Description
IBC Container emptying - IBCFLOW® 01 - Manual or automatic deconditioning
The IBC Container unloader ensures containment and optimization of the flow. The IBC container discharge station is designed to efficiently and hygienically discharge and convey your pulverulent materials to your industrial production line.
From manual to fully automatic container discharing, the results are many: increased throughput and productivity, improved integration controls, reduced operating costs in terms of manpower and product losses, or complete unloading of containers without contamination of your bulk materials.
Automatic IBC container emptying
A pneumatic actuator (cylinder) ensures the opening and closing of the industrial containers.
The opening and closing speed is easily managed thanks to the installation, in the pneumatic control cabinet, and a flow regulator
The cylinder is available with an option of electromagnetic sensors to ensure proper positioning of the valve axis and connection to the mixer.
Once in position, the action on the pneumatic cylinder ensures the opening of the valve by a mechanical cam system.
At the outlet of the butterfly valve, a seal attached to the structure ensures a tight connection.
A vibrating structure (optional) will allow you to ensure good flow of bulk materials and powders.
Manual IBC container emptying
The presence of a centring device allows to gain in productivity during the installation of the manual emptying station. A socket joint ensures a tight connection to the container to ensure optimal containment of the bulk material without contamination.
The container is loaded using a forklift or electric hoist. The operator then opens the drain valve manually.
Note: if the product does not generate dust, the unloading station is not necessary. The container is emptied in "open sky" (example of product: plastic granulate).
Our IBC container emptying stations are also available custom-made to best meet your needs.
