No dust bags
Flexicon Europe has launched the BFF series bulk bag discharger for operation with in-line, pneumatic conveying systems. The new system eliminates dust during untying, discharging, collapsing, retying and removing bulk bags, while increasing safety and promoting the complete discharge of bag contents.
The design features a new bag-to-conveyor interface comprising two sections. The upper section contains a clamp ring positioned above a pneumatically actuated telescoping tube, allowing dust-tight connections between the bag spout and hopper, as well as automatic tensioning of the bag as it empties, to promote flow and evacuation.
The lower section contains a small surge hopper that directs material into a pneumatic pick-up adapter with four conveying line connections.
