IVISION VACUUM – CENTRALIZED INDUSTRIAL SUCTION SOLUTIONS

Complex challenge? iVision Vacuum finds the solution. Where others stop, we begin.

ADVANTAGES OF CENTRALIZED VACUUM CLEANING

What is a centralized vacuum system?

It is a single, powerful vacuum unit that serves your entire facility through a network of ducts. Like an electrical system: a single power source distributed wherever it’s needed, but only for vacuuming.

Why should you choose a centralized system instead of lots of individual vacuum cleaners?

A centralized system allows you to vacuum from all your machines simultaneously with a single, highly powerful unit.
Eliminate noise in the departments (the engine is far away), centralise collection and disposal, and achieve cleaning efficiency that is impossible with individual vacuum cleaners.

How do I manage material collection with multiple machines?

Everything converges at a single centralized collection station. Instead of emptying 10 different vacuum cleaners, you have a single disposal point.
Time savings, ease of management and maximum cleanliness for the entire facility.

INDUSTRY 4.0 AND SMART CONNECTED

Why should I choose a 4.0 centralized vacuum system?

A centralized 4.0 system monitors the suction status of all your machines and alerts you before they break down, avoiding expensive production downtime. It smartly manages the suction of the entire system, reducing maintenance costs and ensuring production continuity.

Could the 4.0 system compromise the security of my company network?

Absolutely not. Our system only connects to the internet, not your internal network. It’s like having a telephone: you can contact us for support without accessing your company data or servers.

What does predictive maintenance mean on a centralized system?

The system continuously monitors the suction of all connected machines and alerts you when maintenance is required, before a fault occurs. It’s like having a mechanic check on your entire fleet every day.

Is the interface complicated to manage for multiple machines?

No, it’s intuitive and multilingual (5 languages available). From a single dashboard, you can control the vacuuming of all your machines. It includes practical guides that help you troubleshoot without having to call a technician every time.

What are the benefits of keeping System 4.0 active?

If you keep System 4.0 monitoring active and follow scheduled maintenance, iVision guarantees year-after-year warranty renewal. System 4.0 becomes your life insurance for your entire centralized system.

ENERGY EFFICIENCY WITH INVERTER

Why is an inverter important in a centralized system?

The inverter automatically adjusts power based on how many machines are running, like a car’s cruise control. If some machines are off, the vacuum cleaner reduces power, saving energy. It manages by optimizing the whole system.

Does the inverter really prevent clogging with multiple machines connected?

Sì, perché modula la potenza in base alle condizioni reali di tutto l’impianto. Se rileva un inizio di intasamento su una linea, compensa automaticamente aumentando la potenza, senza penalizzare le altre macchine.

Are there other centralized vacuum systems with inverters?

Other systems currently on the market have inverters, but the difference lies in the intelligence of the centralized system. We combine inverters, 4.0 monitoring and automatic management of multiple machines, creating a continuously self- regulating system.

ADAPTIVE CLEANING FILTER CLEANING

Why isn't traditional automatic cleaning optimal for the filter?

Traditional systems always clean with the same intensity, even when the connected machines produce little dirt. It’s like always washing a t-shirt in the washing machine on maximum, even when it’s lightly soiled: sooner or later it will get a hole.

How does the Adaptive Cleaning system work?

The system detects the level of dirt in the filter and automatically adjusts the cleaning intensity. Light production means gentle cleaning. Intense production means vigorous cleaning. It optimizes the entire system.

How much can I actually save on filters with the Adaptive Cleaning system?

The Adaptive Cleaning system can double the life of your filters and reduce compressed air consumption up to 30% because it only cleans when and how much is actually needed for the entire system.

SECURITY AND ALARM SYSTEMS

What happens if the central vacuum stops while the machines are running?

The system immediately sends an alarm to all connected production machines, prompting them to resolve the issue before starting the machine. This prevents any operator from working without vacuuming, protecting health and product quality throughout the plant.

Why do I need an alarm between the central vacuum cleaner and the machines?

If you work with toxic materials (like fiberglass) or produce delicate components (like printed circuit boards), working without vacuum cleaners is dangerous and can damage the product. The alarm simultaneously protects all operators and all production.

Will the system work even if I manage many different machines?

Yes, the system is automatic. You don’t have to do anything: if there is a problem with any connected machine.

ENERGY OPTIMIZATION

How can I optimize consumption when not all the machines are running?

When necessary, we install automatic shut-off valves that “shut off” the lines of idle machines. The centralized vacuum cleaner concentrates all the power only on the active machines, reducing consumption and improving performance.

Does the centralized system work with multiple machines?

Yes, we design every centralised system specifically for each customer. Even if you have machines of different brands and types, the system manages them all seamlessly from a single control unit, adapting to each machine’s specific needs.

MAINTENANCE AND PREVENTION

How do I prevent centralized system pipes from clogging?

We install strategic inspection valves along all lines to allow for cleaning and inspection of the pipes. It’s like having “windows” to look inside the pipes throughout the system and clean them before they clog.

What happens if abrasive materials remain in centralized pipes?

Inspection valves allow you to regularly check and clean the pipes throughout the system, preventing abrasive materials from damaging them. Preventive maintenance can save you thousands of euros in replacements.

SPECIAL SOLUTIONS

Can you create centralized systems for ATEX environments?

Yes, we create Industry 4.0 centralized systems even for ATEX zone 22, a complex technical challenge that few can tackle. Combine explosion- proof safety and Industry 4.0 intelligence in a single solution for multiple machines.

Do you also manufacture stand-alone vacuum cleaners for complex applications?

Absolutely. In addition to centralized systems, we also design individual vacuum cleaners for specific and complex applications. Every need, whether centralized or stand-alone, has its own iVision engineered solution.

How long does it take to get a customized solution?

It depends on the complexity of the application, but our R&D team works quickly. Contact us for a free evaluation: we can often adapt existing solutions to your specific needs quickly.
