Industrial Blowers Services in the US and UK

Industrial Blower Services, known as IBS, is a company that supplies and distributes a large variety of premium brands of industrial blowers, vacuums and pumps. This specific category of Industrial equipment is used extensively across a comprehensive number of diverse industries and are popular because of the specific function they provide. Vacuums, pumps and blowers are required for the positive displacing of air or water, which in turn permits the removal of air or gas molecules from a sealed volume, thereby creating a vacuum allowing air or water to flow through the void that has been created.

While this technological application may well be one of the oldest manufacturing and engineering processes to still be in use today (stemming from as early as the 1st Industrial revolution), the successful application of this process across such a variety of industries is evident in the value which is added to many production environments. Pumps and vacuums, commonly found in use in commercial, chemical, food processing, medical, petro-chemical and the water supply industries, are as invaluable as they are long-lasting and when properly installed and utilised, hardy rivalries against sustainable wear and tear.

 

     

Vacuums, pumps and blowers are said to be the stalwarts of many an industry and IBS are equally known and respected for range of pump and vacuum solutions, which are available and ready to ship to your company at any given time. As such your business will always have at its fingertips, the ability to both avoid and prevent unplanned production time, which may result from incorrect or poorly functioning equipment.

Industrial Blower Services Industry Leaders

Vacuum pump technology was first utilised since the first champions of the industrial revolutions brought this technology, the brainwave of scientist Otto von Guericke, into existence.  Developed and improved upon to create what has become one of the fundamental building blocks of industry in the modern era, with its hundreds of applications in several different industry sectors, vacuum technology has been said to be endlessly evolving, proving it one of the most critical invention of all the industrial revolutions. With the 4th Industrial Revolution in full swing, is there still a future for this type of technology in industry or are we looking at the end of an era for this science-based technical tool?

IBS has been in the vacuum blower industry for more then 3 decades and believes that from a current economic stance on business, the application of vacuum pump technology plays as important a role as ever before and that there no signs of this trend waning in the near future.  Certainly, the current application of the use of vacuum technology in retail, manufacturing and everyday packaging industries, such as plastic molding, washing systems in food processing, underwater aeration with commercial and household applications, PET coating on plastic bottles and dry freezing of packaged food and beverages, is a going concern. However, as the call for safer and more environmentally friendly, sustainability becomes the focus of growing concerns for the health and well-being of the globe and humanity itself, will we begin to see a decrease in the use of vacuum technology?

The answer is a simple no. More and more, it becomes evident that vacuum technology is here to stay. Although common applications may well change due to the changing demands from governments to make swift and steady changes towards sustainable business, vacuum technology is already being tested and proving vital in the developments of the 4IR. It is predicted that we will witness vital incremental improvements on seals and gauges, calibration methods with far superior accuracy will appear and even more specialised custom-designed vacuum facilities being created to accommodate rings, reactors, and portable industrial vacuum units. Side Channel Blowers and industrial Vacuum units stand to be developed as new products begin to appear as the market begins to adapt with the introduction of solid-state electronics.

  The prediction is that the vacuum pumps of the near-future will not only be more reliable with the capacity for vastly improved operations for distinctly longer periods of time, but will also prove themselves to be vital to the development of lasers, superconductors, catalysis as well as solar energy, microprocessors and computers. While it is hard to know for sure the exact developmental path of vacuum technology, it would be premature to begin a move away from what may be viewed as a technology whose time has come.

 

 

 

 

 

IBS Blowers is excited to be in an industry, which is crucial to the growth and development of industry and will continue to provide a vast array of products, both new and reconditioned, which can be recommended with confidence from now into the future.

Initially named the “water ring pump” the liquid ring vacuum pump is used for creating vacuum in moist gases and vapours. Typically utilised in the chemical industry, liquid ring vacuums, like many other vacuum systems, operate on the principle of positive displacement of liquid, channelling the liquid in a piston-like fashion to achieve displacement. Operating a relatively low temperatures liquid ring vacuum pumps are ideal for the condensation of vapours essentially allowing them to function, in part, as condensers, drastically reducing volume. Adaptable in that they are able to fit the medium which is being pumped, the liquid ring pump offers excellent benefits in that the lower operational temperatures, allows for the successful for the pumping of polymers which are especially temperature sensitive and prove to be far less problematic when involved in the pumping of the more volatile materials.

IBS liquid ring vacuum pumps range include the following sizes:

– RVS 3÷16 /M directly coupled to the flange of an electric motor and the impeller is supported by the electric motor standard bearings;

– > RVS 17÷21 /SG are supported by a bearing support with two sealed bearings life lubricated with grease;

– RVS 23÷60 /CT bearing support with bearings grease lubricated.

Siemens Turbomachinery HV Turbo Blowers from IBS

High quality industrial equipment is the key to the success for many industries and for many industrial companies that span the greater UK, most of whom turn to IBS for many of their industrial equipment requirements. Industrial Blower services consistently provide quality services and brands for the purpose of displacing water, waste, powders, and granules which are required to be displaced as either part of the industrial and manufacturing process, or in order to produce equipment which has this capability. There are numerous industrial applications for pressurized roots blower, from pneumatic conveying and dust filtering to industrial vacuum cleaning.  Roots type blowers are renowned for being vital for the purpose of positive displacement and IBS is renowned for being the supplier of new and reconditioned blowers and vacuums.

Hire Equipment   Blowers  On Site Services

Used to create a constant flow of air for the purpose of positive displacement, roots type blowers consist of two rotors which are both symmetrical and identical. These two rotors have two, or sometimes three, meshing lobes all of which are contained with a case that is essentially airtight. Within and outlet ports on either side of the airtight case, the case is without valves. The two internal rotors rotate in a counter-clockwise position from each other and is synchronized with the use of a set of gear wheels. While the internal lobes are motivated by the gear wheels to spin, the air is drawn into the inlet port, by the motion of the lobes and then ejected through the outlet port. Depending on the speed of the rotation, the displacement of air will have varying strength. This is a simple and infinitely effective mechanism which has required little to no improvement since the inception of the design and industry utilizes this simple and effective motion of air for displacement applicable in many ways, including, for combustion, drying and dehydrating, aerating and agitation of liquids and pneumatic conveying.

IBS offers professional services and products such as Siemens Turbomachinery HV Turbo Blowers, Robuschi Blowers, Side channel blowers, and aerzen blowers all of which are quality products themselves.

Industrial Blower Services Specialising in Roots Type Blowers

Industries heavily rely on the condition of machinery and equipment to be maintained in order to sustain peak performance at all times. In the highly competitive manufacturing and production industry planned preventative maintenance forms one of the cornerstones for the efficient running of any factory or industrial environment. A scheduled maintenance routine of servicing will improve the longevity of the machines as opposed to running to breaking point and facing emergency repairs and unscheduled downtime. Blowers and Vacuums are no different and require maintenance at regular intervals especially prior to the production season’s high-demand period unless the business runs on high production all year round, in which instance it is productive to departmentalise the relevant equipment and stagger periods of maintenance.

   

Implementing a proactive servicing schedule promotes actively avoiding unnecessary wear and tear on blowers and pumps, accelerating the life span of the equipment, and resulting in enormous cost-savings down the line. Unintended interruptions to production resulting from breakages and faulty pumps and blowers may well be the additional cost that your business simply cannot afford. Additional expenses acquired through the repairing or replacing of your pumps is exacerbated by the reduction or stopping of production time or similar far-reaching knock-on effects
