Our blower packages provide the pressurized air source needed to move dry bulk materials — cement, fly ash, plastic pellets, and grain — from storage pigs, silos, tanks, and railcars through pneumatic conveying lines to the point of use.

A dry bulk blower package is the air source used to move dry bulk material through a pneumatic conveying line. The blower is powered by either an electric motor or a diesel engine and supplies the airflow needed to transfer material from equipment such as a storage pig, silo, or railcar.
Trailers of Texas offers both electric and diesel-powered configurations.
A pneumatic conveying system uses moving air inside a pipeline to carry dry bulk material from one location to another.
The blower creates the airflow. That airflow moves the material through the conveying line from the storage source—such as a storage pig, silo, tank, or railcar—to the receiving point.
Pneumatic blower systems can be used to transfer many dry bulk products, including cement, fly ash, plastic pellets, grain, and other dry materials that are suitable for pneumatic conveying.
The right blower setup depends on your required airflow and pressure, available power, portability needs, and expected runtime.
Choose electric when the equipment will operate at a fixed location with the required electrical service available.
Choose diesel when you need a self-contained power source or when electrical service is not available where the blower will operate.
Yes. A properly configured blower package can be used to provide the airflow needed for pneumatic railcar unloading and dry bulk material transfer.
The material can be moved from the railcar through a conveying line to a silo, storage vessel, or other receiving point. The required blower capacity depends on the railcar setup, material, piping, and unloading requirements.
