Description Bigbag unloading station
A bigbag unloading station enables safe, fast and ergonomic emptying of bigbags with minimal dust emission. The system reduces manual handling and prevents product loss during the unloading process. By applying vibration technology, pneumatic shaking systems and/or optional breaking units, a stable and controlled product flow is achieved.
Application bigbag unloading station
Bigbags are used for a wide range of bulk solids and bulk materials, depending on the material properties.
Suitable for, among others:
- powders and fine products
- granules and pellets
- flakes and crystalline products
- pellets and coarse bulk materials
Applications can be found in sectors such as food, chemical, recycling and bulk logistics.
Operation bigbag unloading station with spout
In the version with a discharge spout, the bigbag is placed on an unloading platform, after which the product is released in a controlled manner.
- The bottom of the bigbag rests on a platform, creating a dust-tight connection
- The discharge spout is opened via a closable and easily accessible hatch
- The system only opens when the bigbag is correctly positioned
- For poor flowing materials, vibration or shaking systems ensure movement and product flow
Opening with cutting cross
Cutting open the bottom of the bigbag using a cutting cross is a very fast method, but cannot always be applied due to the risk of fibres from the bigbag entering the product.
Advantages bigbag unloading station
- Fully controlled unloading
- No product loss
- Improved ergonomics and reduced manual labour
- Dust-free working environment possible through integrated dust extraction
- Modular and expandable with breaking and dosing units
- Suitable for a wide range of products and industries
Execution options and accessories bigbag unloading station
A bigbag unloading station can be equipped with:
- Vibration units with high frequency to improve flow, for light or fine powders
- Shaking systems with larger amplitude for more compact materials
- For toxic products, a fully enclosed cabin. The bigbag is opened from the outside using gloves
- Cutting cross in a recessed platform instead of opening the spout
- Dust extraction for emission-free unloading and a clean working environment
- Unloading platform in coated steel or stainless steel 304/316
- Adaptation of the design to the specific situation and requirements of the customer
- Control
- with adjustable timer for unloading duration
- start/stop switch
- connection to the PLC or central control system of the customer
- Frame for working with lifting beams where the bigbag is suspended
- Raised frame under the platform with intermediate buffer
- Frame with crane track, trolley and electric hoist for lifting the bigbag and positioning it above a higher unloading platform
- Various versions of the connection to the conveying system
- All materials available in coated steel, stainless steel 304 and stainless steel 316
- A lump breaker under the unloading station for reducing lumps in the product
