Q&A: How can I unload Big Bags?
How can I unload Big Bags?
The way of unloading depends on the type of Big Bag.
- A Big Bag with a trunk can be connected with a clamping adapter. The clamping adapter is equipped with a clamp or an inflatable bellows.
- A Big Bag without a trunk can be cut open. Cutting open is done manually or with an unloading station with internal knife. When cutting open manually, there is a risk of product loss due to spillage. The dosing process is difficult to control. In addition, the empty flow process cannot be interrupted. A Big Bag dispenser is a solution for very well-flowing products. A Big Bag dispenser is a tool that is cut / pierced into the bottom or wall of the Big Bag. Less easily flowing product can be unloaded with an unloading station with internal knife. Difficult steaming product requires a larger outflow opening, possibly with sealing and extraction. That depends on the product properties.
