Bulk Bag Unloading Equipment

Efficient Material Handling 

A bulk bag unloader, also known as a Super Sack unloader, FIBC unloader (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Container), or Bulk Bag Discharger, is designed to safely and efficiently unload large bags containing bulk materials. These bags are typically used to store and transport dry, granular, or powdery substances in industries like food processing, chemicals, agriculture, and construction. 

Benefits of a Bulk Bag Unloader 

► Efficient Unloading: Speed up your unloading process compared to manual methods, reducing time and labor costs. 

► Enhanced Safety: Minimize risks of spills, dust exposure, and contamination with integrated dust collection and sealed discharge systems. 

► Versatility and Flexibility: Accommodates a wide range of bulk bag sizes (up to 4,000 lbs/1814 kg) with adjustable frames and lifting mechanisms. 

► Improved Material Flow: Features like vibration systems, pneumatic flow assistance, and agitators ensure smooth discharge even for clumpy or sticky materials. 

► Automation and Accuracy: Automated discharge control systems ensure consistent flow rates and precision in material handling. 

Models

Hoist and Trolley

  • 1-ton or 2-ton hoists and trolleys are available.
  • Load-tested and certified bag adapters.

Forklift

  • The bag adaptor is removed and lowered via fork truck for installation of the bulk bag.
  • Target plates on the top of the frame allow the forklift driver to know that the bag adaptor is securely in place.
  • Adjustable frame to accommodate various bag heights.

Pneumatic Pinch Valve

If the bag spout needs to be closed while the material is still in the bag, the Pneumatic Pinch Valve is recommended.

Access Chamber

Used for untying the bag spout. Common for most application, this safety enhancement reduces dust exposure.

Designed for Safety, Efficiency, and Precision in Bulk Material Handling 

A bulk bag filler is an industrial machine designed to fill large, flexible containers known as bulk bags, FIBCs (Flexible Intermediate Bulk Containers), or Super Sacks with dry bulk materials. These fillers are commonly used in industries that handle powders, granules, pellets, or other dry bulk products, such as food processing, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and mining.

Benefits of a Bulk Bag Filler: 

► Enhanced Safety and Stability: Bulk bag filler holds the bag securely, preventing tipping and ensuring safe operation. The safety hooks firmly attach the bag loops, while the inflatable bladder on the fill head keeps the fill spout snugly in place. 

► Efficient and Consistent Filling: Designed to work seamlessly with upstream equipment, bag filling machine provides a smooth and controlled material flow, optimizing filling efficiency and reducing product waste. 

► Accurate Weight Control: With precise weight measurement capabilities, FIBC bag filling equipment helps you achieve accurate target weights, ensuring consistent product output. 

► Easy Operation and Maintenance: The simple and intuitive control system allows operators to easily inflate and deflate the bladder, monitor the filling process, and safely release the filled bag onto a pallet with minimal effort.
