Dust problems caused by emptying sacks of fine, aerated or volatile powders are eliminated with the Spiroflow DBE range. This equipment not only eradicates the dust problems caused by manually emptying sacks, but also the subsequent disposal of empty sacks. This ensures a healthy environment is maintained in the process area as well as reducing maintenance and repair problems caused by powder contamination to surrounding machinery.

Sack Tip Stations

The basic DBE comprises an open fronted sack tip cabinet with a dust extraction outlet for connection to a separate dust collector or existing extraction plant. A sack is placed on the mesh support shelf and manually slit, the contents falling directly into the inlet of a flexible screw convetor, aero mechanical conveyor or vacuum conveyor.
