FlowMatic® 04 automatic big bag packaging line

Processed powder: treated maize seeds

Seed conditioning 

This Multinational, an actor on the world seed market, wants a facility located in Brazil for the automatic packaging of corn seeds in big bags (3 million seeds per big bag - 0.9 to 1.2 tons per big bag). Palamatic Process has designed a continuous high flow big bag filling model, called FlowMatic® 04, with speeds up to 20 big bags per hour.

A belt conveyor continuously feeds the 2,000-litre buffer hopper positioned above the big bag filling station. When a big bag is ready to be filled, a pneumatically operated multi-position slide gate valve opens and the filling of the big bag starts. A flexible connection sleeve provides the connection between the slide gate valve and the big bag filling head.
