FIBC Big Bag Dischargers: Efficient bulk material unloading

FIBC Big Bag Dischargers are machines that safely unload bulk materials from large, flexible containers called FIBC bags or super sacks.

These dischargers usually have a frame for support, a hoist, and a chute. The setup lifts a bag, puts it over the receiving area, and controls the speed at which it releases the material.

Vibrating motors can adjust the system. This ensures a smooth flow. Additionally, we use longer chutes to avoid spills. We also implement slide valves to regulate the flow rate of the product.

Why use FIBC Big Bag Dischargers?

FIBC Big Bag Discharger systems are crucial in various industries for cost-effective and safe material handling, enhancing efficiency.

They swiftly unload fertilisers, grains, and seeds in agriculture material handling, enabling efficient distribution. In food processing, we handle powders and ingredients carefully to maintain product quality and prevent the release of fine particles.

The pharma sector relies on them in pharmaceutical discharge systems, for contaminant-free release of active ingredients, ensuring stringent quality control. For construction material handling, these dischargers streamline the handling of cement, sand, and aggregates, optimising workflows. FIBC Big Bag Dischargers help chemical manufacturers safely unload different compounds without dust, meeting their needs for secure big bag unloading and discharging.

In short, FIBC Big Bag Dischargers are important for bulk handling materials efficiently, increasing productivity, and maintaining high product quality standards.

Key advantages of a FIBC Big Bag Discharger:

- Reduce product loss: Integrated chutes guide product from bag to receiver, preventing any loss.
- Dust containment: The chute section envelops the lower outlet of the FIBC Big Bag, effectively preventing dust emissions.
- Contamination prevention: The enclosed chute section acts as a barrier, safeguarding against potential contaminants from entering the discharged product.
- Enhanced safety: The secure handling of large, heavy bags significantly improves overall safety protocols.

FIBC Discharger Design
