T7 Multi-container Bulk Bag Unloader
System OVerview
Our T7 Multi-container bulk bag unloader is a versatile emptying system that allows processors to discharge materials from bulk bags, rigid bins, boxes/octabins or bags.
This bulk bag unloader employs a controllable unloader and a subframe. A bulk bag or rigid container is placed on the subframe which has fork channels to allow loading onto the unloader. The unloader has an integral hopper and flexible spiral conveyor, which feeds the contents from the bag either volumetrically or by weight to process or packaging machinery. The bulk bag unloader also has an interlocked access door where the operator can untie the spout of a bulk bag, or unload small bags of product into the conveyor. This unit is particularly suitable for batching operations requiring ingredients from several sources and methods of supply.
Features
- Adaptor frame for use with rigid bins
- Allows for changing raw material delivery methods
- Bag dump door
- Full dust control
- Integral conveyor or feeder
- Discharge by volume or weight
HOW IT WORKS & BENEFITS
The T7 Multi-Container Bulk Bag Unloader is designed to accommodate bulk bags, rigid bins & rigid bulk containers such as TOTE® type IBCs (intermediate bulk containers).
The T7 bulk bag unloader design is based on your bulk bag, your rigid IBC dimensions & your application requirements. If required, the T7 system can even handle liquids stored in the rigid containers. Like the T5 Low Headroom Unloader, bulk bags are loaded onto the Support Dish Assembly at ground level & then lifted onto the support frame with a forklift. Rigid containers are simply lifted onto the support frame & solids flow control is regulated by a manual valve. The upper frame includes the bulk bag support dish, while the lower frame is designed with large channels for receiving the upper frame. The design includes a dust seal between the upper & lower sections.
Process Steps
- A rigid container (tote) is placed in the subframe.
- The operator opens a valve below the rigid bin to initial product flow.
