I currently have many cnc router tables with blowers pulling a vacuum. These blowers are regenerative type blowers and can hold down a great amount of vacuum. I love these blowers because they are basically maintenance free compared to the high vacuum pumps that require vanes, grease, rotors and all of the other good stuff.The best regenerative blowers I have bought come from a company called Atlantic Blowers. Their wesbite is www.atlanticblowers.com.
I need to know if anyone has tried using the regenerative blowers to transport wood chips. If so, do you know how to calculate what type of blower I need?
