Pneumofore S.p.A.

Pneumofore’s legendary UV Series models currently installed in industrial plants worldwide evacuate a monstruous billion+ m3 each year.

And not only more reliably, but also more efficiently than any other vacuum pump. These pumps cover a wide vacuum range and offer single stage 250 to 6.520 m3/h [148 to 3.854 cfm] with the residual pressure of 0,5 to 450 mbar(a) [29,90 to 16,62 inHg V]. Capacity and residual pressure are extended with multiple stage machines. The family of UV pumps includes several versions, described below, for a wide variety of applications.

Since 1923 Pneumofore has designed and produced Rotary Vane compressors and vacuum pumps featuring original solutions. The constant efforts in Research and Development are at the base of the new K Series gas compressors.
The K Series gas compressors are the solution for gas treatment and processing applications that need high energy savings, low operational cost and constant efficiency over decades. With 2.5 to 10 bar(g) pressure range and up to 2690 m3/h, the K Series covers the gas compression requirements in many industries, from the oil&gas and energy sectors to chemicals, from the metal industry to food processing and more. The high-quality, sturdy design of these gas compressors meets the most stringent safety criteria, including the Atex directive for Zone 1. The K Series gas compressors handle a wide range of gases, including: methane (CH4), ethane (C2H6), carbon dioxide (CO2), nitrogen (N2), biogas and natural gas.
Pneumofore Rotary Vane technology, which is at the core of the K Series, ensures trouble-free operation, stable performance over the years and the lowest Life Cycle Cost available in the market.
 

Pneumofore’s legendary A Series models currently installed in industrial plants worldwide compress a monstruous billion+ m3 each year.
And not only more reliably, but also more efficiently than any other air compressor. Extraordinary expertise culminates in the range of A Compressors, from 67 to 5.360 m3/h [40 to 3155 cfm], based on Rotary Vane technology, which established Pneumofore’s legendary reputation for reliability and durability through decades of Research & Development. Pneumofore compressors are the first choice for users seeking the lowest Life Cycle Cost and the highest possible return of their investment.

The Italian glassmaker Vetrerie Meridionali, part of the O-I Group, world’s leader in the hollow glass industry, has relied on Pneumofore vacuum pumps since 1971. Vacuum is very important in glass manufacturing: it optimizes the glass moulding process, it improves the container glass quality and it increases the production speed of the IS machines. After 50 years of constant efficiency and non-stop vacuum, the company renewed its collaboration with Pneumofore with a new centralized, air-cooled vacuum systems designed for higher efficiency and unmatchable energy savings.

The glass container manufacturing industry consumes a large quantity of compressed air in order to drive the forming machines to produce bottles. Comparatively, it requires lower pressure compressed air. In this video, Pneumofore A Series Air Compressors are successfully used for bottle manufacturing at Changyu Glass, a leading cointainer glass manufacturer and the largest wine bottles manufacturer in China.
