Determining your requirements.

SELECT FOR INFORMATION ON OUR COMPREHENSIVE RANGE OF PRODUCTS.

Before specifying a particular weigh filler, or indeed any options which may enhance the production process, some key factors need to be considered. This not only helps to assess a customer's own particular requirements, but also assists Spiroflow's design engineers in determining the system best suited to their needs.

Q. How do we handle the FIBCs?

Q. What bag style and size do we use?

Q. How do we contain dust?

bulk bag fillers

A. By pallet or by bag loop. Pallets have the advantage of being handled only once, and are also easier to remove after the bags are filled.

A. Apart from the type of product, the bag needs to optimise all available space in terms of safe transport and storage.

A. For filling products where a bag liner is used, a pneumatically operated inflatable neck seal effectively contains the dust during filling.

Q. Can the equipment be adapted to fill other types of container?

Q. Does the product need to be vibrated?

Q. Will we need a bag liner?

A. Yes. Spiroflow supplies a range of options for the filling of rigid bins, drums and octabins.

A. Usually, yes. Vibration at the base of the unit or a spinning head deaerates and compacts the product so it fills every corner of the bag.

A. If the product is very fine, you probaby will, to prevent it leaking from the bag. However, various alternatives can be used such as special bag seams or coated FIBC material.

static grounding automated filling

Q. Will the equipment need to be earthed?

Q. Can automation improve our process?

A. If the product is susceptible to static build-up, it could pose an explosion risk. Static grounding can combat this problem.

A. This depends on your particular situation and volume requirements, although it can be considered a possibility for future needs.
