Pneumatic tube systems for production samples

Hot steel production samples

The production of steel from molten pig iron requires strict quality control during the ongoing process, with the quickest and most reliable transport to analyse via the pneumatic tube system, which can transport hot steel samples and slag across long distances, without risk or loss to quality.

High-quality technology and workmanship

Robust metal designs of all Sumetzberger system components and tubelines have been in use worldwide for decades and Special carriers made of high-quality steel, guarantee safe and secure transport.

Control and monitoring

The microprocessor control for pneumatic tube systems, specially developed by

Sumetzberger, guarantees maximum safety and minimum repair effort. The software

has predictive maintenance software and the use of inductive tube switches, provides the exact location of the steel carrier in the system in real time.

Hazardous goods production samples

Fully automated systems from Sumetzberger enable samples to be taken from chemical or radioactive substances without endangering employees. Furthermore, time-consuming security measures for entering/leaving closed areas and safe internal transport are not necessary. With this extremely complex network, all steps such as loading, shipping, unloading and return of the shipping carrier are fully automated and the system forms a closed circuit in which the carrier does not leave the system.

Food production samples

There are general and specific hygiene requirements worldwide for the production, treatment and marketing of foodstuffs. For this purpose, Sumetzberger has developed special stainless steel stations and stainless steel tubes, to meet hygiene requirements for shipping from the production facilities to the laboratory. Special Easy Touch Displays additionally guarantee maximum hygiene.

Any food sample that fits into a pneumatic tube carrier, can thus be transported quickly and safely to the laboratory and as a result costly production defects can be avoided. Every day, dairy products, meat products, honey, sugar, maize powder, muesli products and much more, are transported quickly and safely with Sumetzberger pneumatic tube systems worldwide.

Various materials production samples

Pneumatic tube systems from Sumetzberger can transport anything that fits into a shipping carrier - whether liquid, solid, powdery, oily or granular. Together with our customers, standard or special solutions are developed for each material.
