The new vacuum and suction unit from MG2: higher performance and lower consumption

As part of its constant search for innovative solutions, MG2 is presenting its new vacuum/suction unit capable of reducing electrical consumption by 45% compared to the previous version while delivering higher efficiency and performance.

The vacuum/suction unit is supplied with MG2 machines and is designed to perform three functions: opening the capsules by means of a vacuum; holding the capsules securely in place during the working phases; and extracting the dust generated during operation of the machine.

Continuous operation of the vacuum/suction unit guarantees full efficiency of the machine in terms of cleaning and operation thanks to the integration of a suction pump and filters.

Advanced functions

The MG2 technical team has optimised performance while reducing consumption and noise levels.

Unlike on the previous system, the high efficiency fans do not always operate at maximum speed as suction and operation are automatically controlled according to the machine’s real operating requirements.

The cyclone was developed entirely by the internal R&D department and features advanced functions that enable the air to be separated effectively from the dust prior to the filtering phase, thereby keeping the filters cleaner and more efficient.

A product recovery container equipped with maximum level detectors allows the product to be recovered. Moreover, all components can be easily disassembled without tools, ensuring ease of maintenance.

MG2 also improved the compactness of the new unit by reducing the number of connecting pipes between the suction unit and the machine (by combining the utilities for capsule handling with those for suction).

The unit is equipped with silencers to reduce noise levels at the fan outlets, inverters for speed control and a display which provides diagnostic information about the unit to facilitate the operator’s work during the control operations.
