About MAB Maschinen Apparatebau SA
MAB Maschinen Apparatebau SA was founded in 1974 and began with dense-phase low-speed pneumatic conveying systems (dense phase low-speed pneumatic conveying). The company develops and manufactures custom pneumatic conveying systems for bulk materials in powder or granule form, often as turnkey complete systems. The product range includes energy-saving rotary valves of the ROTOVEYOR™ brand, Pulseveyor systems, pipe switch valves and pressure vessels. The systems are designed as open-loop systems with air or as closed-loop systems with nitrogen. AISI 304L and plastic (PA-6/nylon) are used as system materials. Customers include the chemical, textile, plastics, pharmaceutical and cement industries as well as food & beverage. The headquarters with manufacturing is located in Genestrerio in Ticino (Switzerland); systems are in operation in Europe, Asia and America.
