Bulk Bag Discharger

continuous loss-of-weight

Unit is equipped with an activated surge bin and flexible screw conveyor that allow continuous gravimetric discharging directly from bulk bags. Cubic volume of the activated surge bin exceeds that of one full bulk bag, providing ample time for bag changes during which system software switches to volumetric mode, for uninterrupted operation. The bag-to-surge-bin interface consists of a Spout-Lock clamp ring positioned atop a pneumatically actuated Tele-Tube telescoping tube, allowing dust-tight connections and unrestricted flow between the bag spout and activated surge bin, as well as automatic tensioning of the bag as it empties to promote flow and evacuation. The activated surge bin is isolated on rubber mounts and vibrated with an imbalanced weight gyratory motor, promoting uninterrupted flow into the small surge hopper of the flexible screw conveyor whose screw rotation speed is continually varied to maintain a pre-selected gravimetric discharge rate.
