Our engineers and specialists have several centuries of combined experience in pneumatic conveying. We work closely with customers and partners to continuously seek broader applications for our products, processes and technologies. This enables us to meet the ever-increasing demands of evolving and diverse industries. From efficient and low-maintenance pipeline conveying, to our low-power fluidisation systems and gravity conveyors, our wide range of products and solutions consistently meets the specialized needs of our customers, worldwide.
Whether you receive and distribute material by ship, barge, rail, or truck, we have pneumatic systems designed to make your terminal operate efficiently and reliably: Docksider™ and KOVAKO® high-capacity ship and barge unloaders Airslide® gravity conveyors and Ful-Floor™ fluidized reclaim systems Fuller-Kinyon® Pumps, Ful-Vane™ compressors and related products The technology and commitment to product development and testing have made us the leading supplier of storage silo fluidization and withdrawal. We engineer all our storage silos to maximize the benefits of fluidization while minimizing power consumption.
Our Ful-Floor™ reclaim systems use our industry-proven Airslide® fabric anchored to nearly 100% of the floor area. Embedded aeration troughs and piping eliminate restrictions that can inhibit material flow. The results: complete reclaim of your stored material with minimal floor slope, low average power and low maintenance. Reclaim from storage is just one part of terminal system management solutions. We can design and supply your complete control system to distribute the material flow, monitor inventory and transfer between storage facilities or directly to trucks, railcars, barges or ships.
An industry standard, the original heavy-duty, screw-type pneumatic Fuller-Kinyon® pump began a long line of innovative products engineered for proven reliability and dependable performance. Pump systems using Fuller-Kinyon pumps are most commonly used to convey dry, free-flowing, pulverized materials from grinding mills, transfer materials from silo to silo, transfer dust from collectors, and load and unload railcars, ships and barges.
Our Airslide® air-gravity conveying system uses the forces of gravity to do most of the work with no moving parts. Material is fluidised through a porous media with low-pressure air, and flow is achieved by sloping the Airslide conveyor to match the fluidised angle of repose of the powdered material. These air-gravity systems provide high-capacity material handling while offering many economic and environmental advantages. Benefits include low energy requirements, and since the system is installed overhead, valuable floor space and added headroom are available for other purposes.
Developed from Fuller® design and technology, our Ful-Vane™ Compressors provide more compression with less energy. Our unique design features include large air flows, low mechanical and drive losses, and high compression efficiency. With only two bearings and three moving parts, the Ful-Vane compressor boasts a simple design that is easily field repairable. As a result of minimal internal and mechanical losses, Ful-Vane compressors have higher operating efficiencies. Since the vanes compensate for wear, the compressor maintains its design efficiency over time.
Our pneumatic blending silos are engineered to maximize the benefits of fluidization and gravity technologies over mechanical blending. This technology gives you operating efficiency, low power consumption, flexibility and increased productivity. Our product range can combine storage and blending for space-saving plant layouts.
Our heavy-duty feeders, airlocks and valves are field-proven in countless applications. They help maximize the performance of both pressure and vacuum pneumatic systems. Standard feeders and airlocks such as our V-Series feeder are constructed of cast iron, or a combination of iron and steel, and are also available in special combinations of stainless steel, aluminum and/or ductile iron. Feeders and airlocks are available with a special abrasion-resistant ceramic lining for long operating life, reducing downtime and requiring minimal maintenance.
Our heavy-duty quality diverter valves are widely used in pneumatic conveying and related industries, including specialized equipment for the chemical, coal, power, mining, pulp and paper, petroleum, and metals processing industries. We provide a valve solution for virtually every application.

A New Era for the Dragon Lady
Fuller Technologies (previously FLSmidth Cement) and Dragon Cement tell the story of how an existing self-discharging barge was upgraded with a Fuller-Kinyon® N Pump to significantly increase efficiency and simplicity.
Collaboration leads to success at Ozinga’s new terminal
Ozinga is a fifth-generation family business that has been supplying the construction industry throughout Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin, Michigan and South Florida for almost a century. What started as a small coal yard has grown into a premier supplier of concrete and materials solutions. As business has grown, the company needed a terminal in the Port of Palm Beach to support their concrete business. This was a challenging location. The site is in a tourist area subject to high interest from local government with considerable desire to maintain a pleasing aesthetic. It was also a complex project because Ozinga wanted to utilize a mechanical ship unloader with a pneumatic conveying system – the first time, to the team’s knowledge, a solution quite like this had been attempted worldwide. Thankfully, Ozinga had already assembled the perfect team to pull it off following a successful first project in Chicago with Dome Technology and Fuller.

The Evolution of Fuller-Kinyon® Pumps – workhorses of industry
Originally designed in 1919 as a solution for the safe transportation of pulverised fuels, the Fuller-Kinyon® screw pump has proven itself to be a must-have component in materials handling systems worldwide. Over more than a century, the pump has evolved to handle greater throughputs, longer conveying distances, and the increasing complexities of today’s dry bulk materials processes. In that time, it has been widely applied across the cement and other dry bulk materials handling industries, developing reputation as a real workhorse – as is testified by the continuing operation of some of the original FK Pumps.
Increasing energy efficiency in pneumatic conveying systems
Pneumatic conveying is a clean, quick and reliable way of moving materials around the plant and is almost always the most efficient means of transporting materials around a site. In those instances where pneumatic conveying does not look like an efficient option, the reason is typically given as high energy consumption. However, the introduction of a new rotary airlock, the V-Series Feeder / Airlock, reduces the installed power of pneumatic conveying systems and lowers operating costs significantly.
