Description

Bulk Bag Breakers are designed for fully contained discharging of closed bottom bulk bags. Bulk bags are suspended off a spreader bar that ensures that the bag retains its shape after discharge to ensure that the complete bag is emptied. The bag is moved through the front opening of the bulk bag breaker and then dropped onto a fixed four bladed knife which is installed in the hopper. This is designed to cut diagonally across the square bottom panel of the bulk bag. All four triangular flaps then open to discharge the complete contents of the bag. A 20m2 reverse jet pulse filter is mounted in the top enclosure and the exhaust fan ensures a positive inflow of air into the front opening of the bag breaker enclosure thus ensuring that no dust escapes. Dust is discharged back into the hopper when the filter pulses for cleaning. As an option the modular constructions allows the front end bag breaker section to be exchanged for a spouted bag unloader should the need arise. Additional optional extras are explosion panels for potentially explosive dusts as well as outlet screens, vibrating bin dischargers on the outlet. Optional doors can be closed while not unloading bulk bags. For hygroscopic materials the incorporation of a de-humidifier is recommended.
