Abstract

See full text

Method for automatically loading feed line with bulk material in suction delivery system having feed line, loading point, reservoir, and at least one material separator arranged at distance to reservoir. Method includes selecting target value for air speed for area of loading point, wherein for area of loading point, minimum target value and maximum target value for air speed are empirically determined from feed line parameters related to feed line and material parameters related to bulk material and values are stored in database. Method includes measuring in area of loading point one of air speed and quantity serving for determination of air speed in feed line and sending target value and measured value of air speed to controller. Method includes controlling air speed to target value via suction capacity, and adding bulk material in metered manner in dependence upon measured value of air speed when target value is reached.
