According to the tank structure, the powder granular material truck is divided into three types: horizontal powder material transporter, vertical powder material transporter, and lift powder material transporter.

Advantages and disadvantages of horizontal powder granular material truck
As the name implies, the tank on the horizontal powder granular material truck is placed in the form of lying down. The fluidized bed structure used for auxiliary unloading inside is “V” shaped. When the compressed gas is passed into the lower part of the fluidized bed, the material starts to flow to the lowest point under the action of the fluidized bed and flows out to the storage container through the outlet.
Horizontal powder material truck Advantages.
1、Lower center of gravity of the whole vehicle, more stable driving.
2、The volume of the tank is larger.
3、Faster unloading speed: generally there is only one silo, short pressure building time in the tank, faster unloading.
4, easy to operate when working.
Horizontal powder material truck Disadvantages.
Only used for bulk transportation of powder with good fluidization performance.

Advantages and disadvantages of vertical powder granular material truck
The tank structure of vertical powder granular material truck is composed of several inverted cones and a cylindrical body placed flat. The lower part of each cone is arranged with fluidized bed, and the angle of inclination is large, which can ensure that the materials contained in the tank can slide down to the fluidized bed at the bottom of the cone quickly and smoothly. When the lower part of the fluidized bed is fed with compressed gas, under the action of the fluidized bed, the material will reach the designated storage container through the discharge port via the pipe.

The advantages of vertical powder material truck.
1、The range of materials to be transported is very wide, powder and granular materials, powder and granular materials, lump materials are available. Granular material can be unloaded by pneumatic force, and lump material can be unloaded by gravity self-unloading.
2、The residual material rate is very low. Inclination angle is large, can effectively ensure that the material smoothly slide down to the fluidized bed at the bottom of the cone, and the area of the fluidized bed is small, so the residual rate of the material in the tank is very low.
Vertical powder material truck disadvantages.
1、The center of gravity of the whole vehicle is slightly higher than that of the horizontal powder material truck.
2, the unloading process takes a little longer than the horizontal powder material truck truck of the same volume. As the tank is generally multi-bin structure, after each bin unloading material, the air pressure in the tank needs to be raised to a certain value before the next bin can be unloaded, and the unloading time is longer.
3、The manufacturing process of vertical powder material truck is more complicated than horizontal powder material trucks, and the cost of the whole vehicle is higher.

Analysis of advantages and disadvantages of lift type powder granular material truck
The tank structure of the lift type powder granular material transporter is relatively simple, the front end of the tank is arranged with a hydraulic lifting cylinder, the end of the cylinder is welded with a similar cone structure, and the fluidized bed and discharge outlet are arranged at the bottom of the cone.
Lifting type powder material truck Advantages.
1、Lifting type powder granular material transporter is single bin structure, when the tank is lifted, it is equivalent to a compartment of the vertical powder material truck, so the unloading operation is easy and the unloading speed is faster than both horizontal powder granular material transporter and vertical powder granular material transporter.
2, lifting type powder material trucks loaded a wide range of materials, powder granular material, granular material, lump material are suitable, both pneumatic discharge can also be used for material gravity self-unloading.
3、The fluidized bed area is very small, so the remaining material is very low, almost negligible, because the remaining material is very low, so for food materials and some high-end materials with high quality requirements, the lift type powder material truck has incomparable advantages.
4、The internal structure of the tank of the lift type powder granular material truck is simple, it is convenient to clean and disassemble the fluidized bed, so it can be easily changed to different materials and achieve the purpose of one tank with multiple uses.

The disadvantages of lifting type powder material truck.
1、The wall thickness of the tank is slightly thicker than that of the horizontal and vertical powder granular material transporters.
2, due to the addition of a set of hydraulic lifting system, the one-time investment cost of the whole vehicle is higher; higher requirements for the site and weather when working.
3、The site requirements are high, it should be flat, there should be enough height space, the wind in the working site should not be too big, etc.

Different structure of the powder granular material transporters its adaptation to different working conditions, at present in China the most used or horizontal tank of powder granular material trucks, mainly used in the cement transport industry, I believe that with the development of the transport market, specialization is becoming stronger and stronger, the market share of the other two forms ofpowder material trucks will continue to increase.
