative solutions and their numerous advantages.

Rotary feeders High-tech rotary feeders Our rotary feeders are so efficient that even a smaller design will perform just as well. Thanks to the intelligent feeder design, product damage is almost history! Gap-free seals Gap-free sealing system The sealing system incorporated in our highpressure rotary feeders with operating pressures up to 3.5 bar has been specially designed to eliminate gaps through which fine dust or powder may penetrate. Seals in conventional sealing systems are subject to rapid wear caused by penetrating material. Our seals, however, can last at least 12 months if installed...

Purge gas connections for purge gas flow For a long service life Minimizing leakage Rotary shaft seals have become the standard modern sealing system for rotating shafts. Although the reliability of their function is very good for use with gases or liquids at limited pressures, difficulties may occur if they are used with powders, e.g. when powder particles penetrate between the sealing lip and the sealing surface. Then, the seal rings are often worn after a few weeks only. Therefore, rotary feeders designed by Zeppelin are equipped with a purge gas connection. The purge gas flow reduces abrasion...

Rotary feeders Maximum flexibility Our versatile rotary feeder program offers ideal solutions for various fields of application and installations. Whether flexible speed regulation by chain transmission or flange-mounted or interlocked maintenance-free drive units, we customize your rotary feeder in accordance with the specific conditions on site and your requirements.

Inflatable sealing system (close-up view) – prevents the penetration of impurities Inflatable sealing system in operating mode Maximum efficiency Inflated for longer life diverter valves The large range of Zeppelin diverter valves offers the right solution for any application. Our latest generation of diverter valves is based on an especially intelligent design principle: they can be tailored to the simplest standard application or the most complicated one. Diverter valves are used for directing the flow of bulk materials without losses caused by leakage. Reliable switching and perfect sealing...

Diverter valves Just replace the inserts! Often the simplest solutions require the most development work. This is the case for the static sealing system incorporated in our diverter valves. Our engineers have designed several seal edges that ensure a reliable sealing and minimize friction during switching. Special shaping ensures that the gasket is fixed tightly in the groove bed. The effort has paid off for our customers: additional control interlocks and the actuation of additional instruments are no longer necessary; exchanging the seal has been facilitated and can be realized during the regular...
